After "Street. Art. Prophets." and the site-specific, "San Diego, I Love You" Circle Circle dot dot officially opened the third production in their second season, "DerbyWise". Artistic Director of Circle Circle dot dot and Playwright of "DerbyWise", Katherine Harroff, Co-Directs this production with Company Member and Scenic Designer, Shaun Tuazon. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The all-alpha-female world of the San Diego Derby Darlings can seem like an alternate universe filled with new rules, new names, new spouses, and in many cases new identities. Based on stories from local Roller Derby team the San Diego Derby Dolls, "DerbyWise" is a journey through the eyes of budding Roller Derby star, Erika "Jezebel" Simms, who takes on this new world and all of the complications that this endeavor entails. Throughout her history as a Darling, Jezebel is faced with much turmoil from her teammates- but it's what's going on within the athlete that sets this story in motion, and asks audiences the question: is it the woman that makes the Derby, or the Derby that makes the woman?

Featuring the all-female cast of Samantha Wynn Greenstone I, Kat Brown, Monique Hanson, Kathryn Byrd, Kristin McReddie, Jyl Kaneshiro, Cory Hammond, Tiffany Tang, Molly Maslak, & Hailee Byrd.

Circle Circle dot dot hosted a show to support the San Diego Derby Dolls and proceeds from that performance are to go directly to the team. "DerbyWise" runs through April 20th. Tickets are available online at www.circle2dot2.com or at the door.
