Richard Rogers, a senior theatre major from Kerrville, directs playwright Michael Roderick’s story of Donald, who is awakened in the middle of the night by two peculiar strangers who have the power to change his life, all depending on the color of his socks.
The cast features Houston freshman Blayn Larson as Donald; Copperas Cove junior Bailey Van Hecke as Bernice; Porter senior Delaney Brittingham as Shirley; Edinburg junior Makayla Moreno as Dayna; and Wylie junior Drake St. Pierre as Bo.
The production crew includes Valeria De la Cruz, Dallas junior, as stage manager; Mathew Kilgore, Houston senior, scenic designer; Kaitlyn Hall, Rockwall senior, costume designer; Kaylee Satterfield, Hutto junior, lighting designer; Tommy Ross Vest, Sherman sophomore, sound designer; and Jenna Alley, Kingwood sophomore, properties master.
A May candidate for graduation, Rogers has been involved in theatre productions for a number of years but only recently began directing. Upon graduation, he hopes to join a traveling troupe.
Faculty production advisor for the play is Rick Jones.
