“Guaranteed to bring at least one laugh aloud moment... with all the 
sights, sounds and color, it's like a candy store for the senses.”
~ Jeff Piorkowski, Sun News ~

"Lovingly ripped off" from the motion picture, "Monty Python and the 
Holy Grail", SPAMALOT is the Tony-winning Broadway hit and irreverent 
parody of the Arthurian legend. Rude Frenchmen, cancan dancers, the Lady 
of the Lake and her Laker Girls, Killer rabbits, catapulting cows, and 
the somewhat odd Knights who say "ni" are just part of the adventures 
and dangers awaiting King Arthur and his knights of the very very very 
round table in their quest for the holy grail. The show also features 
numerous references to "Monty Python's Flying Circus" television skits 
and skewers some of Broadway's most cherished musicals.

See the promo video! Over 43,000 views!

The Broadway production of this non-stop rollercoaster ride was 
nominated for 14 Tony Awards, winning three, including Best New Musical. 
CVLT's production wowed audiences and SOLD OUT its opening Saturday!

STARRING
Talia Valline as Liz Fuller
Lisa Freebairn as Bette Davis

In the springtime of 1985, the inimitable Bette Davis came to dinner at 
the home of Liz Fuller, a Cleveland Heights native wife, mother, and 
writer living in Connecticut. Due to a hotel strike that had displaced 
her from her New York home, Ms. Davis ended up staying for a month!

ME AND JEZEBEL is based on the true story of this hilarious, surreal, 
and aggravating chapter in the life of Ms. Fuller, her husband and young 
son, as the powerful Ms. Davis inserts herself into their lives.

Bette doesn't shy away from speaking her mind on child-rearing, 
critiques of Elizabeth's cooking, spiritualism, other celebrities and of 
course, Joan Crawford. Things reach a crisis when the family's young son 
begins imitating Bette's voice, smoking and worse, language.

You won't want to miss this wild ride that The Washington Post called "a 
zingy comedy… as funny as you could hope for."

Embrace uncertainty using the tools of improvisation: agreement, 
spontaneity, listening, and character. Rediscover the art of play, 
explore the fun of failure, and silence the voice of judgment in your 
head! Actors will improve their ability to make bold choices, develop 
characters on the fly, use their bodies effectively, listen deeply, and 
form connections with emotional authenticity.

Students will receive personalized feedback to encourage development on 
both a professional and personal level. Open to adults and teens 16 and 
older. No experience needed.
