cleveland PUBLIC theatre<https://www.cptonline.org/> Presents The Body Play <https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2024-2025/the-body-play/> By Madison Wetzell Directed by Paige Conway March 28 through April 13, 2025 Cleveland Public Theatre (CPT) presents the world premiere of The Body Play by Madison Wetzell. The play won and/or was a finalist for several awards across the country including a Jane Chambers Award and Bay Area Playwrights Festival. It also won an award from The Bechdel Group New Play Development Reading Series where it was commended for "physical comedy, verbal dexterity (via tour-de-force monologues and one-liners, alike) as well as its implicit social critiques (that we are living in contexts that damage our bodies, relationships and world).... the play's irreverent subjectivity and feminist instincts, its queer lenses on mind/body dualism, and hilarious critiques of the medical industrial complex, as well as wellness cultures navigated by a complex self." They further described the play as "quirky and exponentially relatable..." Description: Amy, and Amy's body, take us through a physically comedic journey through chronic illness, unresponsive medical personnel, and an unstable healthcare system while questioning the absurdity of being embodied and what it might mean to be a body. ________________________________ Featuring: Day Ash, Andrea de la Fuente, Kelly Dunn, Rachel Gold, Erin K.
