Photo Flash: Sneak Peek at Josh Odor, Cynthia Marker and More in Steep Theatre's MOMENT

Steep Theatre welcomes back Artistic Associate and recent Jeff Award-winning director Jonathan Berry this summer for their U.S. Premiere of Deirdre Kinahan's Moment. Steep's U.S. premiere of Moment opens Thursday, July 12th. The playwright Ms. Kinahan will be coming to Chicago to take in the production August 16th through 18th.  BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the production below.

On a seemingly ordinary evening an Irish family sits down to tea. The difference tonight is that Nial is home – back from prison having committed a dark crime many years earlier with some news to share and a conscience to clear. Fast, witty and frighteningly real, Moment takes you on a journey through trauma wrapped up in tablecloths and teacake.

Moment will feature Steep Ensemble Members James Allen (Festen, Book of Days), Alex Gillmor (Festen, Harper Regan), Cynthia Marker (The Hollow Lands, Book of Days), Melissa Riemer (Festen, Harper Regan) and Julia Siple (Festen, Harper Regan). Long-time Steep friend Josh Odor and new-comers Grace Melon and Carey Burton round out the cast. The production's Design Team includes Set Designer Dan Stratton (Festen, Love and Money) Lighting Designer Sarah Hughey (Festen, Parlour Song), Jeff Award-winning Costume Designer Alison Siple (The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, 2,000 Feet Away), Jeff Award-winning Sound Designer Kevin O'Donnell, Props Designer Maria DeFabo, Dialect Coach Kendra Thulin, Dramaturg Kristin Leahey and Stage Manager Jon Ravenscroft.
