A diverse body of new plays will be presented with post-show audience discussions. Here is your chance to participate in CPT's mission to support artists creating new work!
CPT is proud to present the fourth year of Little Box. Running from November 11 – November 22 in the Storefront Studio Theatre!

November 13th: Out of One Glass
Written by Margaret Lynch
Directed by Caroline Jackson Smith
Featuring: Brian McNally, John Busser, Molly McGinnis, and others still to join
Out of One Glass follows the fortunes of three Irish immigrant brothers who become embroiled in a web of collusion and betrayal between labor unions, the police department, and racketeers as they try to make their way in Cleveland ca. 1928. IRA activity in Liverpool in 1920, speakeasies, the building of the Terminal Tower, and memories of a simpler time on a remote island off the coast of western Ireland all provide a backdrop. The reading is directed by Caroline Jackson Smith, Associate Professor in the Theater and African American Studies Departments at Oberlin College.
