"Devil's Backbone is a mournful and beautiful new ghost story by Guil= lermo del Toro, understands that most ghosts are sad, and are attempting not= to frighten us but to urgently communicate something that must be known so=20= that they can rest.The film takes place in Spain in the final days of the Ci= vil War. Franco's fascists have the upper hand, and in a remote orphanage th= e children of left-wing families await the end. In the courtyard, a huge une= xploded bomb rests, nose-down, like a sculpture. 'They say it's switched off= ,' says one of the kids, 'but I don't believe it. Put your head against it.=20= You can hear it ticking.' The Mexican director del Toro is a master of dark=20= atmosphere, and the places in his films seem as frightening as the plots. He= is only 36; he began with Cronos (1994), the story of an antiques de= aler who invents a small, elegant golden beetle that sinks its claws into th= e flesh and imparts immortality. In 1997 he made a Hollywood film, Mimic<= /I>, starring Mira Sorvino and Jeremy Northam... Devil's Backbone has= been compared to The Others and has the same ambition and intelligen= ce, but is more compelling and even convincing."
- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Wei, founder of the American Museum of Asian Holocaust WWII (1931-1945) located in Falls Creek, Pennsylvania. This free lecture is an educational program to learn about the past history in order to avoid repeating the same errors again. Did you know that during WWII, out of ten American POWs who died, nine of them died in Japanese captivity while only one out of ten died in the German Nazi captivity? Did you know that over 30 million Chinese men, women and children were killed by the onslaught of the Japanese soldiers from 1931 to 1945 and at least 200 million Chinese people were made homeless refugees? Did you know that the atrocities committed during WWII in China by the Japanese soldiers and officers have not been taught in high school history curriculum across America? Mr. Wei's lecture and photos of forgotten stories of heroes during the WWII will help us understand the untold history of our past. He will talk about some tragic stories as well as heart-warming stories about heroics of that period of time in Asia, like the first American airman who died for justice against Japanese fliers in China; the story about Minnie Vautrin who saved more than 10,000 Chinese women from being raped or killed; American and Chinese POWs as slave laborers; the defense of Bataan peninsula by both American and Filipino soldiers and many others. A photo exhibit on the anthrax attack in China (1942-44) by the Japanese military will be shown. The free lecture will be held from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Asia Plaza's Conference Room (2nd Floor), 2999 Payne Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114. Tea refreshment will be provided. Limited seating, RSVP is suggested. For more information, please call 216-623-0822 or email Johnny at mdifilm.com. About Eugene L. Wei.

Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire. The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall.

Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis.

Clever staging, gifted cast make 'La Mancha' a dream

Jacqueline Gerber
Special to The Plain Dealer

At Saturday's opening performance of "Man of La Mancha," the action began before the show did.

On the dimly lit stage, a man strummed a guitar. Casual groupings of men and women, dressed in tatters, held muted conversations and silent fights. Above them, iron bars created a daunting perimeter.

Slowly, the players revealed the grim social order of a 16th-century prison.

That sense of understated detail transforms "La Mancha" from aging musical chestnut to an engaging night in the theater.

Fred Sternfeld's taut and vocally strong production gives full rein to the sentimentality, bravado and despair at the heart of the 1965 Tony Award-winning musical.

In a superb performance, Tom Fulton seamlessly transforms himself from the troubled Miguel de Cervantes to the author's creation, the dotty, plumpish knight errant, Don Quixote, who is charmingly out of step with his surroundings.

Tracee Patterson's earthy and beautifully sung Aldonza seems occasionally low-key, but she creates an effective tension when she resists Quixote's flowery attempts to ennoble her.

Contemporary choreography by Martin Cespedes adds edgy athleticism. From stage fighting and exotic dancing to a horse ballet, the dancing also illustrates in harrowing realism the brutality that befalls Aldonza.

The exceptional cast includes excellent performances by David Robeano as a disarmingly sweet Sancho Panza and R. Scott Posey as the padre.

The prisoners, a motley crew of thieves, murderers and malcontents, are major assets. They sing and act with precision. In their rags and leathers, with menacing scowls, they look like contenders on the professional wrestling tour.

Larry Hartzell's excellent off-stage orchestra, heavy on the synthesizer, maintains the right note of heroism.

A wonderfully grimy setting is created by Keith Nagy's raked two-level set.

Although "The Impossible Dream" is the only song from the Mitch Leigh-Joe Darion score to have a life outside the musical, there are other gems: "Dulcinea," "I'm Only Thinking of Him" and the title song. Dale Wasserman's book, adapted from his late 1950s play about Cervantes, offers laughs, adventure and sadness.

It could be argued that the show's idealism is better suited to the political and social fabric of the 1960s than to sadder-but-wiser 2002. But it's clear that Quixote's insistent sanguinity proves the redemptive power of the imagination.

From newfangled at email.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 From: newfangled at email.com (Newfangled Productions) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]NFP presents the worst play ever written Message-ID: <20021012131407.23660.qmail@email.com>

What are you waiting for?

 

Newfangled Productions is ushering in their first season with the worst play ever written - Samuel Beckett's seminal play "Waiting for Godot."

(We're not sure what "seminal" means, but we read that in a magazine somewhere.)

Described by Beckett himself: "Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful."

Watch as:

* ACTORS talk to each other LIVE ON STAGE!

* One man walks around while another falls asleep RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!!

* Act Two IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS a brief intermission!!!

Tired of that same old theatre where plots develop, your heart is moved and THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPEN? Then come see WAITING FOR GODOT featuring these unfortunate actors (and can you believe they are actually getting paid to do this?):

Ryan McMullen as Estragon

Oliver Corrigan as Vladimir

Megan Elk as Pozzo

Jamie Russell as Lucky

Becca Borukhovsky as The Boy

Don't walk, RUN - to see the play about NOTHING and what so-called experts consider the most important play of the twentieth century.

Got nothing better to do? Here's the info:

Newfangled Production's presents

From royberko at yahoo.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 From: royberko at yahoo.com (Roy Berko) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Reviews: La Mancha/Halle; Music/CPT; Silvers/Ensemble Message-ID: <20021012142538.65171.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> MAN OF LA MANCHA AT HALLE, I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME AT CPT, THE SILVERS AT ENSEMBLE Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) The Times Newspapers --Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times MAN OF LA MANCHA GETS A DREAM PRODUCTION AT HALLE In the dark days of the Spanish Inquisition, the poet Cervantes created Don Quixote, his alter ego, an errant-knight who dares "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Through the writing device of a play-within-a-play we watch as Quixote, aided by his sidekick, Sancho, and his "lady" Dulcinea, go forth on a quest "to fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star," and to see life, not as it is, but as it ought to be. During the play when questioned about his absurd valor Quixote replies, "I hope to add some measure of grace to the world." It is this premise that was used as the lynchpin by the musical?s script writer Dale Wasserman, musical writer Mitch Leigh and lyricist Joe Darion as the basis for the amazing musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. The musical is a challenging task for any theatre to undertake. The music is difficult to play and sing, the cast is large, a strong men?s chorus is a necessity, the lead male must be outstanding, and fine technical features are needed to enhance the cast. The Halle Theatre production, under the masterful directing hand of Fred Sternfeld, the musical direction of Larry Hartzell, and the choreography by Martin Cespedes, is outstanding! Keith Nagy?s lighting and scenic designs and Alison Hernan?s costumes amplify the happenings. The intimacy of the Halle Theatre aids the production. As in its original New York staging at the now-gone ANTA Theatre, the production is "right in your face." It makes the happenings intimate and involving. The Halle cast is generally strong. Tom Fulton leaves nothing to be desired in his performance as Cervantes/Don Quixote. His voice is powerful, his stage presence striking, his acting skills character-focused. David Robeano is delightful as Sancho, but his constant cuteness becomes wearing after a while. Tracee Patterson, who sings adequately well, fails to make a real harlot out of Eldonza at the start of the production, thus robbing the audience of the true depth of her transformation to the pure Dulcinea pictured by Don Quixote, a center theme of the story. R. Scott Posey displays an impressive singing range as The Padre. Scott Spence as the Barber and Kevin Joseph Kelly as the Governor/Innkeeper are also strong. The men?s chorus is vocally outstanding, as was the orchestra. MAN OF LAMANCHA is a well-thought out, impressive production. This, along with the stagings of PARADE at Beck Center and Cassidy, give further evidence that the musical theatre is alive and very well in Greater Cleveland?s local venues. Notwithstanding the excellence of this production one must ask, as the program notes do, "So what?s a theater with a mission of producing plays on Jewish themes doing opening its season with MAN OF LAMANCHA?" In spite of dramaturg Faye Sholiton?s well-written and impassioned attempt to explain, the question is not answered. Halle Theatre plays a role very different from other local theatres. It is subsidized by and is an important part of the Jewish community. It has an obligation to do what other local theatres do not do...present exclusively Jewish-themed plays. When they stray from that, they betray the mission of the theatre. MAN OF LAMANCHA runs at the Halle Theatre, 3505 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights, through October 27. For tickets, which are $24 to public and $20 call for JCC members, call 216-382-4000, extension 274. I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! A DELIGHT AT CPT The stage is dark. The music, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" fills the theatre. A vision appears, a tall, long legged, muscular, full-busted woman with flowing red hair appears. Varla Jean Merman is here! Well, in actuality it?s Jeffery Roberson portraying Varla Jean. Don?t get the idea that this is a drag show. It?s not. Jeffery is Varla Jean. He/she also does all her own singing. No tapes of Liza, Bette or Barbra here. As Varla states, "I?m too self absorbed for that." The show, which is audience-inclusive, is part adlib, part music, part video, part double entendre, and full-time fun! This "woman" can sing. "She" can sing even when shooting canned cheese whiz down her throat. This "woman" can bat her eyelids and convulse an audience. Her rewritten version of MY FAIR LADY?S "Why Can?t the English" as a rap song is clever. Her Yodeling Weiner ventriloquism act convulses. The video of her attendance at her prom was delightful. Her final goodbye, complete with a plea to the audience to buy her c.d., left the audience laughing. Go to the show expecting the outrageous and you?ll go with the right attitude. Do go, you?ll be enraptured. VARLA JEAN MERMAN?S I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! runs at the Cleveland Public Theatre until October 20. For tickets, which range from $15 to $20, call 216-631-2727. For information go online to www.cptonline.org. THE SILVERS SHINE AT ENSEMBLE Dorothy and Reuben Silver are the crown jewels of Cleveland theatre. They recently donated their services for a series of benefit performances to raise funds for Ensemble Theatre. Their program LAUGHTER IN THREE LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, YIDDISH AND "YINGLISH" delighted the audience. It was a unique and entertaining evening of reading by the master storytellers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(Name to be determined at first meeting) WE ARE INVITING EVERYONE involved with film and theater to attend the first meeting of the Northern Ohio Visual Arts Association, in order to establish a non-profit organization to further visual arts in Northern Ohio. Everyone involved in the Film and Theater industry is welcome. Including Actors, Film Makers, Producers, Directors, Writers and all Crew Members. Be there for our first meeting, MONDAY OCTOBER 21ST at 7:30PM. The location will be... North Coast Central Casting 4913 Storer Ave. Cleveland, OH 44102 (216) 651-5441. What are the reasons for this organization you ask? 1. The Ohio Film Commission has closed down! 2. Cleveland Film Makers discontinued! 3. To establish a networking system for growth in visual arts! 4. No unity between Film & Theater! 5. To develop unity in a city, divided! THIS ASSOCIATION WILL BE OPEN TO ALL AND RUN AS A DEMOCRACY. Nominations, Elections, Board of Directors, Interim President and so forth will be the agenda for the first meeting. Representatives to the board of directors will include Interim President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Actors Rep, Extras Rep, Directors Rep, Producers Rep, Writers Rep, Crew Rep, Media Rep, Web Site Developer(s), and any other representatives deemed necessary at the first meeting. Meeting Agenda 7:30 to 8:00 PM - Meet & greet! 8:00 to 9:00 PM - Formation & organization meeting 9:00 PM - Nominations and election of officers. After the meeting will be the showing of the short film "We Have Your Daughter" by Bill Johns, Cinevid Productions. I think this is a worthwhile idea and it seems very sound, I support the concept. For myself, however, I know I cannot be a part because I now live in New York, but I will be moving back to Cleveland late summer, so it'd be nice to see this group get off the ground........................ Erik Van Gunten Thanks for the invite on the 21st. I would love to serve on the board or whatever is needed...........................Linda Winters (National Casting Director) As for the NOVA meeting (hey, there's your name), film and theater communities are separated everywhere, not just this state or region. It's sad really. I'd be glad to help out since I've worked in both, though obviously more extensively in film and video. I like your adherence to the importance of structure. I'll put my two cents in........................ Christopher Young I would definitely be into the idea of having such an organization in town.

