On the fourth Friday of every month, April through August, 2017, Summit Theatre Group and Downtown Lee’s Summit Main Street will be putting on Cellular Cenes, a unique theater experience that will take place on the streets of downtown Lee’s Summit (beginning at Red Door Wine Store). Tickets are $10 + a small convenience fee.
Here’s a blurb about the event from the Downtown Lee’s Summit website.
“Cellular ‘Cenes is a short romance told in 5 scenes. Each scene (‘cene) is set in a different street locale within a typical downtown business district. Rather than build sets and put them on a stage, the scenes are designed to take place in actual places in the city. The audience follows the action by moving from place to place and witnessing the action as it occurs on site.
The twist, and hence the title, is that the audience has no idea where the next scene is going to be until they receive a text message by cell phone telling them where to go. They walk to the new location, have a little time to visit the business there and then see the next scene. No scene lasts longer than 10 minutes and the entire production,including walking time, takes about an hour and 15 minutes to perform.”
The show starts at 7 p.m., and will take place in conjunction with the city’s Fourth Friday Art Walk. Here are the show dates:
- April 28
- May 26
- June 23
- July 28
- August 25
