Mini-Festival #1 - One Weekend Only!

Eleanor

by Mark St. Germain


Directed by Jeffery Battersby


Friday, October 4, 8pm

Saturday, October 5, 2pm


An absorbing, thoughtful portrait...the best sort of history.


This one-woman show brings to life Eleanor Roosevelt, the most influential First Lady the world has ever seen. From her “Ugly Duckling” upbringing to her unorthodox marriage to Franklin, Eleanor puts her controversial life, loves and passions on the stage.


Eleanor is an intimate portrait of the witty, feisty, and vulnerable woman who stood at the heart of the FDR presidency and left an indelible mark on American history.


“Extraordinary. That’s the only word for it … Eleanor is a triumph, all the way.”

—Berkshire Bright Focus

The mystery of the abandoned Trousers...An unforgettable tale


In this gripping ghost story a librarian discovers a book in a return bin ⁠—⁠ 123 years overdue. Sparked by a message left in its margins, she embarks on a magical quest that takes her around the world and 2,000 years into the past, She draws us into an unforgettable odyssey.


Called "powerfully human and ultimately sublime," Glen Berger's Underneath the Lintel reminds us that the joy is in the journey itself.


“…one of a handful of great plays written in the last five years … an astonishingly beautiful piece of writing …” ⁠

CP2 Mini-Festival #2

(Performances - December 6-8)


BABEL

By Jacqueline Goldfinger

Directed by Michael J. Frohnhoefer

Dark Comedy |Audition 10/13, 1-3pm


A funny and, at times, terrifying vision of a future. Set in the near future, two couples are having trouble getting pregnant and the lengths they go to in order to have a baby raises the specter of eugenics, explores the societal value of a baby, and asks us what we are willing to risk for love.


MARJORIE PRIME

By Jordan Harrison

Directed by Cynthia Topps

Science Fiction Thriller | Audition 10/13, 3-5pm


Clever in concept, alive with humor, and terribly haunting. It’s the age of artificial intelligence, and 85-year-old Marjorie — a jumble of, fading memories — has a handsome new companion who’s programmed to feed the story of her life back to her. What would we remember and what would we forget if given the chance to explore the mysteries of human identity?