The concert was the first in a series of events for National Hispanic Heritage Month. Working with minimal sets didn't stop the troupe from making a rain forest, a village, a cemetery and a shrine seem perfectly realized as a backdrop for the spirited and talented dancers who did everything right when casting their spell. There was "cute" with children Josh Colon and Alexis Generette Floyd dancing with unaffected grace as village youngsters. There was "funny" with the dancers suddenly turning into a tribe of chattering monkeys ( scratching fleas and all ). There was "sexy" with the sizzling hot pas de deux danced by the Everts. Above all, there was soulfulness and poetry-evidenced most poignantly in the maiden's dance with Death ( a perfectly convincing figure as portrayed by character dancer Tom Evert as a 12-foot tall skeleton in a serape) reminding us of the Mexican holiday honoring those who have passed away, "The Day of the Dead". There was nothing dead about this life-affirming performance by one of the area's most accomplished and distinguished dance ensembles. ~~~ "AMAZINGLY INVENTIVE" THE NEW YORK TIMES Please, come and experience ALMA DE LA TIERRA in Cleveland Oct 18, 19 at 8pm Oct 20 at 2pm TRI-C Metropolitan Campus Theater East 30th and Woodland Security and Parking Available 24 HRS !!

Margene Rannigan Richard............. Barry Wakser SYNOPSIS: The scene is an all-night diner in a sleepy southwestern town, the time early Sunday morning when the night attendant, young Stephen (Red) Ryder, is about to turn over his duties to his daytime counterpart, Angel. Her friend Lyle, who runs the filling station and motel across the road, stops by for breakfast followed by an affluent young couple en route to New Orleans. With the arrival of another couple, Teddy and Cheryl, the existing calm quickly vanishes. Their car, in which they are smuggling marijuana into California, has broken down, and while they wait for it to be repaired, Teddy begins to taunt and then bully the others in the diner. With black, sardonic humor he gets at each in turn, stripping away their pretensions and exposing their innermost secrets and fears. They are soon his helpless victims, too terrified to resist as he binds and robs them before heading off down the highway. In the end the others, after freeing themselves, realize that they have come through their ordeal without serious harm - at least physically. But for each a searing moment of truth has been faced and, in a deeper sense, they know that they have been changed more than they would have the desire, or perhaps the courage, to admit.

Peter Shaffer wrote masterpieces such as Equus, Amadeus, The Royal Hunt of the Sun, and Lettice and Lovage. In BLACK COMEDY, Peter Shaffer makes use of mistaken identity and pratfalls, as well as the Chinese Theatre device of light-dark reversal. Darkness, caused by a blown fuse, is seen in the theatre as a brilliantly illuminated room in which characters are blindly groping around.

Wei, founder of the American Museum of Asian Holocaust WWII (1931-1945) located in Falls Creek, Pennsylvania. This free lecture is an educational program to learn about the past history in order to avoid repeating the same errors again. Did you know that during WWII, out of ten American POWs who died, nine of them died in Japanese captivity while only one out of ten died in the German Nazi captivity? Did you know that over 30 million Chinese men, women and children were killed by the onslaught of the Japanese soldiers from 1931 to 1945 and at least 200 million Chinese people were made homeless refugees? Did you know that the atrocities committed during WWII in China by the Japanese soldiers and officers have not been taught in high school history curriculum across America? Mr. Wei's lecture and photos of forgotten stories of heroes during the WWII will help us understand the untold history of our past. He will talk about some tragic stories as well as heart-warming stories about heroics of that period of time in Asia, like the first American airman who died for justice against Japanese fliers in China; the story about Minnie Vautrin who saved more than 10,000 Chinese women from being raped or killed; American and Chinese POWs as slave laborers; the defense of Bataan peninsula by both American and Filipino soldiers and many others. A photo exhibit on the anthrax attack in China (1942-44) by the Japanese military will be shown. The free lecture will be held from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Asia Plaza's Conference Room (2nd Floor), 2999 Payne Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114. Tea refreshment will be provided. Limited seating, RSVP is suggested. For more information, please call 216-623-0822 or email Johnny at mdifilm.com. About Eugene L. Wei.

"Embracing the Hopes and Aspiration of Chinese and Asian Pacific Americans in the United States" From JHerman312 at aol.com Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 From: JHerman312 at aol.com (JHerman312 at aol.com) Date: Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]The Kent Stage to Open Bram Stoker's Dracula Message-ID: <146.15e8be.2ad6e25c@aol.com> --part1_146.15e8be.2ad6e25c_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10-10-02 Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio. The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio. KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume. Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs. Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate. As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today. And therein lies the horror. Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire. The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much. Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio.  The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio.

KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume.

Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs.

Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate.

As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today.

And therein lies the horror.

Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire.

The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much.

Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis. The audience will witness some grotesque scenes, and they will learn of Dracula's true nature simultaneously with the unknowing victims in this riveting thriller.

This is a play that promises to speak to us of light and darkness, fears, desires, weaknesses and humanity. Dracula is the embodiment of evil and can only be destroyed by reasserting basic and traditional values. This is a special performance not to be missed.

Individual show ticket prices are $10 for adults, $8 for students and senior citizens. Advanced tickets can be purchased for $5 at Brady's Leap, located in the lobby of the Kent Stage, 175 E. Main Street in Kent.  For ticket information, please call the Kent Stage box office at 330-677-5005.

Jacqueline Gerber
Special to The Plain Dealer

At Saturday's opening performance of "Man of La Mancha," the action began before the show did.

On the dimly lit stage, a man strummed a guitar. Casual groupings of men and women, dressed in tatters, held muted conversations and silent fights. Above them, iron bars created a daunting perimeter.

Slowly, the players revealed the grim social order of a 16th-century prison.

That sense of understated detail transforms "La Mancha" from aging musical chestnut to an engaging night in the theater.

Fred Sternfeld's taut and vocally strong production gives full rein to the sentimentality, bravado and despair at the heart of the 1965 Tony Award-winning musical.

In a superb performance, Tom Fulton seamlessly transforms himself from the troubled Miguel de Cervantes to the author's creation, the dotty, plumpish knight errant, Don Quixote, who is charmingly out of step with his surroundings.

Tracee Patterson's earthy and beautifully sung Aldonza seems occasionally low-key, but she creates an effective tension when she resists Quixote's flowery attempts to ennoble her.

Contemporary choreography by Martin Cespedes adds edgy athleticism. From stage fighting and exotic dancing to a horse ballet, the dancing also illustrates in harrowing realism the brutality that befalls Aldonza.

The exceptional cast includes excellent performances by David Robeano as a disarmingly sweet Sancho Panza and R. Scott Posey as the padre.

