Photos from the 1998 production of "Kudzu" at Ford's Theatre in Washington D.C.

Kevin Carolan (Nasal) belts "Air Nasal!" as Rodney Hicks (Maurice) and Jimmy Ludwig (Kudzu) cheer him on.

Donna English (Veranda) seduces Jimmy Ludwig (Kudzu) to a tempestuous tango as she sings her theme song,  "Mine."

(L-R) Chris Frank, Clay Buckner, Ed Butler, Bland Simpson, and Jack Herrick of The Red Clay Ramblers play the good ol' boys who loaf around Uncle Dub's (Bland Simpson) service station. They also double as the spiffy gospel quartet, The Bypass Boys, as well as the Kabuki Brothers (Butler and Herrick) and Mystic Pilgrim (Frank).

Jimmy Ludwig (Kudzu) joins Tim Hodgin  (Rev. Will B. Dunn) and Beth Leavel (Mama Dubose) as they contemplate how "The Lord Works in Mysterious Ways."
