A powerful evening of original works of drama, story and poetry created and performed by women in transition. Established in 1999, the Women's Voices Project is a collaboration between Cleveland Public Theatre and the Elyria YWCA's Women's Campus Project. Women's Voices connects Campus Project residents with the tools of creative expression to help them achieve independent living and recover from domestic violence, addiction and other adversities. Following performances at Cleveland Public Theatre and the Elyria YWCA, the women tour their work to area shelters, recovery centers and prisons.

Under the guidance of CPT Education Director Chris Seibert, Women's Voices participants have worked with gifted local artists Deborah Burke, Sheffia Randall Dooley, Faye Hargate, Bridget Kriner, Jan Snow and Elizabeth R. Wood.

Together, the artists and the residents have engaged in writing and dramatic activities to improvise and verbalize stories that are born from the truth of difficult life circumstances."The women who take the stage in the Women's Voices Project are some of the most courageous women in our community. They are doing the most difficult work a person can do: self-exploration with a commitment to personal transformation," says CPT Education Director Chris Seibert. "When the women share their stories publicly, audiences leave changed as well. It's such a powerful night at the theatre."

Somewhere, Someone features work by Joyce W. Carey, Charmaine Castaneda, Clancy, Tonja Sexton, Tonia Eber, Nova B. Lafferty, Brandy J. Logan, Tamara Oliver, Pam Solnick, and Prudence D. Wallace.

The 2009-2010 Women's Voices Project is made possible by generous support from The Doll Family Foundation, Elyria YWCA, KeyBank and The Nord Family Foundation.
