cleveland PUBLIC theatre<https://www.cptonline.org/> Presents SoftLaunch<https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2024-2025/soft-launch-2025/> January 23 through January 25, 2025 Cleveland Public Theatre (CPT) presents the World Premiere of its most experimental artistic development program to date, SoftLaunch<https://www.cptonline.org/performances/seasons/2024-2025/soft-launch-2025/>. Join us for this groundbreaking festival that seeks to reinvent what theatre and art can be. Patrons get to be part of the art as they immerse themselves in installations and intimate performances. These works burst beyond CPT's theatres into lobbies, hallways, and even the rooftop. Pieces exist in various stages of development, giving the audience a crucial role in the creative process. The event will feature 20+ experimental performances and visual art installations ranging in level of completion―some pieces are new, while some have been developed over a longer period. Some pieces will operate as an art exhibit where patrons can come and go as they choose, while some will be timed and presented at multiple times throughout the day. There will also be free panel discussions on Jan. 25 at 2pm, 3pm and 4pm that are open to the public. Participating creators include the following: Raymond Bobgan, Molly Andrews-Hinders, Caroline Breder-Watts, Isaiah Burns, CHIMI, Ray Caspio, Michael Glavan, Brooke Lynlee, Demetria McCulloh, Molly McFadden, Dave Maher, Fatima Matar, Elizabeth Pollert, Lacy Talley, Nadia Tarnawsky, Anastasía Urozhaeva, Kerstin Vaughn and Chris Webb.
