Candlelight Hypothesis

Workshop

Cleveland Public Theatre

Cleveland, OH (Gordon Square)
Professional Theatre

Created by: Raymond Bobgan
Developed with Cleveland CORE Ensemble

May 11 - May 21, 2022

Show Description:

Unlike anything you’ve ever seen, this immersive performance empowers “the guests” (audience members) to curate their own experience. Inside the part museum, part haunted house, part workshop, guests witness scenes, monologues, dance, and music in this bold, multilayered performance. This sensory-rich “exhibition” weaves together threads of a mythical world where origami may come to life, moths can journey to a star, and the candle flame may be a doorway to a magical realm.

Guests are welcomed into the space in small groups at regular intervals from 7:00 and 8:30pm (3:00 and 4:30pm on Sunday). The cycle of performance unfolds multiple times each night. Guests may exit after one cycle or stay through until the very end.
