In addition to needing any age/ethnicity performer to read Stage Directions, principal roles being casted are:
Otis Franklin ~ 35-year-old who looks older is a proud, stern religious man, not educated, but he does read and write.
Edna Franklin ~ 32-year-old who looks older is an illiterate, quiet, religious woman.
Maggie Franklin ~ 15-year-old is academically gifted, feisty and defiant.
Annie Mae Franklin ~ 12-year-old, quiet and studious, she doesn't have the boldness of her older sister.
Miss Connie Noble ~ 25-year-old is a well spoken, highly educated schoolteacher from the North who is outspoken.
Adam Sato ~ 14-year-old Japanese American is bright and articulate, but confused and frightened.
This Staged Reading performance is scheduled as part of the USA and Los Angeles City Juneteenth Official Holiday weekend celebrations 1:00pm PST Saturday, June 21, 2025. https://www.bfatheatre.org
The Script's synopsis supplied by author Rhodes states: "When an African American family harbors a Japanese American boy who escapes from a World War II detention camp in a small southern town, the family is faced with a dilemma. Should they face the possibility of treason charges or become complicit with the boy's immoral imprisonment? While the debate rages, an unexpected act of violence sets the scene for impending disaster. With their backs against the wall, and no justice in sight for their family or for the boy, they all become forced migrants, as they escape the south and head north."
