About the Cast of If These Walls Could Talk
The actors are a phenomenal group of talented people. Most of them have acted in many plays and are a seasoned, professional troupe that just happen to have disabilities. The cast is led by the Dynamic Team of Jonathan Nardella and Adam Matos. These two incredible actors draw in the audience with their chemistry. Veteran actors, Adam Palmer, Chris Whitney and Leslie Schapira bring real heartfelt performances as they also pull you further into the story. Seasoned actors Alexander Blue, Sebastian Newman, Richard Lochiatto and Patrick O'Brien deliver outstanding performances that will make you question “man's inhumanity to man.” The cast also features incredible performances by Alexandra Gully, Jevon Howe, Cathy Patton, Jill Love and Lamar Forte. Narrators John Connolly and Arthur Lobo help guide the audience one scene at a time into the actual lives of people with disabilities. Denise Brown-Tynes, Victor King, Sean Alailima and Wendell Baynes round out our main cast. The rest of the cast includes a total of 40 members from the Cambridge Program.
