Cleveland Public Theatre and Y-Haven (a branch of YMCA of Greater Cleveland) Present The Return of Y-Haven Theatre Project (Roots Through Ruin<https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2024-2025/y-haven-theatre-project-11/>) April 10 through April 13, 2025 Cleveland Public Theatre<https://www.cptonline.org/> (CPT) and Y-Haven<https://www.clevelandymca.org/y-haven/> are proud to present Y-Haven Theatre Project's 25th production Roots Through Ruin<https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2024-2025/y-haven-theatre-project-11/>. Y-Haven Theatre Project is a partnership between Cleveland Public Theatre and Y-Haven, a branch of the YMCA of Greater Cleveland. Through the program, CPT collaborates with the clients of Y-Haven to create an original theatre production that shares powerful stories of recovery and personal triumph, capturing an authentic and emotional power as the cast shares their true-to-life experiences, often hidden from the world. Play Description: Trapped in an abandoned house, a group of seekers must confront the ghosts of their pasts-memories that linger like shadows in the walls. As the characters face their darkest moments, hope flickers on the horizon, lighting the path towards redemption. Will they break free from the weight of their past, or remain trapped in its grip forever? A powerful and deeply moving ghost story that delves into the heart of human resilience and the journey towards healing.
