[NEohioPAL] "Self-Portraits" (9/4): OddyFest's Sophomore Year Kicks Off in Style!

[Oddy Festival]

Please consider joining OddyFest for the first show of its second year, *
"Self-Portraits*," a collection of autobiographical theatre and music works,
which premieres *next Friday, September 4th, at 7:15 p.m. at our new venue,
the Brody Nelson Room of the Cleveland Heights Library (2345 Lee Road*).
Read on below for details.

For year two, we're taking into account popular taste, by moving to Friday
nights (that mythical "weekend" that people are so crazy about) and by
inviting Oddy-ence to experience the program *FREE OF CHARGE* (in response
to the fact that people don't like to pay money).  OddyFest merchandise
(T's, albums, books) continues to be on sale, though, if that five-dollar
bill is really burning a hole in your pockets.

Hope to see you next Friday at 7:15 for the first free show!

*Self-Portraits: OddyFest #13*

* *

*Kicking off its second year and its first set of free Friday shows at the
Clev. Hts. Library, The Oddy Festival takes a good hard look in the mirror
to investigate artists investigating themselves:*

* *

*Songs by Allison Bencar*

* *

Guest musician Ms. Bencar kicks off the set with

some acoustic autobiographical tune-age.



*McInjun by Cat R. Kenney (reading)*

* *

Matt Greenfield plays a 15-year-old male avatar of Cat named Cat,

a geeky youth of mixed Indian-Irish descent who finds himself stranded

at the Playhouse and must make a late-nite trek back home to the West Side.



*The Normal Engels by Matt Greenfield (reading)*

* *

The Greenfield Family plays themselves in this delightfully prosaic look at
Jewish-American family life on a Shabbat evening.



Writing of which...

*NOW ON THE ODD **FRIDAYS**!*

*September 4 / September 18*

* *

*Doors Open at 7:15 *

* *

*BRODY-NELSON ROOM*

*of the Cleveland Heights Library, Lee Road Branch*

*(2345 Lee Road, just next to the stairs)*

* *

*FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!*

* *

*(Though, if you really want to give money to OddyFest,*

*Oddy T’s, CD’s, and books will be available)*
