The roster is four titles strong this year, instead of the usual three. Included are new works by solo artist Mike Daisey and playwright Joe Hortua.

Hortua has a long relationship with CCTP. In 2002, CCTP fostered Hortua's Burning, which then went to an Off-Broadway production at the Rattlestick Theatre. The company also tested out Between Us, which recently opened at Manhattan Theatre Club as Hortua's most high profile production to date.

This year, the Hortua title of World Thrown Tizzy, described as "Samuel Beckett meets David Mamet." No director has been announced.

The season opens with Daisey's The Ugly American. Daisey made his name with 21 Dogs Years: Doing Time @ Amazon.com, a NYC Fringe hit which went on the a commercial run. The new piece tracks Daisey's experiences studying theatre in London.

Also part of the line-up is a new play by Julia Cho, whose The Architecture of Loss was staged at Off-Broadway's New York Theatre Workshop last fall. Gordon Edelstein will direct. CCTP is stationed in Falmouth in the southwest corner of Cape Cod, and performs out of The Falmouth Academy, a private school. Though the company never stages full productions and makes no bones about its plays being in a state of development, the season has become quite popular with the local populace.

The Ugly American by Michael Daisey
July 8-10
The Falmouth Academy
