This staging of Distant Survivors seems like a perfect touring show for high schools, universities, JCCs and other clubs, and places of worship. Wouldn't it be wonderful if The Z and your cast could reach a broader audience! I saw the play on the last Sunday. I was amazed by the skill of the actors.
