This is the last weekend of the inaugural season of Cleveland State University's Summer Repertory Theatre!  It's your last chance to see the critically acclaimed Booth and The Robber Bridegroom ("here to serve up exactly the right antidote to our sorrow"—Tony Brown, P.D.)

The Robber Bridegroom is set in 1795 Mississippi and           tells the zany upbeat story of a charming gentleman bandit and his           pursuit of the daughter of a rich plantation owner. There are talking           goats and ravens, a wicked stepmother (who plots to kill her step-daughter)           and a rival bandit who carries around his brother’s talking head           in a trunk -- the antics of all driven by a rousing bluegrass score           by Robert Waldman.

Booth is a story within the story of a famous family           made infamous by the 1865 assassination of Abraham Lincoln. At the           play’s center, the father, Junius, is the leading actor of American           theatre. An illness forces his youngest son, Edwin, to stand in for           his ailing father, propelling the youngest Booth to instant stardom           and igniting a feuding rivalry between father and son both on and off           the stage.

Featuring a mix of Broadway and LA actors (Jessica Anderson—"innocence and desire",  Andrew Call—"boyish verve as the gentleman bandit", Everett Quinton—"...must be seen to be believed", and Carl Whidden "appropriately stiff and clueless") local favorites (Holly Holsinger, Geoff Knox, Jill Levin), and up-and-coming Cleveland State students, CSU Summer Rep Theatre has created something truly unique and fresh downtown.

The Robber Bridegroom runs Thursday and Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm.
Booth runs Friday at 8pm.
