CP's work highlighted in American Theatre magazine

Community Players • July 28, 2022

CP's work with the documentary series "Mind Over Murder" has been featured in American Theatre magazine.


American Theatre magazine is the nation’s only general-circulation magazine devoted to theatre. American Theatre covers theatrical trends and events, stage artists of every stripe, and economic and legislative developments affecting the arts. Its main purview is America’s wide-ranging network of professional, not-for-profit theatres—commercial, amateur or university theatre is less frequently covered.


The article discusses CP's production of the play GAGE COUNTY NE and the power of theatre to impact hearts and minds. The play, produced in August 2021, in collaboration with the HBO documentary series "Mind Over Murder" explores the Beatrice Six case and its ongoing impact on our community. All episodes are currently available for streaming on HBOMax.
