Saturday, May 9, 2015 - 12:30 - 1:30pm
The road from a playwright's idea to opening night is full of twists, turns and fascinating sights--and you're invited along on the ride! Join New Ground writers Eric Coble (Fairfield) and Ken Ludwig (A Comedy of Tenors) for a revealing conversation about a play's path from pen to page to CPH stage.
RSVP required to http://clevelandplayhouse.com/inside-cph.

Pre-Show Conversations - Free for all ticketholders!
These fun and interactive 25-minute conversations happen right before the show in the Allen Theatre Complex. Pull back the curtain early and connect with the world of the play in an engaging and relaxed setting, beginning 45 minutes before every performance.

TalkBacks - Free for all ticketholders after every performance of Fairfield!
Stay after the show to continue the conversation our plays start! TalkBacks offer the chance to interact with the cast and CPH Artistic Staff in an open and lively Q&A about the play and the questions it raises.


Fairfield is the centerpiece production of the 2015 New Ground Theatre Festival - be sure to check out the other offerings in CPH's annual showcase of new works!

-          Ken Ludwig's A Comedy of Tenors - Play reading - May 9, 2015 at 5pm.  Get a sneak peek at the first production of CPH's 100th Season!  Three tenors. Three egos. One stage. What could possibly go wrong? As opening night draws near, flaring tempers, mistaken identities and bedroom hijinks bring new meaning to the phrase "the show must go on" in this laugh-out-loud farce set amidst the glitz and glamour of 1930s Paris.

-          My Mother Has 4 Noses - A new play with music - May 14-16, 2015.  Folk rock singer/songwriter Jonatha Brooke was always close to her mother Darren, a Christian Scientist and poet, even when they didn't see eye to eye on religion. So when Darren is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Jonatha puts her life on hold and becomes her caretaker. Together they embark on this new "adventure" where faith is tested and poetry discovered in the unlikeliest of places. With humor and honesty, My Mother Has 4 Noses interweaves original music with personal narrative to tell a beautiful, poignant mother-daughter love story.

-          A new play by Rebecca Gilman, 2015 Roe Green Award Winner - Play reading - May 16, 2015 at 5pm.  Rebecca Gilman is a prominent, award-winning contemporary playwright known for her relevant and topical works.
