Cloud 9
by Caryl Churchill
directed by Allie Moss
Nov 15 – Dec 15, 2019
A masterpiece from one of the greatest dramatists of our time, Cloud 9 is about sexual politics in colonial Africa and modern-day Britain, in which all our assumptions about sex and gender are stunningly exploded. Cloud 9 is about relationships – between women and men, men and men, women and women. It is also about sex, work, mothers, power, generations, politics, and money, which is why this classic play feels as urgent today as when it made Churchill a household name.

Reviews
“Submission and dominion — sexual, racial, geopolitical and the necessary intersection thereof — the play, whose two acts bookend a century of British history, still incisively dissects power, how it operates and how it’s enforced, while also offering, under the table, a few blueprints for how to dismantle it.” – SF Chronicle
“Sizzles in its spicy and salacious takes on relationships between and among the sexes while double casting its ensemble members often to mix their genders and orientations. Along the way, Director Allie Moss ensures that roles are often played to a ridiculously exaggerated hilt to send the farce into wildly spinning, comedic spheres.” -TheatreEddys
“Director Allie Moss and her six superb actors deliver a moving and timely drama, showcasing Churchill’s prophetic union of sexual politics and male domination. Shake off your chains at Custom Made, ASAP!” -Theatrius
