"You're going to be your own
special self.  You're going to occupythat space if it kills you."  These lines spoken in Edward Albee’s
biographical drama OCCUPANT might reflect on his own life and work. The play, a tribute to Louise Nevelson, the
renowned American sculptor, will make its Cesear’s Forum regional premier in a limited September/October
engagement at Kennedy's Down Under, PlayhouseSquare, Cleveland, Ohio.   Best known for large monochromatic wooden
pieces, Nevelson
solidified her fame and persona late in life, cultivating a personal stylebased on purpose and
perseverance. 
Edward Albee, the leading American playwright of his
generation, has been confounding, challenging and stimulating theater audiences
for almost half a century.  In OCCUPANT, through a Q. & A.
format,  Albee’s droll humor and  unabashed scrutiny explores individual veracity,
selective memory and the process of
self-fulfillment.  
 
The Cleveland production features Julia Kolibab and George Roth
(as probing guide and interviewer).   The production will be staged by Artistic Director Greg Cesear,
with a setting by Laura Carlson Tarantowski, lighting by Andrew Kaletta and
costumes by Aimee Kluiber.  The
production is sponsored, in part, by Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and the Bonne
Bell Family Foundation.
