CSC IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE ITS

 

2008-2009 Season

 

MEASURE FOR MEASURE

by William Shakespeare

October 16-18, 23-25, 2008, 8 pm

Shakespeare's fascinating story presents a society in the midst of moral self-examination—a society desperately in need of finding a sound balance point between inhumane repression and rampant licentiousness.

 

THE SANTALAND DIARIES

by David Sedaris

December 11-13, 2008, 8 pm

Back by popular demand (and for the final time), CSC's Christmas gift to Charleston audiences! 

A brilliant evocation of a slacker's Christmas, this hysterically funny one-man show performed by Scott Eubank and authored by renowned American humorist, Davis Sedaris, recounts his experience as a Macy's elf during the Christmas holidays. 

 

DOUBT

by John Patrick Shanley

February 19-21, 26-28, 2009, 8 pm

Father Flynn, an amiable young priest, is adored by his students; Sister Aloysius, an unbending principal, is pleased by the fear she invokes in them. When her spies report an incident between Father Flynn and a student, his explanation seems reasonable but doesn’t end her probing. As their cat-and-mouse game continues, the play takes on elements of a detective story, exploring issues with detailed clarity even as it keeps audiences guessing right up to the end.

 

WEST VIRGINIA:  WORDS AND MUSIC

An original play with music

May 21-23, 2009 at the Clay Center for Arts and Sciences, 8 pm

Monologues written by West Virginia writers intermingled with music of the Mountain State -- some originally written for the production and others that are West Virginia standards.  Some of the monologues will be dramatic; some funny.   Some of the stories will challenge perceptions and stereotypes; others will be commentaries on life in the mountain state:  past, present and future

 

 

All performances except for WV:  WORDS AND MUSIC at WVSU Capitol Center Theatre
