WENCESLAS SQUARE concludes its limited engagement at
Playhouse Square
Does the past ask itself for something from the present? Larry Shue’s WENCESLAS SQUARE is a very personal play and the storytelling unusual. Described as “an anecdote told in flashback,” he shares his American naiveté through the insights of his observed Czech characters. Those caught up in the boldness and reticence of political challenges to the status quo. The formatted blueprint and our production elements were met with merit, criticism and much shared response from our audience. Cesear’s Forum, in abeyance, plans a fall 2023 production.



Cesear’s Forum is dedicated to presenting unconventional, new or lesser known plays that explore theory and technique to reveal aspects of the social, political, economic and ideological properties of daily life. The company produces intermittently, on a project by project basis (unusual in Cleveland), currently, one play per year, rather than a traditional seasonal approach.

Intimate, minimalist, professional and distinctly non-commercial, the company operates from a truly non-profit perspective.
“Sometimes words, by themselves or in recurrent patterns, will blaze up in fiery exchanges or subside in aching whispers; sometimes a grimace, a tear, the movement of a hand, or a break in speech will hint better than spoken language what passes show.” –Marvin Rosenberg
