The California Stage Theater
Clinically Un-Depressed
Cole Black can’t feel sadness or anger—but somehow, he changes everyone around him.
Told through the eyes of a grumpy Vietnam veteran who’d rather yell at kids than connect with them, this story follows an unexpected friendship that turns bitterness into something beautiful.
As Cole navigates a world of emotions he doesn’t understand, he transforms enemies into friends, challenges the people closest to him, and reshapes every life he touches. A heartfelt, surprising journey about connection, change, and seeing the world differently.
Opening Night: May 1
Closing Weekend: May 29 - May 31
