Cleveland Play House Presents MY NAME IS ASHER LEV, 3/4-4/3

MY NAME IS ASHER LEV, a play by Aaron Posner adapted from the visionary novel by Chaim Potok, marks the Cleveland Play House directorial debut of Associate Artistic Director Laura Kepley, who joined the CPH staff at the start of the 2010-11 season.

In this powerful adaptation, we meet Asher Lev, a young man with extraordinary artistic talent. Born into a Hasidic family in post-World War II Brooklyn, his artistic genius threatens to estrange him from both his parents and his community. With performances already at 88% capacity, Cleveland Play House has announced it is adding an additional week of performances. MY NAME IS ASHER LEV begins in the Baxter Stage at Cleveland Play House on Friday, March 4 and now runs through Sunday, April 3, 2011. Tickets are available at Cleveland Play House box office by calling 216.795.7000 ext 4 or online at www.clevelandplayhouse.com.