The prisoners, a motley crew of thieves, murderers and malcontents, are major assets. They sing and act with precision. In their rags and leathers, with menacing scowls, they look like contenders on the professional wrestling tour.

From newfangled at email.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 From: newfangled at email.com (Newfangled Productions) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]NFP presents the worst play ever written Message-ID: <20021012131407.23660.qmail@email.com>

What are you waiting for?

 

Newfangled Productions is ushering in their first season with the worst play ever written - Samuel Beckett's seminal play "Waiting for Godot."

(We're not sure what "seminal" means, but we read that in a magazine somewhere.)

Described by Beckett himself: "Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful."

Watch as:

* ACTORS talk to each other LIVE ON STAGE!

* One man walks around while another falls asleep RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!!

* Act Two IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS a brief intermission!!!

Tired of that same old theatre where plots develop, your heart is moved and THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPEN? Then come see WAITING FOR GODOT featuring these unfortunate actors (and can you believe they are actually getting paid to do this?):

Ryan McMullen as Estragon

Oliver Corrigan as Vladimir

Megan Elk as Pozzo

Jamie Russell as Lucky

Becca Borukhovsky as The Boy

Don't walk, RUN - to see the play about NOTHING and what so-called experts consider the most important play of the twentieth century.

Got nothing better to do? Here's the info:

From royberko at yahoo.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 From: royberko at yahoo.com (Roy Berko) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Reviews: La Mancha/Halle; Music/CPT; Silvers/Ensemble Message-ID: <20021012142538.65171.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> MAN OF LA MANCHA AT HALLE, I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME AT CPT, THE SILVERS AT ENSEMBLE Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) The Times Newspapers --Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times MAN OF LA MANCHA GETS A DREAM PRODUCTION AT HALLE In the dark days of the Spanish Inquisition, the poet Cervantes created Don Quixote, his alter ego, an errant-knight who dares "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Through the writing device of a play-within-a-play we watch as Quixote, aided by his sidekick, Sancho, and his "lady" Dulcinea, go forth on a quest "to fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star," and to see life, not as it is, but as it ought to be. During the play when questioned about his absurd valor Quixote replies, "I hope to add some measure of grace to the world." It is this premise that was used as the lynchpin by the musical?s script writer Dale Wasserman, musical writer Mitch Leigh and lyricist Joe Darion as the basis for the amazing musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. The musical is a challenging task for any theatre to undertake. The music is difficult to play and sing, the cast is large, a strong men?s chorus is a necessity, the lead male must be outstanding, and fine technical features are needed to enhance the cast. The Halle Theatre production, under the masterful directing hand of Fred Sternfeld, the musical direction of Larry Hartzell, and the choreography by Martin Cespedes, is outstanding! Keith Nagy?s lighting and scenic designs and Alison Hernan?s costumes amplify the happenings. The intimacy of the Halle Theatre aids the production. As in its original New York staging at the now-gone ANTA Theatre, the production is "right in your face." It makes the happenings intimate and involving. The Halle cast is generally strong. Tom Fulton leaves nothing to be desired in his performance as Cervantes/Don Quixote. His voice is powerful, his stage presence striking, his acting skills character-focused. David Robeano is delightful as Sancho, but his constant cuteness becomes wearing after a while. Tracee Patterson, who sings adequately well, fails to make a real harlot out of Eldonza at the start of the production, thus robbing the audience of the true depth of her transformation to the pure Dulcinea pictured by Don Quixote, a center theme of the story. R. Scott Posey displays an impressive singing range as The Padre. Scott Spence as the Barber and Kevin Joseph Kelly as the Governor/Innkeeper are also strong. The men?s chorus is vocally outstanding, as was the orchestra. MAN OF LAMANCHA is a well-thought out, impressive production. This, along with the stagings of PARADE at Beck Center and Cassidy, give further evidence that the musical theatre is alive and very well in Greater Cleveland?s local venues. Notwithstanding the excellence of this production one must ask, as the program notes do, "So what?s a theater with a mission of producing plays on Jewish themes doing opening its season with MAN OF LAMANCHA?" In spite of dramaturg Faye Sholiton?s well-written and impassioned attempt to explain, the question is not answered. Halle Theatre plays a role very different from other local theatres. It is subsidized by and is an important part of the Jewish community. It has an obligation to do what other local theatres do not do...present exclusively Jewish-themed plays. When they stray from that, they betray the mission of the theatre. MAN OF LAMANCHA runs at the Halle Theatre, 3505 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights, through October 27. For tickets, which are $24 to public and $20 call for JCC members, call 216-382-4000, extension 274. I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! A DELIGHT AT CPT The stage is dark. The music, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" fills the theatre. A vision appears, a tall, long legged, muscular, full-busted woman with flowing red hair appears. Varla Jean Merman is here! Well, in actuality it?s Jeffery Roberson portraying Varla Jean. Don?t get the idea that this is a drag show. It?s not. Jeffery is Varla Jean. He/she also does all her own singing. No tapes of Liza, Bette or Barbra here. As Varla states, "I?m too self absorbed for that." The show, which is audience-inclusive, is part adlib, part music, part video, part double entendre, and full-time fun! This "woman" can sing. "She" can sing even when shooting canned cheese whiz down her throat. This "woman" can bat her eyelids and convulse an audience. Her rewritten version of MY FAIR LADY?S "Why Can?t the English" as a rap song is clever. Her Yodeling Weiner ventriloquism act convulses. The video of her attendance at her prom was delightful. Her final goodbye, complete with a plea to the audience to buy her c.d., left the audience laughing. Go to the show expecting the outrageous and you?ll go with the right attitude. Do go, you?ll be enraptured. VARLA JEAN MERMAN?S I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! runs at the Cleveland Public Theatre until October 20. For tickets, which range from $15 to $20, call 216-631-2727. For information go online to www.cptonline.org. THE SILVERS SHINE AT ENSEMBLE Dorothy and Reuben Silver are the crown jewels of Cleveland theatre. They recently donated their services for a series of benefit performances to raise funds for Ensemble Theatre. Their program LAUGHTER IN THREE LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, YIDDISH AND "YINGLISH" delighted the audience. It was a unique and entertaining evening of reading by the master storytellers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(Name to be determined at first meeting) WE ARE INVITING EVERYONE involved with film and theater to attend the first meeting of the Northern Ohio Visual Arts Association, in order to establish a non-profit organization to further visual arts in Northern Ohio. Everyone involved in the Film and Theater industry is welcome. Including Actors, Film Makers, Producers, Directors, Writers and all Crew Members. Be there for our first meeting, MONDAY OCTOBER 21ST at 7:30PM. The location will be... North Coast Central Casting 4913 Storer Ave. Cleveland, OH 44102 (216) 651-5441. What are the reasons for this organization you ask? 1. The Ohio Film Commission has closed down! 2. Cleveland Film Makers discontinued! 3. To establish a networking system for growth in visual arts! 4. No unity between Film & Theater! 5. To develop unity in a city, divided! THIS ASSOCIATION WILL BE OPEN TO ALL AND RUN AS A DEMOCRACY. Nominations, Elections, Board of Directors, Interim President and so forth will be the agenda for the first meeting. Representatives to the board of directors will include Interim President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Actors Rep, Extras Rep, Directors Rep, Producers Rep, Writers Rep, Crew Rep, Media Rep, Web Site Developer(s), and any other representatives deemed necessary at the first meeting. Meeting Agenda 7:30 to 8:00 PM - Meet & greet! 8:00 to 9:00 PM - Formation & organization meeting 9:00 PM - Nominations and election of officers. After the meeting will be the showing of the short film "We Have Your Daughter" by Bill Johns, Cinevid Productions. I think this is a worthwhile idea and it seems very sound, I support the concept. For myself, however, I know I cannot be a part because I now live in New York, but I will be moving back to Cleveland late summer, so it'd be nice to see this group get off the ground........................ Erik Van Gunten Thanks for the invite on the 21st. I would love to serve on the board or whatever is needed...........................Linda Winters (National Casting Director) As for the NOVA meeting (hey, there's your name), film and theater communities are separated everywhere, not just this state or region. It's sad really. I'd be glad to help out since I've worked in both, though obviously more extensively in film and video. I like your adherence to the importance of structure. I'll put my two cents in........................ Christopher Young I would definitely be into the idea of having such an organization in town.

Susana and Tom Evert's Dance Theatre introduced the enthusiastic crowd to "magic realism" through the grace, imagination and skill of the dancers and choreography. The concert was the first in a series of events for National Hispanic Heritage Month. Working with minimal sets didn't stop the troupe from making a rain forest, a village, a cemetery and a shrine seem perfectly realized as a backdrop for the spirited and talented dancers who did everything right when casting their spell. There was "cute" with children Josh Colon and Alexis Generette Floyd dancing with unaffected grace as village youngsters. There was "funny" with the dancers suddenly turning into a tribe of chattering monkeys ( scratching fleas and all ). There was "sexy" with the sizzling hot pas de deux danced by the Everts. Above all, there was soulfulness and poetry-evidenced most poignantly in the maiden's dance with Death ( a perfectly convincing figure as portrayed by character dancer Tom Evert as a 12-foot tall skeleton in a serape) reminding us of the Mexican holiday honoring those who have passed away, "The Day of the Dead". There was nothing dead about this life-affirming performance by one of the area's most accomplished and distinguished dance ensembles. ~~~ "AMAZINGLY INVENTIVE" THE NEW YORK TIMES Please, come and experience ALMA DE LA TIERRA in Cleveland Oct 18, 19 at 8pm Oct 20 at 2pm TRI-C Metropolitan Campus Theater East 30th and Woodland Security and Parking Available 24 HRS !!

