With the crack of a bat, Marcenia Lyle rounds the bases with ease and slides into home. Catching the Moon, a blues-infused musical, tells the spirited story of a young Black girl who grew up to become “Toni Stone,” the first woman to play for an all-male professional baseball team.
As a kid in the 1930s, Marcenia could outrun, outplay, and outshine anyone on the field—but she had to fight for every inning she got. When opportunity knocks in the form of a summer baseball camp run by the legendary Gabby Street, she faces a new challenge: proving she belongs in the game, no matter what the rules say.
Bursting with rhythm, drive, and heart, Catching the Moon celebrates the power of determination, the thrill of the game, and the courage it takes to change it forever.

What happens when the woman asking for help and the woman deciding whether she deserves it have more in common than either is willing to admit?
The Welfare Queen is a two-person play set inside a worn Department of Family and Children Services office in the contemporary South. Through humor, confrontation, and spoken word, the play follows Idea Jasmine, a whimsical young woman applying for food stamps while pursuing her dream of opening a hair studio, and Masque Hollow, a blunt, rule-hugging caseworker nearing retirement. As their meetings unfold, both women are forced to the stories they've been told about poverty, motherhood, and success. When Idea publicly exposes Ms. Hollow's remarks, the backlash threatens to close the very office serving families like her own, forcing both women to reckon with the consequences of their choices.
