Casting is complete for Fabulation, or the Re-Education of Undine, a new work by two-time Pulitzer winner Lynn Nottage, appearing at off-Broadway's Signature Theatre this winter. Obie winner Lileana Blain-Cruz will direct the previously announced production, beginning previews on November 19 with an opening set for December 10.
