Don't miss the World Premiere of a CPT Original Work written by CPT
Executive Artistic Director Raymond Bobgan and CPT Artist Chris Seibert.
Cut to Pieces is an ambitious theatrical work that integrates live
performance and video projections in an affecting solo show. Cut to
Pieces begins as a classic "who-done-it" tale and quickly spirals into
an epic story of the dismembering power of violence, love, and the quest
for self knowledge. Chris Seibert stars in this tour de force one woman
show.
The critics are raving about Cut to Pieces:
"By taking an age-old trope of several people convened at a spooky
mansion and twisting virtually everything thereafter, Bobgan (who also
directs) and Seibert (who also performs) come up with a bounty of
inspired moments. Cut to Pieces has an innocent arrogance and an
energetic spirit of invention that makes it a thoroughly memorable
experience...don't expect any easy plotting trajectory here. This is
weird but wonderful theatrical creation, and it is most fascinating when
it is least understandable. Seibert is a marvel." - Christine Howey,
Cleveland Scene
"Without spoiling the mystery, which lies both in the content and its
manner of unspooling, suffice to say that Seibert and Bobgan...create an
innerscape that alternates between the humorous and horrific. Despite
the collaboration, it is Seibert -- an existentially lone boat tossed on
the stormy breast of the great ocean of being -- who is laying herself
bare here for all to see the ugliness and beauty, the monstrous and the
monotonously quotidian, about being alive and engaged in oneself and
one's world. Seibert burned brightly...as Emily in Our Town at Cleveland
Public Theatre, but her candlepower on her return to the CPT stage
attains supernova intensity." - Tony Brown, The Cleveland Plain Dealer
