In these divided times, THE UNDERLYING CHRIS serves as a celebration of our differences, our individuality, and the many mysterious, difficult, and beautiful things we share simply by being alive.

The full creative team for The Underlying Chris includes Scenic Design By Arnulfo Maldonado, Costume Design By Dede Ayite, Lighting Design By Amith Chandrashaker, Sound Design By Dan Moses Schreier, And Casting By Telsey + Company.

The Underlying Chris is co-commissioned by Center Theatre Group and Second Stage Theater. The commission is supported by a grant from the Harold and Mimi Steinberg Charitable Trust.