Margene Rannigan Richard............. Barry Wakser SYNOPSIS: The scene is an all-night diner in a sleepy southwestern town, the time early Sunday morning when the night attendant, young Stephen (Red) Ryder, is about to turn over his duties to his daytime counterpart, Angel. Her friend Lyle, who runs the filling station and motel across the road, stops by for breakfast followed by an affluent young couple en route to New Orleans. With the arrival of another couple, Teddy and Cheryl, the existing calm quickly vanishes. Their car, in which they are smuggling marijuana into California, has broken down, and while they wait for it to be repaired, Teddy begins to taunt and then bully the others in the diner. With black, sardonic humor he gets at each in turn, stripping away their pretensions and exposing their innermost secrets and fears. They are soon his helpless victims, too terrified to resist as he binds and robs them before heading off down the highway. In the end the others, after freeing themselves, realize that they have come through their ordeal without serious harm - at least physically. But for each a searing moment of truth has been faced and, in a deeper sense, they know that they have been changed more than they would have the desire, or perhaps the courage, to admit.

Wei, founder of the American Museum of Asian Holocaust WWII (1931-1945) located in Falls Creek, Pennsylvania. This free lecture is an educational program to learn about the past history in order to avoid repeating the same errors again. Did you know that during WWII, out of ten American POWs who died, nine of them died in Japanese captivity while only one out of ten died in the German Nazi captivity? Did you know that over 30 million Chinese men, women and children were killed by the onslaught of the Japanese soldiers from 1931 to 1945 and at least 200 million Chinese people were made homeless refugees? Did you know that the atrocities committed during WWII in China by the Japanese soldiers and officers have not been taught in high school history curriculum across America? Mr. Wei's lecture and photos of forgotten stories of heroes during the WWII will help us understand the untold history of our past. He will talk about some tragic stories as well as heart-warming stories about heroics of that period of time in Asia, like the first American airman who died for justice against Japanese fliers in China; the story about Minnie Vautrin who saved more than 10,000 Chinese women from being raped or killed; American and Chinese POWs as slave laborers; the defense of Bataan peninsula by both American and Filipino soldiers and many others. A photo exhibit on the anthrax attack in China (1942-44) by the Japanese military will be shown. The free lecture will be held from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Asia Plaza's Conference Room (2nd Floor), 2999 Payne Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114. Tea refreshment will be provided. Limited seating, RSVP is suggested. For more information, please call 216-623-0822 or email Johnny at mdifilm.com. About Eugene L. Wei.

"Embracing the Hopes and Aspiration of Chinese and Asian Pacific Americans in the United States" From JHerman312 at aol.com Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 From: JHerman312 at aol.com (JHerman312 at aol.com) Date: Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]The Kent Stage to Open Bram Stoker's Dracula Message-ID: <146.15e8be.2ad6e25c@aol.com> --part1_146.15e8be.2ad6e25c_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10-10-02 Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio. The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio. KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume. Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs. Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate. As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today. And therein lies the horror. Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire. The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much. Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio.  The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio.

KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume.

Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs.

Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate.

As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today.

And therein lies the horror.

Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire.

The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much.

Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis. The audience will witness some grotesque scenes, and they will learn of Dracula's true nature simultaneously with the unknowing victims in this riveting thriller.

This is a play that promises to speak to us of light and darkness, fears, desires, weaknesses and humanity. Dracula is the embodiment of evil and can only be destroyed by reasserting basic and traditional values. This is a special performance not to be missed.

Individual show ticket prices are $10 for adults, $8 for students and senior citizens. Advanced tickets can be purchased for $5 at Brady's Leap, located in the lobby of the Kent Stage, 175 E. Main Street in Kent.  For ticket information, please call the Kent Stage box office at 330-677-5005.

Jacqueline Gerber
Special to The Plain Dealer

At Saturday's opening performance of "Man of La Mancha," the action began before the show did.

On the dimly lit stage, a man strummed a guitar. Casual groupings of men and women, dressed in tatters, held muted conversations and silent fights. Above them, iron bars created a daunting perimeter.

Slowly, the players revealed the grim social order of a 16th-century prison.

That sense of understated detail transforms "La Mancha" from aging musical chestnut to an engaging night in the theater.

Fred Sternfeld's taut and vocally strong production gives full rein to the sentimentality, bravado and despair at the heart of the 1965 Tony Award-winning musical.

In a superb performance, Tom Fulton seamlessly transforms himself from the troubled Miguel de Cervantes to the author's creation, the dotty, plumpish knight errant, Don Quixote, who is charmingly out of step with his surroundings.

Tracee Patterson's earthy and beautifully sung Aldonza seems occasionally low-key, but she creates an effective tension when she resists Quixote's flowery attempts to ennoble her.

Contemporary choreography by Martin Cespedes adds edgy athleticism. From stage fighting and exotic dancing to a horse ballet, the dancing also illustrates in harrowing realism the brutality that befalls Aldonza.

The exceptional cast includes excellent performances by David Robeano as a disarmingly sweet Sancho Panza and R. Scott Posey as the padre.

The prisoners, a motley crew of thieves, murderers and malcontents, are major assets. They sing and act with precision. In their rags and leathers, with menacing scowls, they look like contenders on the professional wrestling tour.

From newfangled at email.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 From: newfangled at email.com (Newfangled Productions) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]NFP presents the worst play ever written Message-ID: <20021012131407.23660.qmail@email.com>

What are you waiting for?

 

Newfangled Productions is ushering in their first season with the worst play ever written - Samuel Beckett's seminal play "Waiting for Godot."

(We're not sure what "seminal" means, but we read that in a magazine somewhere.)

Described by Beckett himself: "Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful."

Watch as:

* ACTORS talk to each other LIVE ON STAGE!

* One man walks around while another falls asleep RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!!

* Act Two IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS a brief intermission!!!

Tired of that same old theatre where plots develop, your heart is moved and THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPEN? Then come see WAITING FOR GODOT featuring these unfortunate actors (and can you believe they are actually getting paid to do this?):

Ryan McMullen as Estragon

Oliver Corrigan as Vladimir

Megan Elk as Pozzo

Jamie Russell as Lucky

Becca Borukhovsky as The Boy

Don't walk, RUN - to see the play about NOTHING and what so-called experts consider the most important play of the twentieth century.

Got nothing better to do? Here's the info:

