Southern Rapture Creative

Director
Karrie WaaralaThis is Karrie's second time directing a play by Eric Coble for PTD, following The Hat Box in 2025. She has appeared onstage in a number of PTD shows, most recently as Emilia in Othello (a collaboration with Brevity Shakespeare). Karrie would like to thank this fabulous cast for their enthusiasm and magic, Rebecca Lane and Dusty Ladwig for all their hard work, and Jerry Doty for wearing multiple hats, including Producer, Lead Builder, and all-around wonderful husband. This performance is dedicated to her Uncle Clif, who was one of the first of the angels.

Assistant Director / Stage Manager
Rebecca LaneThis is Rebecca's first time as an assistant director! Seeing things from this side certainly opened her eyes to all the work that goes on for the other side of the stage. She hopes to someday direct as well. She is normally found on stage acting (mostly with PTD) or in the box office taking your money with a smile! She hopes you laugh and cry (maybe at the same time) and that this wonderful story touches your heart.
