Ghostlight Ensemble Announces Cast, Production Team for Invaders of Mathmatica

CHICAGO - EntSun -- Ghostlight Ensemble is pleased to announce the cast and production team of Invaders of Mathmatica written by Ensemble Member Nick Conrad – the company's first full production for young audiences since 2019.

The new work is set on the planet of Mathmatica where math and science are revered above all else and their technology far exceeds those of the other worlds in their solar system. But their culture has advanced without artistic expression and with a fear of outsiders. The planet has shut itself off from other worlds, figuratively and literally.

When three outsiders crash on the surface bringing with them music, art and dance, the princess of Mathmatica begins to question the logic of their isolationist tendencies and the history she's always been taught.

The cast is Kendal Romero as Princess V, Peter Leonedis as King Algebra, D'Angelo Smith as Digit, Sasha Vulovic as Sway, Sam Campos as Hue and Gabriella Smurawa as Aria. Sarah Beth Johnson and Julia Namm are the understudies.

Conrad and fellow Ensemble Member Maria Burnham direct. Esau Andaleon is the stage manager; Ashley E. Benson is the costumer and Ensemble Member Chad Wise is the production manager.

"I am excited to see what this exceptionally talented cast and production crew will create," Conrad said. "It is my hope that the subtext of this play motivates our audience to realize that we can learn a lot from people who are different than us. When we drop our 'shields' and work together we can accomplish anything."

Invaders of Mathmatica runs over two weekends in February 8-9 and February 15-16 at 2 p.m. at the Bughouse Theater in Chicago. More information is available at https://www.ghostlightensemble.com/invaders-of-mathmatica.
