Interrobang Theatre Project has announced the cast and production team for Lee Blessing’s FOR THE LOYAL, directed by Co-Artistic Director James Yost.

The production features ensemble members Sarah Gise as Mia and Matthew Nerber as Toby with Rob Frankel as Carlson, Richard Hatcher as The Boy and Josh Zagoren as Hale.

The creative team includes Pauline Olesky (scenic design), Rebecca Bartle (lighting design), (sound design), Hannah Wolff (asst. director) and Devonte Washington (stage manager).

For Toby and Mia, college football and family are one and the same; he has a new coaching job for a top team, and they are happily expecting their first born. But when Toby gets Mia enmeshed in an unseemly team secret, she is forced to decide where her loyalties truly lie. Inspired by the Penn State sexual abuse scandal, FOR THE LOYAL takes an unconventional and provocative look at how one woman traverses a no-win situation.

FOR THE LOYAL will play January 2 – February 4, 2018 at The Athenaeum Theatre (Studio 1), 2936 N. Southport Ave. in Chicago. Tickets are currently available at www.interrobangtheatre.org, by calling (773) 935-6875 or in person at The Athenaeum Theatre Box Office.
