Tony and Academy Award nominee Barbara Barrie has joined the cast of the Cape Cod Theatre Project's staged reading of Joe DiPietro's Creating Claire, which will be presented July 16-18.

Barrie (Company, Torch Song Trilogy, "Breaking Away") joins a cast that includes the previously announced Celia Keenan-Bolger (Spelling Bee), Johanna Day (Proof) and Matthew Arkin (Dinner With Friends).

Christopher Ashley (Memphis, Xanadu) directs the reading of the new play, which is described as "an exploration of the supernova that results when science, faith and politics collide."

Additional works presented in The Cape Cod Theatre include Zohar Tirosh's Six, Anna Ziegler's Photograph 51 and Aladdin Ullah's solo work, Indio.

The Cape Cod Theatre Project runs July 9-Aug. 1 and is located in Falmouth, MA. Tickets (suggested donation of $20) may be purchased by calling the box office at (508) 457-4242 or online at www.capecodtheatreproject.org
