The uncertainty around programming during the pandemic has created an opportunity to try something different!
This series of three readers theatre shows (Readers THREEatre, if you will!) is designed to provide performance opportunities to a wide range of actors who have not been able to be involved recently as CP has focused on small cast/small scale productions. The shows will each have one live in-person performance (with a limited “studio audience”) which will be filmed and then available for on-demand streaming the following week.
20-21 Season Ticket "punches" can be used to attend or view all of these shows!
ROMANTIC COMEDY. A crush can make anyone feel young again—even a widower named Ralph. On an ordinary day in a routine life, Ralph decides to take a different path on his daily walk—one that leads him to an unexpected second chance at love with the elegant, but distant, Carol. The Last Romance is a heart-warming comedy about the transformative power of love.
