In student theater, you see a lot of political plays. But this piece sees things from both sides. On one hand, it gives this perspective of harsh, fascist law and how terrible that is, but it also shows the other side and their perspective. I respect that in a play.

It talks a lot about the loss of rights, things we're starting to see in day-to-day politics.

It's been nice to cast age-appropriate. Usually you just work with people in your own age range, so it's been great having a couple guys who are 40-plus.

Bone and Skin, two millers thin, / Would starve us all, or near it; / But be it known to Skin and Bone / That Flesh and Blood can't bear it.

I shall prove it - as clear as a whistle.

Christians awake, salute the happy morn, / Whereon the Saviour of the world was born.

It's rare that you get the rights to such a recent, successful play as this.
