About the Show

Edges is a musical “song cycle” by Pasek & Paul (most famous for writing Dear Evan Hansen and The Greatest Showman). It is a story about coming of age, growth and self-discovery of people mostly in their 20s.  As we all emerge from being isolated these past 15 months, theatre is coming back! How fitting that CCT’s first show back is for our students who haven’t been able to go to school or see their friends (something so integral to that age group.)

Our version of Edges will be through the eyes of the college-aged student complete with texting, social media and photos but in this case the audience can see what they’re thinking through projections and moving text.  So many of these songs are about love but how do you navigate that course when you can’t leave your house?
