Founded as a small, non-profit theatre collective in Chicago in 1989, and relocating to northern Ohio in 1999, Cesear's Forum is dedicated to creating literate, visceral, affecting theatre at an affordable price. Using Equity and non-Equity performers, the company has been recognized for innovation, energy and high production values while providing an intimate, personal experience. Through the commitment of the Board of Directors, volunteers, and a creative minimalist approach, the company operates without a deficit. Production offerings span a six-week run in spring, summer and fall, contributing to the area's vibrant arts community while providing ample time for viewing and developing the work.
