The Caucasian Chalk Circle is the story of an infant of ruling class parents who is abandoned during a military uprising. He is adopted by a peasant girl who raises him as her own. As the boy is about to inherit great wealth, the birth mother returns to claim him. To determine who gets the boy, the ancient test of the Chalk Circle is invoked.

Set design is by Josh Anderson of Lonoke with costume design by Haley Tynes of Shirley, both 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Theatre students. Lighting design is by Dr. Greg Blakey, resident designer with stage management by 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Theatre student, Sara Sharos of Bentonville
