BASEBALL TROUBLE

“The Information She Carried” tells the story of a possibly cursed baseball. In 1920, Ray Chapman became the only Major League Baseball player to be killed by a baseball during a game. In a twist that appealed to believers in the supernatural, the same ball was later accidentally used during a high-school baseball game and seriously injured the third baseman. David Williams’s play tells the story of a conspiracy theorist who attempts to steal the “Chapman Death Ball,” convinced that it holds otherworldly powers. Carolyn Malone directs the W and W production.
