This staged reading is a presentation of a play chosen via our Read to Relate programming.
Toni Stone is an encyclopedia of baseball stats. She’s got a great arm. And she doesn’t understand why she can’t play with the boys. About the first woman to go pro in the Negro League and featuring a bullpen of players crossing age, race and gender to portray all supporting roles, Toni Stone is a vibrant new play about staying in the game, playing hard, playing smart and playing your own way.
Please be advised that this production contains racial slurs, adult and sexual content, and strong language.