From royberko at yahoo.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 From: royberko at yahoo.com (Roy Berko) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Reviews: La Mancha/Halle; Music/CPT; Silvers/Ensemble Message-ID: <20021012142538.65171.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> MAN OF LA MANCHA AT HALLE, I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME AT CPT, THE SILVERS AT ENSEMBLE Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) The Times Newspapers --Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times MAN OF LA MANCHA GETS A DREAM PRODUCTION AT HALLE In the dark days of the Spanish Inquisition, the poet Cervantes created Don Quixote, his alter ego, an errant-knight who dares "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Through the writing device of a play-within-a-play we watch as Quixote, aided by his sidekick, Sancho, and his "lady" Dulcinea, go forth on a quest "to fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star," and to see life, not as it is, but as it ought to be. During the play when questioned about his absurd valor Quixote replies, "I hope to add some measure of grace to the world." It is this premise that was used as the lynchpin by the musical?s script writer Dale Wasserman, musical writer Mitch Leigh and lyricist Joe Darion as the basis for the amazing musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. The musical is a challenging task for any theatre to undertake. The music is difficult to play and sing, the cast is large, a strong men?s chorus is a necessity, the lead male must be outstanding, and fine technical features are needed to enhance the cast. The Halle Theatre production, under the masterful directing hand of Fred Sternfeld, the musical direction of Larry Hartzell, and the choreography by Martin Cespedes, is outstanding! Keith Nagy?s lighting and scenic designs and Alison Hernan?s costumes amplify the happenings. The intimacy of the Halle Theatre aids the production. As in its original New York staging at the now-gone ANTA Theatre, the production is "right in your face." It makes the happenings intimate and involving. The Halle cast is generally strong. Tom Fulton leaves nothing to be desired in his performance as Cervantes/Don Quixote. His voice is powerful, his stage presence striking, his acting skills character-focused. David Robeano is delightful as Sancho, but his constant cuteness becomes wearing after a while. Tracee Patterson, who sings adequately well, fails to make a real harlot out of Eldonza at the start of the production, thus robbing the audience of the true depth of her transformation to the pure Dulcinea pictured by Don Quixote, a center theme of the story. R. Scott Posey displays an impressive singing range as The Padre. Scott Spence as the Barber and Kevin Joseph Kelly as the Governor/Innkeeper are also strong. The men?s chorus is vocally outstanding, as was the orchestra. MAN OF LAMANCHA is a well-thought out, impressive production. This, along with the stagings of PARADE at Beck Center and Cassidy, give further evidence that the musical theatre is alive and very well in Greater Cleveland?s local venues. Notwithstanding the excellence of this production one must ask, as the program notes do, "So what?s a theater with a mission of producing plays on Jewish themes doing opening its season with MAN OF LAMANCHA?" In spite of dramaturg Faye Sholiton?s well-written and impassioned attempt to explain, the question is not answered. Halle Theatre plays a role very different from other local theatres. It is subsidized by and is an important part of the Jewish community. It has an obligation to do what other local theatres do not do...present exclusively Jewish-themed plays. When they stray from that, they betray the mission of the theatre. MAN OF LAMANCHA runs at the Halle Theatre, 3505 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights, through October 27. For tickets, which are $24 to public and $20 call for JCC members, call 216-382-4000, extension 274. I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! A DELIGHT AT CPT The stage is dark. The music, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" fills the theatre. A vision appears, a tall, long legged, muscular, full-busted woman with flowing red hair appears. Varla Jean Merman is here! Well, in actuality it?s Jeffery Roberson portraying Varla Jean. Don?t get the idea that this is a drag show. It?s not. Jeffery is Varla Jean. He/she also does all her own singing. No tapes of Liza, Bette or Barbra here. As Varla states, "I?m too self absorbed for that." The show, which is audience-inclusive, is part adlib, part music, part video, part double entendre, and full-time fun! This "woman" can sing. "She" can sing even when shooting canned cheese whiz down her throat. This "woman" can bat her eyelids and convulse an audience. Her rewritten version of MY FAIR LADY?S "Why Can?t the English" as a rap song is clever. Her Yodeling Weiner ventriloquism act convulses. The video of her attendance at her prom was delightful. Her final goodbye, complete with a plea to the audience to buy her c.d., left the audience laughing. Go to the show expecting the outrageous and you?ll go with the right attitude. Do go, you?ll be enraptured. VARLA JEAN MERMAN?S I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! runs at the Cleveland Public Theatre until October 20. For tickets, which range from $15 to $20, call 216-631-2727. For information go online to www.cptonline.org. THE SILVERS SHINE AT ENSEMBLE Dorothy and Reuben Silver are the crown jewels of Cleveland theatre. They recently donated their services for a series of benefit performances to raise funds for Ensemble Theatre. Their program LAUGHTER IN THREE LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, YIDDISH AND "YINGLISH" delighted the audience. It was a unique and entertaining evening of reading by the master storytellers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(Name to be determined at first meeting) WE ARE INVITING EVERYONE involved with film and theater to attend the first meeting of the Northern Ohio Visual Arts Association, in order to establish a non-profit organization to further visual arts in Northern Ohio. Everyone involved in the Film and Theater industry is welcome. Including Actors, Film Makers, Producers, Directors, Writers and all Crew Members. Be there for our first meeting, MONDAY OCTOBER 21ST at 7:30PM. The location will be... North Coast Central Casting 4913 Storer Ave. Cleveland, OH 44102 (216) 651-5441. What are the reasons for this organization you ask? 1. The Ohio Film Commission has closed down! 2. Cleveland Film Makers discontinued! 3. To establish a networking system for growth in visual arts! 4. No unity between Film & Theater! 5. To develop unity in a city, divided! THIS ASSOCIATION WILL BE OPEN TO ALL AND RUN AS A DEMOCRACY. Nominations, Elections, Board of Directors, Interim President and so forth will be the agenda for the first meeting. Representatives to the board of directors will include Interim President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Actors Rep, Extras Rep, Directors Rep, Producers Rep, Writers Rep, Crew Rep, Media Rep, Web Site Developer(s), and any other representatives deemed necessary at the first meeting. Meeting Agenda 7:30 to 8:00 PM - Meet & greet! 8:00 to 9:00 PM - Formation & organization meeting 9:00 PM - Nominations and election of officers. After the meeting will be the showing of the short film "We Have Your Daughter" by Bill Johns, Cinevid Productions. I think this is a worthwhile idea and it seems very sound, I support the concept. For myself, however, I know I cannot be a part because I now live in New York, but I will be moving back to Cleveland late summer, so it'd be nice to see this group get off the ground........................ Erik Van Gunten Thanks for the invite on the 21st. I would love to serve on the board or whatever is needed...........................Linda Winters (National Casting Director) As for the NOVA meeting (hey, there's your name), film and theater communities are separated everywhere, not just this state or region. It's sad really. I'd be glad to help out since I've worked in both, though obviously more extensively in film and video. I like your adherence to the importance of structure. I'll put my two cents in........................ Christopher Young I would definitely be into the idea of having such an organization in town.

Susana and Tom Evert's Dance Theatre introduced the enthusiastic crowd to "magic realism" through the grace, imagination and skill of the dancers and choreography. The concert was the first in a series of events for National Hispanic Heritage Month. Working with minimal sets didn't stop the troupe from making a rain forest, a village, a cemetery and a shrine seem perfectly realized as a backdrop for the spirited and talented dancers who did everything right when casting their spell. There was "cute" with children Josh Colon and Alexis Generette Floyd dancing with unaffected grace as village youngsters. There was "funny" with the dancers suddenly turning into a tribe of chattering monkeys ( scratching fleas and all ). There was "sexy" with the sizzling hot pas de deux danced by the Everts. Above all, there was soulfulness and poetry-evidenced most poignantly in the maiden's dance with Death ( a perfectly convincing figure as portrayed by character dancer Tom Evert as a 12-foot tall skeleton in a serape) reminding us of the Mexican holiday honoring those who have passed away, "The Day of the Dead". There was nothing dead about this life-affirming performance by one of the area's most accomplished and distinguished dance ensembles. ~~~ "AMAZINGLY INVENTIVE" THE NEW YORK TIMES Please, come and experience ALMA DE LA TIERRA in Cleveland Oct 18, 19 at 8pm Oct 20 at 2pm TRI-C Metropolitan Campus Theater East 30th and Woodland Security and Parking Available 24 HRS !!

Margene Rannigan Richard............. Barry Wakser SYNOPSIS: The scene is an all-night diner in a sleepy southwestern town, the time early Sunday morning when the night attendant, young Stephen (Red) Ryder, is about to turn over his duties to his daytime counterpart, Angel. Her friend Lyle, who runs the filling station and motel across the road, stops by for breakfast followed by an affluent young couple en route to New Orleans. With the arrival of another couple, Teddy and Cheryl, the existing calm quickly vanishes. Their car, in which they are smuggling marijuana into California, has broken down, and while they wait for it to be repaired, Teddy begins to taunt and then bully the others in the diner. With black, sardonic humor he gets at each in turn, stripping away their pretensions and exposing their innermost secrets and fears. They are soon his helpless victims, too terrified to resist as he binds and robs them before heading off down the highway. In the end the others, after freeing themselves, realize that they have come through their ordeal without serious harm - at least physically. But for each a searing moment of truth has been faced and, in a deeper sense, they know that they have been changed more than they would have the desire, or perhaps the courage, to admit.

Wei, founder of the American Museum of Asian Holocaust WWII (1931-1945) located in Falls Creek, Pennsylvania. This free lecture is an educational program to learn about the past history in order to avoid repeating the same errors again. Did you know that during WWII, out of ten American POWs who died, nine of them died in Japanese captivity while only one out of ten died in the German Nazi captivity? Did you know that over 30 million Chinese men, women and children were killed by the onslaught of the Japanese soldiers from 1931 to 1945 and at least 200 million Chinese people were made homeless refugees? Did you know that the atrocities committed during WWII in China by the Japanese soldiers and officers have not been taught in high school history curriculum across America? Mr. Wei's lecture and photos of forgotten stories of heroes during the WWII will help us understand the untold history of our past. He will talk about some tragic stories as well as heart-warming stories about heroics of that period of time in Asia, like the first American airman who died for justice against Japanese fliers in China; the story about Minnie Vautrin who saved more than 10,000 Chinese women from being raped or killed; American and Chinese POWs as slave laborers; the defense of Bataan peninsula by both American and Filipino soldiers and many others. A photo exhibit on the anthrax attack in China (1942-44) by the Japanese military will be shown. The free lecture will be held from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Asia Plaza's Conference Room (2nd Floor), 2999 Payne Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114. Tea refreshment will be provided. Limited seating, RSVP is suggested. For more information, please call 216-623-0822 or email Johnny at mdifilm.com. About Eugene L. Wei.

"Embracing the Hopes and Aspiration of Chinese and Asian Pacific Americans in the United States" From JHerman312 at aol.com Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 From: JHerman312 at aol.com (JHerman312 at aol.com) Date: Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]The Kent Stage to Open Bram Stoker's Dracula Message-ID: <146.15e8be.2ad6e25c@aol.com> --part1_146.15e8be.2ad6e25c_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10-10-02 Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio. The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio. KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume. Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs. Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate. As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today. And therein lies the horror. Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire. The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much. Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio.  The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio.

KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume.

Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs.

Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate.

As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today.

And therein lies the horror.

Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire.

The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much.

Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis. The audience will witness some grotesque scenes, and they will learn of Dracula's true nature simultaneously with the unknowing victims in this riveting thriller.

This is a play that promises to speak to us of light and darkness, fears, desires, weaknesses and humanity. Dracula is the embodiment of evil and can only be destroyed by reasserting basic and traditional values. This is a special performance not to be missed.

Individual show ticket prices are $10 for adults, $8 for students and senior citizens. Advanced tickets can be purchased for $5 at Brady's Leap, located in the lobby of the Kent Stage, 175 E. Main Street in Kent.  For ticket information, please call the Kent Stage box office at 330-677-5005.

Jacqueline Gerber
Special to The Plain Dealer

At Saturday's opening performance of "Man of La Mancha," the action began before the show did.

On the dimly lit stage, a man strummed a guitar. Casual groupings of men and women, dressed in tatters, held muted conversations and silent fights. Above them, iron bars created a daunting perimeter.

Slowly, the players revealed the grim social order of a 16th-century prison.

That sense of understated detail transforms "La Mancha" from aging musical chestnut to an engaging night in the theater.

Fred Sternfeld's taut and vocally strong production gives full rein to the sentimentality, bravado and despair at the heart of the 1965 Tony Award-winning musical.

In a superb performance, Tom Fulton seamlessly transforms himself from the troubled Miguel de Cervantes to the author's creation, the dotty, plumpish knight errant, Don Quixote, who is charmingly out of step with his surroundings.

Tracee Patterson's earthy and beautifully sung Aldonza seems occasionally low-key, but she creates an effective tension when she resists Quixote's flowery attempts to ennoble her.

Contemporary choreography by Martin Cespedes adds edgy athleticism. From stage fighting and exotic dancing to a horse ballet, the dancing also illustrates in harrowing realism the brutality that befalls Aldonza.

