Cleveland Public Theatre Presents AN EXTRAORDINARY LOVE (THREE SHORT PLAYS IN PROGRESS)

Performed by Katrice Headd, Christina Johnson, LaShawn M. Little, Darryl Tatum, Sherrie Tolliver, & Anthony Woods.

By:

Cleveland Public Theatre has announced An Extraordinary Love (three short plays in progress), a Zoom Reading directed by Nicole Sumlin.

An Extraordinary Love (three short plays in progress) includes The Proposal by Ananias J. Dixon, 2020/2021 CPT Premiere Fellow; Smoking by Lisa Langford; Tiana by Christian St. Croix; and is performed by Katrice Headd, Christina Johnson, LaShawn M. Little, Darryl Tatum, Sherrie Tolliver, and Anthony Woods. An Extraordinary Love (three short plays in progress) will perform live via Zoom May 21 through May 23, 2021.

For generations, Black love and relationships have pressed through amazing obstacles to soothe, nourish, and bloom. Many entities outside of Black culture have tried to name what this love is and what it's not. In the context of three 10-minute plays presented as readings on Zoom, Black artists authentically explore this extraordinary love, with extended post-show discussions to unpack its beauty.

Content Warning: An Extraordinary Love includes adult and sexual content, and discussions of race, drug use, incarceration, growing up without a parent, and coming out.
