THE PLAY: "Sex to change the course of the world..." In <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Boom</span></i>, something is about to explode and
the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. CPT presents the regional premiere
of this exciting work that premiered at Ars Nova in NYC in March 2008. In this
hilarious new work, female journalism student Jo answers male marine biologist
Jules' casual- encounters ad seeking "intensely significant
coupling." She gets stuck in his makeshift lab-turned-shelter and finds
herself surrounded by bourbon, fish tanks and a bunch of scary levers. It's the
end of the world as we know it and this is the date to end all dates! </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
