Perhaps the next production at Cleveland Public Theatre sounds a little too much like it was ripped from current events. Get this: “You are invited into the live studio audience of American Dreams, where you will decide which of three contestants will receive the ultimate prize: citizenship in ‘the greatest nation on earth.’”
Reality TV show? Anti-immigrant bias? Where have we seen that lately?
But if you are fed up to the gills with the xenophobia coming from the reality TV show host in the White House, and want to explore the issue more, come on down and check out the next CPT production, the world premier American Dreams. The interactive performance, directed and developed by Tamilla Woodward in collaboration with Ali Andre Ali, Osh Ghanimah, Jens Rasmussen, Imran Sheikh and Andrew Aaron Valdez, will explore attitudes about immigration and the tension between ideas of security and freedom
Tickets are $12-$30. Thursdays and Mondays are all $12, a real bargain!
