Under Covid-19 mandates, Central Theatre Ensemble had to cancel all in-person, live performances in the spring of 2019, but WE ARE BACK!!!

We will be following strict safety protocols and utilizing creative approaches to delivering some amazing theatrical experiences for our audiences. As the landscape of the pandemic is constantly shifting, please keep a close eye on our production plans at this page and/or on our FB page.

CENTRAL THEATRE ENSEMBLE PRESENTS....

Spring 2021

The Theory of Relativity

This moving and unconventional song cycle bursts with originality as it examines the interconnectedness of us all through life's shared experiences - from the hilarious to the heartbreaking. "Take a Physics manual, blend it with the sound of The Book of Mormon, the hilariously nerdy references of The Big Bang Theory , a sprinkle of Chicago, few drops of Glee, bake it in a Broadway bowl, use all the originality you can have....That’s the successful recipe for the spectacular song cycle, The Theory of Relativity."– Live Like Tom

From Drama Desk Award nominees Neil Bartram and Brian Hill (The Story of My Life), The Theory of Relativity is a joyous and moving look about our surprisingly interconnected lives.  Whether you're allergic to cats, in love for the first or tenth time, a child of divorce, a germaphobe or simply a unique individual, audience members and actors alike are sure to find themselves in this fresh new musical.
