MR. MARMALADE CAUSES LAUGH-OUT-LOUD MAYHEM AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM

MR. MARMALADE by Noah Haidle is a wild romp of a savage dark comedy
about what it takes to grow up in these difficult times. Lucy is a
four-year old girl with a very active imagination. Unfortunately her
imaginary best friend, Mr. Marmalade, doesn’t have much time for her.
What with his high pressure corporate job, he can barely pencil her
in for a play date anymore. But the inventive Lucy is determined to
make Mr. M play house, even if it causes unexpected bizarre results
and unleashes hilarious mayhem among her very strange collection of
both real and imagined family and friends.

Company member Arthur Grothe, director of last year’s convergence-
continuum hit production of Act a Lady, returns to the helm for
Haidle’s alternately hilarious and heartbreaking satiric twisted
fantasy.  The ensemble cast includes convergence-continuum regulars
Lucy Bredeson-Smith, Geoffrey Hoffman, Tom Kondilas, Wes Shofner,
Lauren B. Smith, Teresa McDonaugh and Stuart Hoffman.

MR. MARMALADE runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm through
May 3, at the Liminis, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland, OH 44113 in the
Tremont neighborhood.  Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for
students and seniors (65+).  For reservations and information call
