The creative team includes scenic designer Takeshi Kata, costume designer Sara Ryung Clement, lighting designer Philip Rosenberg, sound designer and composer Kate Marvin, puppet designer James Ortiz, puppetry by Will Gallacher, hair and makeup designer Roxanne De Luna, and fight and intimacy director Rocío Mendez.

Tickets for the live stream are $49 and are available here.
