[NEohioPAL] THIS WEEKEND: CPT's Spirits to Enforce is "sublime"...12 superheroes telefundraising from their secret submarine. That's right, superheroes don't get paid. (Oct 9-25)

Cleveland Public Theatre presents
SPIRITS TO ENFORCE<http://www.cptonline.org/theater-show.php?id=240>
Written by Mickle Maher
Directed by Matthew Wright :: Original music by Sam Fisher, 14/15 Kulas Composer Fellow

Through October 25

Now that their arch-nemesis, Professor Cannibal, is locked away in a correctional facility, twelve superheroes-The Fathom Town Enforcers-have taken up residence in a secret submarine to tackle the most critical work of their crime-fighting mission...fundraising. The Enforcers' plan? To stage a "superheroic" benefit performance of William Shakespeare's The Tempest. Seriously. Infused with comic book lore, choral arrangement and text from Shakespeare's beloved masterpiece, Mickle Maher's Spirits to Enforce is an utterly unique theatrical trip.

"Wonderfully offbeat...Under the precise direction of Matthew Wright, all of Maher's humorous snips and quips mesh into a symphony of need and a tribute of sorts to the power of creativity and the magic of the performing arts. There is enchantment afoot at CPT."
