The cast includes TACT company members Kelly McAndrew (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof ), Tracy Middendorf (Ah, Wilderness!), Jeff Talbott (Sly Fox) and guest artists Todd Lawson (Summer and Smoke) and Ted Koch (The Pillowman).
Here's how the show is billed: "In Abundance, the breathtaking tall tale of Bess and Macon, two mail-order brides are lured to the plains of Wyoming by the promise of new beginnings. As wild and unpredictable as the untamed West itself, this fierce and funny adventure spans a 25-year journey, unearthing along the way the dark underside of American mythology and the unbreakable bonds of female friendship."
