CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM OPENS 'LA TURISTA' BY SAM SHEPARD
AT THE LIMINIS THIS FRIDAY, AUGUST 27

If the dog days of summer have got you down and you're overwhelmed by
stress on the job, you may just need to take a vacation.

Salem and Kent have decided to do just that. The problem is, they end up
battling sunburn and a nasty case of the trots during their Mexican
getaway. To make matters worse, their retreat is invaded by a local
shoeshine boy with an abundance of attitude. Who is he? What does he want?
Will Salem and Kent find a cure for their sickness? Is bloodletting the
only answer?

This Friday, August 27, convergence-continuum will be your tour guide as
they explore the joys of modern medicine and ritual sacrifice in Sam
Shepard’s LA TURISTA, directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic
Director Clyde Simon and featuring an ensemble cast that includes Cliff
Bailey, Jovana Batkovic, Brian Breth, Arthur Grothe, Geoffrey Hoffman, and
Brin Metzendorf.

La Turista opens Friday, August 27 and runs Thursdays, Fridays, and
Saturdays through September 25 at The Liminis, 2438 Scranton Rd. in
Cleveland's historic Tremont neighborhood. All performances begin at 8 pm.
Tickets are $12 for general admission and $9 for students and seniors.
Seating for this production is limited. For information and reservations,
