The cast includes: Katie Caussin (Gwen), Katy Carolina Collins (Claudia-Louise), Jackson Evans (Randy), Emjoy Gavino (Desiree), Lori McClain (Ravonka), and Lindsey Pearlman (Brooke).

The creative team includes Kate James and Tim Sniffen (authors), Eric Hoff (director), Theresa Akers (set design), John Kelly (lighting design), Katharine Horowitz (sound design), and Mieka Van Der Ploeg (costume Designer).
