CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM PRESENTS THE WORLD PREMIERE OF APORKALYPSE!
BY CHRISTOPHER JOHNSTON, NOW ONSTAGE AT THE LIMINIS

convergence-continuum concludes its 2010 Season at the Liminis theatre
with the world premiere of APORKALYPSE! – our not-for-the-kiddies holiday
show by Cleveland playwright and con-con company member Chris Johnston.

APORKALYPSE! is set in the mountain country of North Carolina where Pork
Corp  has bought out nearly all the farms in the area and set up factory
farming of hogs.  The last hold-out is Pappaw and Mammaw’s family pig farm
where they, and their PTSD-afflicted, Gulf War vet son Karol, are under
siege, surrounded by the stench of Pork Corp’s operations. Into this mess
comes son JP, AWOL from duty in Iraq, just in time for Christmas. The
stress of cabin fever reigns and leads to some wild shenanigans when the
family is visited by Karol’s sexy social worker, devious Pork Corp
executives, and accordion-toting carolers (not to mention, an apparition
of a Persian love goddess).

APORKALYPSE! runs at 8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and 7 pm
Sundays through Dec. 19 at the Liminis, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland
44113. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for students and seniors
(65+).  Reservations and information at 216-687-0074 and
http://www.convergence-continuum.org (where you'll find some pix from the
show, too!)

APORKALYPSE! is directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic Director,
Clyde Simon, and features actors Michael Regnier, Marcia Mandell, Geoffrey
Hoffman, Scott Gorbach, Sarah Kunchik, Tom Kondilas and actor/musicians
sade wolfkitten and Joe Milan.
