Actors Don Bernardo and Brian Diehl (who delighted CVLT audiences as 'King
Arthur' and 'Patsy' in Spamalot as well as in our recent comedy Greater
Tuna) play dozens of characters in this quick-witted, quick-change,
vaudevillian spoof of Gothic thrillers.

Playwright Charles Ludlam pulls out the stops with a show that includes
Egyptian mummies, vampires, ghosts and werewolves set in a proper Victorian
manor household, complete with a butler and housekeeper. The three-act play
is a satirical mashup of theatrical, literary and film genres from Wuthering
Heights and Hitchock’s Rebecca to the French serial Les Vampires.

The Velocity of Autumn
by ERIC COBLE
OCTOBER 12 - 27
Fridays & Saturdays at 8 PM
Sundays Oct. 21 at 2 PM
Tickets $13
>From Cleveland-native playwright Eric Coble, The Velocity Of Autumn swirls
around Alexandra (MARGO PARKER), an 80-year-old artist in a showdown with
her family over where she’ll spend her remaining years.

In Alexandra’s corner are her wit, her volcanic passion, and the fact that
she’s barricaded herself in her Brooklyn brownstone with enough Molotov
cocktails to take out the block. But her children have their own secret
weapon: estranged son Chris (ADAM YOUNG), who returns after 20 years,
crawls through Alexandra’s second-floor window and becomes the family’s
unlikely mediator.

No sooner are the words “Hi, Mom” uttered than the emotional bombs start
detonating. The Velocity Of Autumn is a wickedly funny and wonderfully
touching discovery of the fragility and ferocity of life.

Directed by Katharine Tonti
