Toni Stone is an encyclopedia of baseball stats. She's got a great arm. And she doesn't understand why she can't play with the boys. Stone knocks it out of the park as the first woman to go pro in the Negro Leagues. Featuring a bullpen of players crossing age, race and gender to portray all supporting roles, Toni Stone is a vibrant new play about staying in the game, playing hard, playing smart, and playing your own way.

The creative team includes Camille A. Brown(Choreography), Riccardo Hernandez (Sets), Allen Lee Hughes (lights), Dede Ayite(Costumes), Daniel Baker & Aaron Meicht(Original Music & Sound Design).
