Ensemble Theatre concludes its 43rd season with the Cleveland Premiere of Loy A. Webb’s powerful two hander.
A surprise proposal gift puts the future of Genesis and Rashad’s relationship at risk when they are forced to confront a devastating secret from the past. The Light is a 70-minute, real-time rollercoaster ride of laughter, romance, and despair that uncovers how the power of radical love can be a healing beacon of light.
Directed by Jeannine Gaskin
Featuring the amazing talents of two local Cleveland actors ::
Nicole Sumlin* (as Genesis) and Ananias J. Dixon* (as Rashad)
*Members of Actors’ Equity Association
What is impressive about the writing is how Webb keeps intensifying both the stakes and seriousness of the relationship even as she builds the threat of that which is tearing it apart.”
