CPCC Summer Theatre to Stage WAIT UNTIL DARK and THE PINOCCHIO SHOW, July 2013
CPCC Summer Theatre, Charlotte's only professional summer stock theatre, will bring the Tony Award nominated thriller "Wait Until Dark" to the Pease Auditorium stage next month. Then, grab your kids and come on down to Summer Theatre 2013 for the 40th anniversary of the children's show at CPCC. This season CPCC will be presenting the local premiere of "The Pinocchio Show."
Wait Until Dark follows a sinister con man, two ex-convicts and a young, blind wife who face off in a deadly game of cat and mouse to uncover the mysterious secrets of a doll. This masterfully constructed Broadway thriller moves from one moment of suspense to the next as it builds toward an electrifying, breath-stopping final scene.

Join us this summer as the magical classic "Pinocchio" gets a whacky makeover!
