THEATER SPOTS

The Cleveland Public Theatre's next production is Saul Ansky's The Dybbuk, a classic drama of the Eastern European Yiddish Theatre. In Jewish lore, a dybbuk is an evil spirit, a demon or a restless soul of a dead person that resides in the body of a living person.

The production will be directed by Jairo Cuesta, co-founder of the New World Performance Laboratory, and
