LATE-NIGHT SHOW ADDED! SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15TH AT 10:30pm!

 

The critics are raving: 

 

"Enormously entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny with a sobering
message tucked between innuendo and ribald double entendres. Director
Scott Plate skyrockets the fast-paced, 95-minute parody to cosmic
heights with a quintet of sharp-shooting actors. Levity abounds in this
sparkling comedy, regardless of one's sexual proclivities." - Fran
Heller, Cleveland Jewish News

 

"An affectionate parodistic flashback...What is charming about the
evening is not only its loving kidding of a gentler time, but its sweet,
nonmilitant proclamation of a thoroughly innocent, if fanciful,
lifestyle...You just yearn to ask the circulating waitress for "Another
round of that, please." - James Damico, Free Times

 

"A sensational production by Cleveland Public Theatre.  Under the
pitch-perfect direction of Scott Plate, the performers channel old movie
stars and other camp sources to craft their characters...this Pulp has
the juice: hilarious in many places, with everyone happily paired up at
the end."  -- Christine Howey, Cleveland Scene

 

CPT presents Pulp, a noir musical comedy takeoff of the lesbian pulp
fiction of the 1930's through 50's.  Join the girls at "The Well," a
lesbian bar that features nightly cabaret jazz and drag kings. Set in
the post WWII era of female malaise and ablaze with the punchy style of
the pulp fiction genre, Pulp is a stylish, fast-paced 90 minute ride.
Love Barbara Stanwyck, Strangers on a Train, Lana Turner and Dashiell
Hammett? Then get wrapped up in this comic homage full of intellect and
passion.  It's sexy, sassy, clever and totally over the top! 

 

Regional Premiere

 

Pulp received rave reviews after premiering at Chicago's About Face
Theatre in 2003 and won the After Dark Awards for both Best New Work and
Outstanding Production.
