Five Area Playwrights Showcased at WAKE UP And LIVE's "PlayActs" Staged 
Readings.

    The Sue Johnson WAKE UP And LIVE's Actors' Studio presents "PlayActs," 
its Playwright's Lab Showcase of Staged Readings, in two performance-packed 
days at Tri-C, Eastern, 4250 Richmond Road, Highland Hills, Building 3, 
Auditorium, on Saturday, July 21st, 7:30 PM, & Sunday, July 22nd, 3:00 PM.

    Come see local actors and advanced acting students perform these original 
one-act dramas, comedies and 'dramadies' written by the five playwrights, 
Thea Adler (Mayfield Hts.), Ruby Fox (University Hts.), Siegmund Fuchs (No. 
Royalton), Carl Long (Gates Mills), and Gary Webster (Willoughby Hills).  
After the readings, the audience is invited to meet the playwrights and share 
their reactions to, and insights about the playwrights' "works in progress." 

     "Cycle of a Lifetime," is Thea Adler's first one-act submitted to the 
Playwright's Lab. Ruby Fox's plays "Wednesdays With Hilda" and "Divorce 101" 
have been read at various theaters, including the Cleveland Playhouse and 
Karamu. "One Night at the Movies" is Siegmund Fuchs' second play which has 
been selected for WAKE UP And LIVE's readings. Carl Long, a Theatre major, 
Grinnell College, Iowa, will see his short piece, "Irena's Song," brought to 
life by two new actors to the Playwright's Lab, Josh Hunt and Marina Shtelen. 
 Long will also be Assistant Director for "Divorce 101." Gary Webster, radio 
personality, WBKC-Radio, will direct his own play, "Divine Intervention." 
"Hold, Please" and "Let There Be Light" two of Webster's sketch comedies,
