MEET THE CAST

SAM COLE

as MAY WALLACE

Some women carry entire families on their backs.

May Wallace is a devoted mother doing everything she can to provide, protect, and hold her family together.

She works long hours.

Makes sacrifices nobody sees.

And loves her children with everything she has.

But even the strongest mothers cannot always protect their children from the pain they carry.

As secrets surface and tensions rise, May is forced to confront every parent’s greatest fear:

What if love isn’t enough to save the people you love most?

Experience a powerful story of motherhood, sacrifice, resilience, and unconditional love.

Meet Tommy

Tommy is the kind of young man who always seems to have something to say.

He’s confident.
He’s outspoken.
He’s loyal to the people he cares about.

But like many young men, Tommy is learning how to navigate life while carrying the weight of expectations, friendships, and the challenges that come with growing up.

Behind every decision is a young person trying to find their place in a world that doesn’t always make it easy.

Tommy reminds us that our youth are more than the mistakes they make or the labels placed on them. They are still growing, still learning, and still becoming who they are meant to be.

🎭 Portrayed by Chris Denny

Come watch Chris bring Tommy’s story to life in The Story of Derrick Wallace.

📍 Drake Theater
📅 June 18–20

This is more than a play.
