Don't WAIT! until Friday to reserve your tickets to see this sweet comedy
from TITLEWave theatre and Cleveland Public Theatre!  Opening September 26:

Julie Jensen's WAIT!
A poignant New Comedy
Directed By Gregory Vovos
FEATURING
Meg Chamberlain, Jennifer Clifford, Randy Rollison & everyone's favorite
vixen Marni Task
Wendy Burger (JenniferClifford) searches for her identity as she gets acting
tips from Floating Pinata Head (Meg Chamberlain), spiritual challenges from
the Greeks, and helps the ever-flamboyant Lu (Randy Rollison) restore the
old theatre to its former glory. A small town never seemed so big,
especially for a girl with one eye on her alcoholic father and the other on
the striking O Vixen My Vixen (Marni Task).
Witness the moment between the question and the answer, the WAIT! September
26-October 11, Thurs-Sat at 8:00, Sunday at 3:00 at the Cleveland Public
Theatre, 6415 Detroit Ave.
