Don't miss another chance to see a studio showing of Stolen Chair's Kinderspiel, the totally fabricated true story of a Weimar-era nightclub where adults play like children and customers pay to watch. When it was produced in 2007, Time Out called it "haunting" in a 4-star review and Martin Denton of NYtheatre.com declared it "required viewing" and the "most provocative and thought-provoking work that indie theater has to offer." We recently toured Kinderspiel to "The Artfulness of Play" festival at The University of Western Ontario, and we're bringing it back to New York as we explore options to remount it again later this season. To whet your appetite for the full production, we'll be presenting Act 1 in a fully staged and costumed studio showing.

NYTheatre.com has embedded reporter Jo Ann Rosen in the CST, and she will be giving you the inside perspective on what it's like to be a member of the country's first Community Supported Theatre. We're happy to have her and hope you'll enjoy reading her dispatch from the CST Open House kick-off.

Referring to the highlights of the retreat for Quantum Poetics, Jo Ann said, "All were big scientific ideas applied to every day life. They were made comprehensible and whimsical by this very clever group."
