This Weekend
Big [BOX} Continues!

Two months of workshop performances and
productions giving artists the opportunity to
experiment with new works on CPT's Main Stage.  


January 10-12 – Rasheryl McCreary
Scat! is a jazz play that uses drama and music to explore the life of
Ella Fitzgerald. Three actress/singers paint a fascinating portrait of
Ella’s life and times, using biographical stories, some of Ella’s
greatest songs, and, of course, improvisatory scat solos. Scat! brings
Ella back to life: from her first appearance as a gawky, painfully shy 16
year-old hopeful at the Apollo Theatre to her solo success and world-wide
acclaim. Actor/writer/director Rasheryl McCreary is known to Cleveland
audiences for her work in such productions as The Amen Corner (Cleveland
Play House), Truth (Dobama), Summer and Smoke and One Flea Spare (CPT). 

January 17-19 – Aaron Rapljenovic and Robert Wesner
Dancer/choreographers Rapljenovic and Wesner share their interpretation
of the development of humanity in seven stages, from primal beginnings to
spiritual awakening through enlightenment. Sculpting time and space using
music, movement and visual arts, they will explore universal themes that
influence all of us. 

January 24-26 – Michael D. Sepesy   
Welcome to Loserville! A cavalcade of mediocrity, Loserville satirizes
the American experience through a series of serio-comic monologues about
losers. 

Jan 31-Feb.  1  In·let Dance Theatre 
In·let Dance Theatre (IDT) is one of Cleveland’s newest contemporary
dance companies. In·let Dance Theatre’s mission is to create and perform
contemporary dance at a high level of quality, skill and innovation.
In·let Dance Theatre uses the art form of dance to bring about personal
development in the lives of individuals through training and mentoring,
and to speak creatively about life and the issues we all face. IDT will
perform works from their repertory and premiere a new work, “Nachalah
(River).” The new work, set to original score by composer Ryan Lott,
investigates images derived from metaphoric and symbolic uses of rivers
in literature and art. 

February 7-9 – Christopher Johnston
Writer/Director Christopher Johnston’s Theories of Relativity is a
one-act play that considers the good and bad but all too-human aspects of
long-term relationships between men and women. Representative of this
broad spectrum of experiences, the play builds on a number of images of
light and darkness as well as the distinctive language of relationships.
Written for one male and one female actor who represent the universal
"man and woman" rather than specific, individual characters, the play
features five stylistically different but thematically connected scenes 


February 14-16 – Wild Plum Theatre Company
Dealing expressly with gay, lesbian, bi and transgender issues, Wild Plum
brings life to new works and new voices to classics. Working through a
collaborative effort of playwriting salons and workshops to empower
authors who wish to transcend stereotypes and gender bias. Big [BOX]
marks the debut of this promising new company, led by Artistic Director
Denise Astorino. 

February 21-23 – Greg Vovos
Director Greg Vovos tackles Eric Kaiser’s new play, which is something of
a cross between Boyz N the Hood and the work of Samuel Beckett. Lounging
in bed your entire life in a giant steel room, watching your veins
disappear, betting your toes away, all the while, having your own
personal electronic assistants act out your every whim, dream and desire.
The future never looked so bright. But, of course some things don’t
change….no matter how comfortable your bed is. 

February 28 – March 2 – David Hansen
“There is no word for the parent of a dead child.” Join David Hansen for
I Hate This, a solo performance that takes you from the moment his son
was born and through the year that follows ... but not in that order. An
honest, horrible, and even humorous trip through the reality of
stillbirth. 

Tickets are $10 per show.
Friday through Sunday.  
Fridays, Saturdays : 8PM 
Sundays:  3PM

Call CPT for more details.
