    🌕Our 2025-2026 season — "Luminous" — kicks off with an interactive art experience that hatched at SoftLaunch 2025 and spread its wings at Pandemonium: To the Moon. It's "Hallowed Owls (…because everything begins and ends in winter)"!🌕🦉"Hallowed Owls" is an installation activated through an intermingling of storytelling, poetry, instrumentals, voice, and dance. Hallowed Owls will transport you to the owls' world and the mythologies we create.🦉🎟️This multi-disciplinary work fills the old church on the CPT campus from October 2-12. Get your tickets at cptonline.org or via the 🔗 in our bio now!🎟️📸: Emanuel Wallace ... See MoreSee Less
