font-family:Arial'>Don't miss the World Premiere of a CPT Original Work written
by CPT Executive Artistic Director Raymond Bobgan and CPT Artist Chris Seibert.<i><span
style='font-style:italic'> Cut to Pieces</span></i> is an ambitious theatrical
work that integrates live performance and video projections in an affecting
solo show. <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Cut to Pieces</span></i> begins
as a classic "who-done-it" tale and quickly spirals into an epic
story of the dismembering power of violence, love, and the quest for self knowledge.
Chris Seibert stars in this tour de force one woman show.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>"By taking an age-old trope of several people convened
at a spooky mansion and twisting virtually everything thereafter, Bobgan (who
also directs) and Seibert (who also performs) come up with a bounty of inspired
moments. <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Cut to Pieces</span></i> has an
innocent arrogance and an energetic spirit of invention that makes it a
thoroughly memorable experience...don't expect any easy plotting trajectory
here. This is weird but wonderful theatrical creation, and it is most
fascinating when it is least understandable. Seibert is a marvel." –
Christine Howey,<i><span style='font-style:italic'> <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>"Without spoiling the mystery, which lies both in the
content and its manner of unspooling, suffice to say that Seibert and
Bobgan...create an innerscape that alternates between the humorous and
horrific. Despite the collaboration, it is Seibert -- an existentially lone
boat tossed on the stormy breast of the great ocean of being -- who is laying
herself bare here for all to see the ugliness and beauty, the monstrous and the
monotonously quotidian, about being alive and engaged in oneself and one's
world. Seibert burned brightly…as Emily in <i><span style='font-style:
italic'>Our Town</span></i> at Cleveland Public Theatre, but her candlepower on
her return to the CPT stage attains supernova intensity." – Tony Brown,
