Please consider joining OddyFest this *Friday (10/16) at 7:15 p.m. at the
Brody-Nelson Meeting Room of the Cleveland Heights Library (2345 Lee

"OCTOBER
REVOLUTIONS," featuring "Trotsky" by Matt Greenfield and "Gandhi & Hitler"
by Michael Oatman, with some Russian songs (in Russian) thrown in there for
the heck of it.  Not to dust off my own shoulder here, but Oddy-ences
on Oct. 2nd were truly floored by the historical drama and intensity of
these shows.  The program is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC and variegated
OddyMerch will be available before/after the show, should you care to
patronize our big box o' OddyStuff.  Hope to see you there!  Read on for
details:
*October Revolutions: OddyFest #14*

* *

*Oddy’s October set of plays takes a look at three idealistic early
twentieth-century men who wanted to change the world, and did change it (and
themselves) in ways that they could never have anticipated...*

* *

*Russian songs by Cat R. Kenney & Joe Barone*

* *

In honor of “Trotsky,” OddyFest music director Joe Barone plays a few
original tunes sung in Russian and written by Cat Kenney.



*“Trotsky” by Matt Greenfield*

* *

The greatest trick this Russian revolutionary pulled was not winning the
civil war, but creating a self called “Leon Trotsky” from his humble origins
as Lev Bronstein, sacrificing family and identity for the sake of
monomaniacal idealism.



*“Gandhi and Hitler” by Michael Oatman*

* *

A meditation on good, evil, and rock-n-roll: Adolf and Mahatma chat it up in
Purgatory, discussing their respective legacies in history while observing a
Slipknot concert.



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

*Show starts at 7:15 *