The exceptional cast includes excellent performances by David Robeano as a disarmingly sweet Sancho Panza and R. Scott Posey as the padre.

The prisoners, a motley crew of thieves, murderers and malcontents, are major assets. They sing and act with precision. In their rags and leathers, with menacing scowls, they look like contenders on the professional wrestling tour.

From newfangled at email.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 From: newfangled at email.com (Newfangled Productions) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]NFP presents the worst play ever written Message-ID: <20021012131407.23660.qmail@email.com>

What are you waiting for?

 

Newfangled Productions is ushering in their first season with the worst play ever written - Samuel Beckett's seminal play "Waiting for Godot."

(We're not sure what "seminal" means, but we read that in a magazine somewhere.)

Described by Beckett himself: "Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful."

Watch as:

* ACTORS talk to each other LIVE ON STAGE!

* One man walks around while another falls asleep RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!!

* Act Two IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS a brief intermission!!!

Tired of that same old theatre where plots develop, your heart is moved and THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPEN? Then come see WAITING FOR GODOT featuring these unfortunate actors (and can you believe they are actually getting paid to do this?):

Ryan McMullen as Estragon

Oliver Corrigan as Vladimir

Megan Elk as Pozzo

Jamie Russell as Lucky

Becca Borukhovsky as The Boy

Don't walk, RUN - to see the play about NOTHING and what so-called experts consider the most important play of the twentieth century.

Got nothing better to do? Here's the info:

From royberko at yahoo.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 From: royberko at yahoo.com (Roy Berko) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Reviews: La Mancha/Halle; Music/CPT; Silvers/Ensemble Message-ID: <20021012142538.65171.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> MAN OF LA MANCHA AT HALLE, I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME AT CPT, THE SILVERS AT ENSEMBLE Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) The Times Newspapers --Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times MAN OF LA MANCHA GETS A DREAM PRODUCTION AT HALLE In the dark days of the Spanish Inquisition, the poet Cervantes created Don Quixote, his alter ego, an errant-knight who dares "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Through the writing device of a play-within-a-play we watch as Quixote, aided by his sidekick, Sancho, and his "lady" Dulcinea, go forth on a quest "to fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star," and to see life, not as it is, but as it ought to be. During the play when questioned about his absurd valor Quixote replies, "I hope to add some measure of grace to the world." It is this premise that was used as the lynchpin by the musical?s script writer Dale Wasserman, musical writer Mitch Leigh and lyricist Joe Darion as the basis for the amazing musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. The musical is a challenging task for any theatre to undertake. The music is difficult to play and sing, the cast is large, a strong men?s chorus is a necessity, the lead male must be outstanding, and fine technical features are needed to enhance the cast. The Halle Theatre production, under the masterful directing hand of Fred Sternfeld, the musical direction of Larry Hartzell, and the choreography by Martin Cespedes, is outstanding! Keith Nagy?s lighting and scenic designs and Alison Hernan?s costumes amplify the happenings. The intimacy of the Halle Theatre aids the production. As in its original New York staging at the now-gone ANTA Theatre, the production is "right in your face." It makes the happenings intimate and involving. The Halle cast is generally strong. Tom Fulton leaves nothing to be desired in his performance as Cervantes/Don Quixote. His voice is powerful, his stage presence striking, his acting skills character-focused. David Robeano is delightful as Sancho, but his constant cuteness becomes wearing after a while. Tracee Patterson, who sings adequately well, fails to make a real harlot out of Eldonza at the start of the production, thus robbing the audience of the true depth of her transformation to the pure Dulcinea pictured by Don Quixote, a center theme of the story. R. Scott Posey displays an impressive singing range as The Padre. Scott Spence as the Barber and Kevin Joseph Kelly as the Governor/Innkeeper are also strong. The men?s chorus is vocally outstanding, as was the orchestra. MAN OF LAMANCHA is a well-thought out, impressive production. This, along with the stagings of PARADE at Beck Center and Cassidy, give further evidence that the musical theatre is alive and very well in Greater Cleveland?s local venues. Notwithstanding the excellence of this production one must ask, as the program notes do, "So what?s a theater with a mission of producing plays on Jewish themes doing opening its season with MAN OF LAMANCHA?" In spite of dramaturg Faye Sholiton?s well-written and impassioned attempt to explain, the question is not answered. Halle Theatre plays a role very different from other local theatres. It is subsidized by and is an important part of the Jewish community. It has an obligation to do what other local theatres do not do...present exclusively Jewish-themed plays. When they stray from that, they betray the mission of the theatre. MAN OF LAMANCHA runs at the Halle Theatre, 3505 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights, through October 27. For tickets, which are $24 to public and $20 call for JCC members, call 216-382-4000, extension 274. I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! A DELIGHT AT CPT The stage is dark. The music, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" fills the theatre. A vision appears, a tall, long legged, muscular, full-busted woman with flowing red hair appears. Varla Jean Merman is here! Well, in actuality it?s Jeffery Roberson portraying Varla Jean. Don?t get the idea that this is a drag show. It?s not. Jeffery is Varla Jean. He/she also does all her own singing. No tapes of Liza, Bette or Barbra here. As Varla states, "I?m too self absorbed for that." The show, which is audience-inclusive, is part adlib, part music, part video, part double entendre, and full-time fun! This "woman" can sing. "She" can sing even when shooting canned cheese whiz down her throat. This "woman" can bat her eyelids and convulse an audience. Her rewritten version of MY FAIR LADY?S "Why Can?t the English" as a rap song is clever. Her Yodeling Weiner ventriloquism act convulses. The video of her attendance at her prom was delightful. Her final goodbye, complete with a plea to the audience to buy her c.d., left the audience laughing. Go to the show expecting the outrageous and you?ll go with the right attitude. Do go, you?ll be enraptured. VARLA JEAN MERMAN?S I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! runs at the Cleveland Public Theatre until October 20. For tickets, which range from $15 to $20, call 216-631-2727. For information go online to www.cptonline.org. THE SILVERS SHINE AT ENSEMBLE Dorothy and Reuben Silver are the crown jewels of Cleveland theatre. They recently donated their services for a series of benefit performances to raise funds for Ensemble Theatre. Their program LAUGHTER IN THREE LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, YIDDISH AND "YINGLISH" delighted the audience. It was a unique and entertaining evening of reading by the master storytellers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(Name to be determined at first meeting) WE ARE INVITING EVERYONE involved with film and theater to attend the first meeting of the Northern Ohio Visual Arts Association, in order to establish a non-profit organization to further visual arts in Northern Ohio. Everyone involved in the Film and Theater industry is welcome. Including Actors, Film Makers, Producers, Directors, Writers and all Crew Members. Be there for our first meeting, MONDAY OCTOBER 21ST at 7:30PM. The location will be... North Coast Central Casting 4913 Storer Ave. Cleveland, OH 44102 (216) 651-5441. What are the reasons for this organization you ask? 1. The Ohio Film Commission has closed down! 2. Cleveland Film Makers discontinued! 3. To establish a networking system for growth in visual arts! 4. No unity between Film & Theater! 5. To develop unity in a city, divided! THIS ASSOCIATION WILL BE OPEN TO ALL AND RUN AS A DEMOCRACY. Nominations, Elections, Board of Directors, Interim President and so forth will be the agenda for the first meeting. Representatives to the board of directors will include Interim President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Actors Rep, Extras Rep, Directors Rep, Producers Rep, Writers Rep, Crew Rep, Media Rep, Web Site Developer(s), and any other representatives deemed necessary at the first meeting. Meeting Agenda 7:30 to 8:00 PM - Meet & greet! 8:00 to 9:00 PM - Formation & organization meeting 9:00 PM - Nominations and election of officers. After the meeting will be the showing of the short film "We Have Your Daughter" by Bill Johns, Cinevid Productions. I think this is a worthwhile idea and it seems very sound, I support the concept. For myself, however, I know I cannot be a part because I now live in New York, but I will be moving back to Cleveland late summer, so it'd be nice to see this group get off the ground........................ Erik Van Gunten Thanks for the invite on the 21st. I would love to serve on the board or whatever is needed...........................Linda Winters (National Casting Director) As for the NOVA meeting (hey, there's your name), film and theater communities are separated everywhere, not just this state or region. It's sad really. I'd be glad to help out since I've worked in both, though obviously more extensively in film and video. I like your adherence to the importance of structure. I'll put my two cents in........................ Christopher Young I would definitely be into the idea of having such an organization in town.

Susana and Tom Evert's Dance Theatre introduced the enthusiastic crowd to "magic realism" through the grace, imagination and skill of the dancers and choreography. The concert was the first in a series of events for National Hispanic Heritage Month. Working with minimal sets didn't stop the troupe from making a rain forest, a village, a cemetery and a shrine seem perfectly realized as a backdrop for the spirited and talented dancers who did everything right when casting their spell. There was "cute" with children Josh Colon and Alexis Generette Floyd dancing with unaffected grace as village youngsters. There was "funny" with the dancers suddenly turning into a tribe of chattering monkeys ( scratching fleas and all ). There was "sexy" with the sizzling hot pas de deux danced by the Everts. Above all, there was soulfulness and poetry-evidenced most poignantly in the maiden's dance with Death ( a perfectly convincing figure as portrayed by character dancer Tom Evert as a 12-foot tall skeleton in a serape) reminding us of the Mexican holiday honoring those who have passed away, "The Day of the Dead". There was nothing dead about this life-affirming performance by one of the area's most accomplished and distinguished dance ensembles. ~~~ "AMAZINGLY INVENTIVE" THE NEW YORK TIMES Please, come and experience ALMA DE LA TIERRA in Cleveland Oct 18, 19 at 8pm Oct 20 at 2pm TRI-C Metropolitan Campus Theater East 30th and Woodland Security and Parking Available 24 HRS !!

