Following previous productions, such as the recent Floyd Collins – a play about the real-life explorer who died after an avalanche left him trapped in a cave – Carolina Actors Studio Theatre continues to dig deep. Its newest production, The Edge of Our Bodies, is a one-woman show about a school girl in uniform on the verge of chaos – though you could say it’s all in her head.
Written by playwright Adam Rapp, the coming-of-age narrative touches on the internal dangers that can erupt from relationships gone bad, vulnerability and self-conscious awakenings. $18-$25. June 8-9, 8 p.m.; June 14-16, 8 p.m.; June 21-23, 8 p.m. Carolina Actors Studio Theatre (CAST), 2424 N. Davidson St., Charlotte. 704-455-8542. www.nccast.com.
