After the success of the BIG RIVER tour, I decided to utilize the talents and camaraderie of the cast and mounted a December 2005 reading in New York City, produced by Jamie McGonnigal and directed by Erick Devine. The cast included BIG RIVER alumni Stanley Bahorek, Erin Eichberg, Kevin Massey, George McDaniel, Cathy Newman, Guthrie Nutter, Melissa Van Der Schyff, and Alexandria Wailes, who were joined by Shonn Wiley as Christian.
