part of CPT’s commitment to local playwrights and producers, CPT presents
a series of staged readings. This program is modeled after our successful Big
[BOX] Series but on a smaller scale, designed to foster works at an earlier
stage of development. 9 plays by local writers will be presented as staged
readings over two weeks, with reduced ticket prices. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Sunday, November 18<sup>th</sup> and a different play will be featured each
evening. Rehearsal times will vary, with approximately 2 rehearsals prior
to the performance date for each staged reading. <b><span style='font-weight:
