What's up with our freaky obsession with people who do stupid, outrageous
or awful things, and turning them into media sensations?  That's what
we're taking a searingly comic and wickedly dark look at with VALPARAISO
by Don DeLillo, now on stage at convergence-continuum.

Michael Majeski boards a plane on a routine business trip to Valparaiso,
Indiana, but through a succession of blunders ends up in Valparaiso,
Chile.    In a series of intense and often surreal press, radio and TV news
interviews, he tries to establish an identity as he moves from being a
humorous media curiosity to a national media celebrity, until he reaches
the big-time: the tell-all daytime talk show!  Here nothing remains
unseen, and personal secrets, no matter how intimate, are fair game.

Valparaiso runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm through Apr. 16
at the Liminis, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland, OH 44113 in the historic
Tremont neighborhood.  Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for seniors
(65+) and $10 for students.
