Information about this production is scant and has been pieced together through actor CVs and is not be complete. The information may not be entirely accurate as there is some discrepancy in the date of production on actors' CVs with 2000 and 2001 both listed. We have used 2001, as that is the date used by the majority of those listed. The theatre company that produced the show was most likely 50 Dolla Playas, but as we have found no programme we have just listed the venue here until we can verify the accuracy of individual websites. We also cannot confirm the dates of the production.