Margene Rannigan Richard............. Barry Wakser SYNOPSIS: The scene is an all-night diner in a sleepy southwestern town, the time early Sunday morning when the night attendant, young Stephen (Red) Ryder, is about to turn over his duties to his daytime counterpart, Angel. Her friend Lyle, who runs the filling station and motel across the road, stops by for breakfast followed by an affluent young couple en route to New Orleans. With the arrival of another couple, Teddy and Cheryl, the existing calm quickly vanishes. Their car, in which they are smuggling marijuana into California, has broken down, and while they wait for it to be repaired, Teddy begins to taunt and then bully the others in the diner. With black, sardonic humor he gets at each in turn, stripping away their pretensions and exposing their innermost secrets and fears. They are soon his helpless victims, too terrified to resist as he binds and robs them before heading off down the highway. In the end the others, after freeing themselves, realize that they have come through their ordeal without serious harm - at least physically. But for each a searing moment of truth has been faced and, in a deeper sense, they know that they have been changed more than they would have the desire, or perhaps the courage, to admit.

Wei, founder of the American Museum of Asian Holocaust WWII (1931-1945) located in Falls Creek, Pennsylvania. This free lecture is an educational program to learn about the past history in order to avoid repeating the same errors again. Did you know that during WWII, out of ten American POWs who died, nine of them died in Japanese captivity while only one out of ten died in the German Nazi captivity? Did you know that over 30 million Chinese men, women and children were killed by the onslaught of the Japanese soldiers from 1931 to 1945 and at least 200 million Chinese people were made homeless refugees? Did you know that the atrocities committed during WWII in China by the Japanese soldiers and officers have not been taught in high school history curriculum across America? Mr. Wei's lecture and photos of forgotten stories of heroes during the WWII will help us understand the untold history of our past. He will talk about some tragic stories as well as heart-warming stories about heroics of that period of time in Asia, like the first American airman who died for justice against Japanese fliers in China; the story about Minnie Vautrin who saved more than 10,000 Chinese women from being raped or killed; American and Chinese POWs as slave laborers; the defense of Bataan peninsula by both American and Filipino soldiers and many others. A photo exhibit on the anthrax attack in China (1942-44) by the Japanese military will be shown. The free lecture will be held from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Asia Plaza's Conference Room (2nd Floor), 2999 Payne Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114. Tea refreshment will be provided. Limited seating, RSVP is suggested. For more information, please call 216-623-0822 or email Johnny at mdifilm.com. About Eugene L. Wei.

"Embracing the Hopes and Aspiration of Chinese and Asian Pacific Americans in the United States" From JHerman312 at aol.com Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 From: JHerman312 at aol.com (JHerman312 at aol.com) Date: Thu Oct 10 09:56:31 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]The Kent Stage to Open Bram Stoker's Dracula Message-ID: <146.15e8be.2ad6e25c@aol.com> --part1_146.15e8be.2ad6e25c_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10-10-02 Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio. The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio. KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume. Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs. Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate. As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today. And therein lies the horror. Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire. The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much. Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Media Advisory: The Kent Stage is proud to present, "Bram Stoker's Dracula," a suspenseful adaptation by local playwright, Jack L. Herman. The show runs Oct. 18, 19, 26th and Nov. 1 & 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. The Kent Stage is located at 175 E. Main Street, Kent, Ohio.  The production is performed by the Actors Repertory Company of Ohio.

KENT - OH. The Kent Stage promises to cast a dark spell upon you with a new derivation of "Bram Stroker's Dracula" that will leave visitors gasping for air. The show gets going and the blood starts flowing Oct. 18 and continues nightly through Nov. 2nd. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Anyone attending the Oct. 26th performance are encouraged to come in their favorite costume.

Jack Herman's gripping interpretation exerts entrancing displays of raw sexuality, chilling brutality and quirky humor, which paints a wickedly theatrical picture. When you exit, you will have witnessed firsthand what you previously could only imagine in the novel: Fright, Fun and Fangs.

Under the direction of Joseph Ledford, the spine-curdling tale originates in 19th century Victorian London, as society is overtaken by unexpected darkness. Residents must try to assemble clues of Count Dracula's appearances. Residents must make sense of Dracula, played by Brian Keith, or else face dire circumstances such as serving as the villain's next blood-bank or possibly succumbing to a hideous fate.

As the play continues, we are irresistibly drawn into a world where evil can steal into our safest sanctuaries: the minds and hearts of those we love. Although the play is set in the well-mannered Victorian age, it accentuates many of the same anxieties that possess our culture today.

And therein lies the horror.

Personifying that which is good in the play is the innocent and independent Mina, a role taken by Erin LaFountain. Mina's friend, Lucy, who is worldly and flirtatious, is played by Emily Haase. Their actions create sexual undertones, especially exhibited by their seductions to Dracula. This demonstrates that even the purist of hearts can't escape the wrath of the infamous vampire.

The good fellows who court the two women, Jonathon Harker, played by Mark Landskroner, and Dr. John Seward, played by Mark A. Colella, Quincey P. Morris, played by Daniel Volk, and Arthur Holmwood, played by Michael DiFranco, are a confused group hindered by their lack of imagination. Yet when they enlist the help of a noted Professor, Abraham Van Helsing, played by Todd Kotler, they are introduced to pure Gothic archetype: crucifixes, mirrors, rosaries, and even strings of garlic. In fact, it's the captivating Professor who commands a final charge of light and hope against the dark forces of Dracula and his blood-sucking, night-stalking disciples. However, three vixens, played by Liz Lloyd, Darlene Fonzi and Tina Thompkins - might interfere with Dracula's downfall. William Morgan concludes the cast, as he plays Renfield, a fly-and bird-eating resident of the insane asylum who knows just a little too much.

Herman's play brings us along for a frightening journey interspersed with daring special effects and the inherent humor of human nature in crisis. The audience will witness some grotesque scenes, and they will learn of Dracula's true nature simultaneously with the unknowing victims in this riveting thriller.

This is a play that promises to speak to us of light and darkness, fears, desires, weaknesses and humanity. Dracula is the embodiment of evil and can only be destroyed by reasserting basic and traditional values. This is a special performance not to be missed.

Individual show ticket prices are $10 for adults, $8 for students and senior citizens. Advanced tickets can be purchased for $5 at Brady's Leap, located in the lobby of the Kent Stage, 175 E. Main Street in Kent.  For ticket information, please call the Kent Stage box office at 330-677-5005.

Jacqueline Gerber
Special to The Plain Dealer

At Saturday's opening performance of "Man of La Mancha," the action began before the show did.

On the dimly lit stage, a man strummed a guitar. Casual groupings of men and women, dressed in tatters, held muted conversations and silent fights. Above them, iron bars created a daunting perimeter.

Slowly, the players revealed the grim social order of a 16th-century prison.

That sense of understated detail transforms "La Mancha" from aging musical chestnut to an engaging night in the theater.

Fred Sternfeld's taut and vocally strong production gives full rein to the sentimentality, bravado and despair at the heart of the 1965 Tony Award-winning musical.

In a superb performance, Tom Fulton seamlessly transforms himself from the troubled Miguel de Cervantes to the author's creation, the dotty, plumpish knight errant, Don Quixote, who is charmingly out of step with his surroundings.

Tracee Patterson's earthy and beautifully sung Aldonza seems occasionally low-key, but she creates an effective tension when she resists Quixote's flowery attempts to ennoble her.

Contemporary choreography by Martin Cespedes adds edgy athleticism. From stage fighting and exotic dancing to a horse ballet, the dancing also illustrates in harrowing realism the brutality that befalls Aldonza.

The exceptional cast includes excellent performances by David Robeano as a disarmingly sweet Sancho Panza and R. Scott Posey as the padre.

The prisoners, a motley crew of thieves, murderers and malcontents, are major assets. They sing and act with precision. In their rags and leathers, with menacing scowls, they look like contenders on the professional wrestling tour.

From newfangled at email.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 From: newfangled at email.com (Newfangled Productions) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:02 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]NFP presents the worst play ever written Message-ID: <20021012131407.23660.qmail@email.com>

What are you waiting for?

 

Newfangled Productions is ushering in their first season with the worst play ever written - Samuel Beckett's seminal play "Waiting for Godot."

(We're not sure what "seminal" means, but we read that in a magazine somewhere.)

Described by Beckett himself: "Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes. It's awful."

Watch as:

* ACTORS talk to each other LIVE ON STAGE!

* One man walks around while another falls asleep RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!!

* Act Two IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS a brief intermission!!!

Tired of that same old theatre where plots develop, your heart is moved and THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPEN? Then come see WAITING FOR GODOT featuring these unfortunate actors (and can you believe they are actually getting paid to do this?):

Ryan McMullen as Estragon

Oliver Corrigan as Vladimir

Megan Elk as Pozzo

Jamie Russell as Lucky

Becca Borukhovsky as The Boy

Don't walk, RUN - to see the play about NOTHING and what so-called experts consider the most important play of the twentieth century.

