Cynthia Kaplan in Cindy of Arc

Cindy of Arc is a VERY timely comedy and rock music extravaganza about the problem men have with lying and where that's gotten the rest of us, particularly women. And Jews. Think American Utopia with expletives, politics, religion, dogs, cannibals, no David Byrne, and no Utopia. And it's a comedy. And we wear our shoes.

Brought to you by award-winning writer, musician, and comedian Cynthia Kaplan, Tony-winning director Dani Davis, and three musicians all named Mike. 

A finalist for the 2023 Richard Rodgers Award for Musical Theatre, Cindy of Arc is thrilled to return to the Beechman following its packed performances in the fall. 

Previously, COA opened Seattle's Intiman Theatre's 50th anniversary season and has been presented by Baltimore Theatre Project, NYC's Dixon Place, and the Bitter End. 

Brilliant and blistering... a special blend of the poppiest of Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon’s Prairie Home Invasion political satire cuts, folded into Lauren Weedman’s comedic musical commentary whipped with the stalwart feminist political devotion of The Raging Grannies.

...A thoughtful, intelligent, and laugh-out-loud event... That stage is her bully pulpit and she knows it, making use of every square inch, every spotlight, every applause, and every chance she’s given to exercise her voice (and) demonstrate her deep talents.
-Maryland Theatre Guide

Hilarious...Like many great comics of yesteryear (Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor come to mind), Kaplan does good things with bad words...The show gave me early 90’s riot grrl political anarcho-punk folk meets Violent Femmes-style pop-rock.
-Baltimore Fishbowl

Raucously successful...A one-woman rock-n-roll tour through human history, mythology, literature, and more.
-WBJC Radio, Maryland

Cynthia Kaplan is the funniest, funkiest white girl I've seen.
-Nancy Giles, CBS News Sunday Morning

Witty, angry, sparkling... Transcendence happens.
-Bully Pulpit

Cindy of Arc is amazing. Cynthia Kaplan is a genius.
