CINEMATOSCAPE is producing "The Space Between" stage play for United Solo in New York City.

"The Space Between" is a coming of age story told through a historical and cross cultural lens. A young boy in South Africa longs to reunite with his American childhood sweetheart before the space between them separates them forever. Inspired by actual events, the play explores the universal themes of 'distance' and 'space'.

"The Space Between" play is written and performed by Simeon Taole, who has been called "an up and coming bona fide triple threat" (NOW Magazine) and one of the "best kept secrets within the arts and cultural scene" (North York Arts). Taole "proved himself to be an exceptional playwright, director, actor, filmmaker, and composer in less than an hour and half" (MOONEY ON THEATRE).

Taole has taken the show on tour 2016/17, and won "Best Performer" at the Atlantic Fringe Festival 2016. In review of this performance, THE COAST noted "I couldn't take my eyes off Taole. He's an astonishing actor; with small shifts in tone, accent and posture he can immediately create a whole new character". Called a "Tour De Force Performance" (TWISI), this production also incorporates original music in a heartfelt and humorous show.

"The Space Between" runs Tuesday, November 7, 2017 at 9pm at Theatre Row, 410 West 42nd St, New York City. Tickets on sale through www.telecharge.com/Off-Broadway/United-Solo-Festival-2017 or at the box office at 212-239-6200 or 800-447-7400.
