Obie Award winner Quincy Tyler Bernstine will lead the cast of six as Mary, alongside Karen Kandel and Lucy Taylor, with additional casting to be announced at a later date.

The creative team behind Marys Seacole features scenic design by Mariana Sanchez, costume design by Kaye Voyce, lighting design by Jiyoun Chang, and sound design by Palmer Hefferan.