Got nothing better to do? Here's the info:

From royberko at yahoo.com Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 From: royberko at yahoo.com (Roy Berko) Date: Sat Oct 12 09:34:10 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Reviews: La Mancha/Halle; Music/CPT; Silvers/Ensemble Message-ID: <20021012142538.65171.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> MAN OF LA MANCHA AT HALLE, I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME AT CPT, THE SILVERS AT ENSEMBLE Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) The Times Newspapers --Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times MAN OF LA MANCHA GETS A DREAM PRODUCTION AT HALLE In the dark days of the Spanish Inquisition, the poet Cervantes created Don Quixote, his alter ego, an errant-knight who dares "To Dream the Impossible Dream." Through the writing device of a play-within-a-play we watch as Quixote, aided by his sidekick, Sancho, and his "lady" Dulcinea, go forth on a quest "to fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star," and to see life, not as it is, but as it ought to be. During the play when questioned about his absurd valor Quixote replies, "I hope to add some measure of grace to the world." It is this premise that was used as the lynchpin by the musical?s script writer Dale Wasserman, musical writer Mitch Leigh and lyricist Joe Darion as the basis for the amazing musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. The musical is a challenging task for any theatre to undertake. The music is difficult to play and sing, the cast is large, a strong men?s chorus is a necessity, the lead male must be outstanding, and fine technical features are needed to enhance the cast. The Halle Theatre production, under the masterful directing hand of Fred Sternfeld, the musical direction of Larry Hartzell, and the choreography by Martin Cespedes, is outstanding! Keith Nagy?s lighting and scenic designs and Alison Hernan?s costumes amplify the happenings. The intimacy of the Halle Theatre aids the production. As in its original New York staging at the now-gone ANTA Theatre, the production is "right in your face." It makes the happenings intimate and involving. The Halle cast is generally strong. Tom Fulton leaves nothing to be desired in his performance as Cervantes/Don Quixote. His voice is powerful, his stage presence striking, his acting skills character-focused. David Robeano is delightful as Sancho, but his constant cuteness becomes wearing after a while. Tracee Patterson, who sings adequately well, fails to make a real harlot out of Eldonza at the start of the production, thus robbing the audience of the true depth of her transformation to the pure Dulcinea pictured by Don Quixote, a center theme of the story. R. Scott Posey displays an impressive singing range as The Padre. Scott Spence as the Barber and Kevin Joseph Kelly as the Governor/Innkeeper are also strong. The men?s chorus is vocally outstanding, as was the orchestra. MAN OF LAMANCHA is a well-thought out, impressive production. This, along with the stagings of PARADE at Beck Center and Cassidy, give further evidence that the musical theatre is alive and very well in Greater Cleveland?s local venues. Notwithstanding the excellence of this production one must ask, as the program notes do, "So what?s a theater with a mission of producing plays on Jewish themes doing opening its season with MAN OF LAMANCHA?" In spite of dramaturg Faye Sholiton?s well-written and impassioned attempt to explain, the question is not answered. Halle Theatre plays a role very different from other local theatres. It is subsidized by and is an important part of the Jewish community. It has an obligation to do what other local theatres do not do...present exclusively Jewish-themed plays. When they stray from that, they betray the mission of the theatre. MAN OF LAMANCHA runs at the Halle Theatre, 3505 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights, through October 27. For tickets, which are $24 to public and $20 call for JCC members, call 216-382-4000, extension 274. I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! A DELIGHT AT CPT The stage is dark. The music, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" fills the theatre. A vision appears, a tall, long legged, muscular, full-busted woman with flowing red hair appears. Varla Jean Merman is here! Well, in actuality it?s Jeffery Roberson portraying Varla Jean. Don?t get the idea that this is a drag show. It?s not. Jeffery is Varla Jean. He/she also does all her own singing. No tapes of Liza, Bette or Barbra here. As Varla states, "I?m too self absorbed for that." The show, which is audience-inclusive, is part adlib, part music, part video, part double entendre, and full-time fun! This "woman" can sing. "She" can sing even when shooting canned cheese whiz down her throat. This "woman" can bat her eyelids and convulse an audience. Her rewritten version of MY FAIR LADY?S "Why Can?t the English" as a rap song is clever. Her Yodeling Weiner ventriloquism act convulses. The video of her attendance at her prom was delightful. Her final goodbye, complete with a plea to the audience to buy her c.d., left the audience laughing. Go to the show expecting the outrageous and you?ll go with the right attitude. Do go, you?ll be enraptured. VARLA JEAN MERMAN?S I?VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME! runs at the Cleveland Public Theatre until October 20. For tickets, which range from $15 to $20, call 216-631-2727. For information go online to www.cptonline.org. THE SILVERS SHINE AT ENSEMBLE Dorothy and Reuben Silver are the crown jewels of Cleveland theatre. They recently donated their services for a series of benefit performances to raise funds for Ensemble Theatre. Their program LAUGHTER IN THREE LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, YIDDISH AND "YINGLISH" delighted the audience. It was a unique and entertaining evening of reading by the master storytellers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(Name to be determined at first meeting) WE ARE INVITING EVERYONE involved with film and theater to attend the first meeting of the Northern Ohio Visual Arts Association, in order to establish a non-profit organization to further visual arts in Northern Ohio. Everyone involved in the Film and Theater industry is welcome. Including Actors, Film Makers, Producers, Directors, Writers and all Crew Members. Be there for our first meeting, MONDAY OCTOBER 21ST at 7:30PM. The location will be... North Coast Central Casting 4913 Storer Ave. Cleveland, OH 44102 (216) 651-5441. What are the reasons for this organization you ask? 1. The Ohio Film Commission has closed down! 2. Cleveland Film Makers discontinued! 3. To establish a networking system for growth in visual arts! 4. No unity between Film & Theater! 5. To develop unity in a city, divided! THIS ASSOCIATION WILL BE OPEN TO ALL AND RUN AS A DEMOCRACY. Nominations, Elections, Board of Directors, Interim President and so forth will be the agenda for the first meeting. Representatives to the board of directors will include Interim President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Actors Rep, Extras Rep, Directors Rep, Producers Rep, Writers Rep, Crew Rep, Media Rep, Web Site Developer(s), and any other representatives deemed necessary at the first meeting. Meeting Agenda 7:30 to 8:00 PM - Meet & greet! 8:00 to 9:00 PM - Formation & organization meeting 9:00 PM - Nominations and election of officers. After the meeting will be the showing of the short film "We Have Your Daughter" by Bill Johns, Cinevid Productions. I think this is a worthwhile idea and it seems very sound, I support the concept. For myself, however, I know I cannot be a part because I now live in New York, but I will be moving back to Cleveland late summer, so it'd be nice to see this group get off the ground........................ Erik Van Gunten Thanks for the invite on the 21st. I would love to serve on the board or whatever is needed...........................Linda Winters (National Casting Director) As for the NOVA meeting (hey, there's your name), film and theater communities are separated everywhere, not just this state or region. It's sad really. I'd be glad to help out since I've worked in both, though obviously more extensively in film and video. I like your adherence to the importance of structure. I'll put my two cents in........................ Christopher Young I would definitely be into the idea of having such an organization in town.

Susana and Tom Evert's Dance Theatre introduced the enthusiastic crowd to "magic realism" through the grace, imagination and skill of the dancers and choreography. The concert was the first in a series of events for National Hispanic Heritage Month. Working with minimal sets didn't stop the troupe from making a rain forest, a village, a cemetery and a shrine seem perfectly realized as a backdrop for the spirited and talented dancers who did everything right when casting their spell. There was "cute" with children Josh Colon and Alexis Generette Floyd dancing with unaffected grace as village youngsters. There was "funny" with the dancers suddenly turning into a tribe of chattering monkeys ( scratching fleas and all ). There was "sexy" with the sizzling hot pas de deux danced by the Everts. Above all, there was soulfulness and poetry-evidenced most poignantly in the maiden's dance with Death ( a perfectly convincing figure as portrayed by character dancer Tom Evert as a 12-foot tall skeleton in a serape) reminding us of the Mexican holiday honoring those who have passed away, "The Day of the Dead". There was nothing dead about this life-affirming performance by one of the area's most accomplished and distinguished dance ensembles. ~~~ "AMAZINGLY INVENTIVE" THE NEW YORK TIMES Please, come and experience ALMA DE LA TIERRA in Cleveland Oct 18, 19 at 8pm Oct 20 at 2pm TRI-C Metropolitan Campus Theater East 30th and Woodland Security and Parking Available 24 HRS !!

Margene Rannigan Richard............. Barry Wakser SYNOPSIS: The scene is an all-night diner in a sleepy southwestern town, the time early Sunday morning when the night attendant, young Stephen (Red) Ryder, is about to turn over his duties to his daytime counterpart, Angel. Her friend Lyle, who runs the filling station and motel across the road, stops by for breakfast followed by an affluent young couple en route to New Orleans. With the arrival of another couple, Teddy and Cheryl, the existing calm quickly vanishes. Their car, in which they are smuggling marijuana into California, has broken down, and while they wait for it to be repaired, Teddy begins to taunt and then bully the others in the diner. With black, sardonic humor he gets at each in turn, stripping away their pretensions and exposing their innermost secrets and fears. They are soon his helpless victims, too terrified to resist as he binds and robs them before heading off down the highway. In the end the others, after freeing themselves, realize that they have come through their ordeal without serious harm - at least physically. But for each a searing moment of truth has been faced and, in a deeper sense, they know that they have been changed more than they would have the desire, or perhaps the courage, to admit.

Long considered one of the greatest examples of 20th Century farce, BLACK COMEDY was widely admired by audiences and critics alike when first produced by the British National Theatre in 1965. It uses wit, imagination and broad, physical humor to get its audiences laughing. A cross between a comedy of manners and Benny Hill. Peter Shaffer wrote masterpieces such as Equus, Amadeus, The Royal Hunt of the Sun, and Lettice and Lovage. In BLACK COMEDY, Peter Shaffer makes use of mistaken identity and pratfalls, as well as the Chinese Theatre device of light-dark reversal. Darkness, caused by a blown fuse, is seen in the theatre as a brilliantly illuminated room in which characters are blindly groping around. The light-dark device never wears thin, because Shaffer shrewdly fills the story with eight wonderfully defined characters. The 1965 premiere featured Albert Finney, Derek Jacobi and Maggie Smith under the direction of John Dexter. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
