Cesear's Forum presents Yasmina Reza’s
CONVERSATIONS AFTER A BURIAL, translated by Christopher Hampton
The funeral of French Patriarch Simon Weinberg delves into the complexities of familial relationships. Coping with loss and grief, the characters' vulnerabilities are underscored by the absurdities of situational interactions. Heartfelt moments and witty banter give way to nervous tensions and an apparent relationship love triangle. An unlovable figurehead was nevertheless loved.
September 25th through October 24th, Friday and Saturday at 8pm.
Two Sunday Matinees at 3 pm on October 11th and 18th,
Kennedy’s Down Under, Playhouse Square, 1501 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio. Call 216-241-6000 or visit www.playhousesquare.org.
Ticket price is: $28 for adults, $15.00 for students.

Cesear’s Forum is dedicated to presenting unconventional, new or lesser known plays that explore theory and technique to reveal aspects of the social, political, economic and ideological properties of daily life. The company produces intermittently, on a project by project basis (unusual in Cleveland), currently, one play per year, rather than a traditional seasonal approach.
Intimate, minimalist, professional and distinctly non-commercial, the company operates from a truly non-profit perspective.
“Sometimes words, by themselves or in recurrent patterns, will blaze up in fiery exchanges or subside in aching whispers; sometimes a grimace, a tear, the movement of a hand, or a break in speech will hint better than spoken language what passes show.” –Marvin Rosenberg
