A Stage of Loneliness: Tri-C Theatre Students Present Proximity at Eastern Campus

Student production set for Feb. 21-24 focuses on solitary lives of two strangers

Theater students from Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C^®) will present Proximity, a play about loneliness and unexpressed pain, as they take the stage at Eastern Campus later this month. 

Free performances will take place at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 21-23 and 2 p.m. Feb. 24 in the Studio Theatre in The Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Humanities Center, located at 4250 Richmond Road in Highland Hills.

Proximity focuses on two strangers who cross paths daily. Their solitary journeys include simultaneous cellphone conversations. In these chats, the audience learns about unseen connections between the two.

The play is directed by Raziya Hernton, a Tri-C student from Garfield Heights who earned an Associate of Arts degree from the College in December. Proximity is an original work written by Dan Jackson.

Seating is free and available on a first-come basis. For more information on the performances, call 216-987-4947.
