CLEVELAND PUBLIC THEATRE

Cleveland Public Theatre is an alternative performance company with a priority commitment to help develop original theater artists from their area -- particularly those whose work is experimental in form and/or challenging in content. They are known as one of the nation's leading experimental and political performance venues, sponsoring much dance, music, poetry and performance art as well as theater. They sponsor several multi-cultural ensembles and function as an artistic home for dozens of self-producing artists. Since 1984, they have premiered 236 new works by 146 regional, national and international playwrights.
