MilkMilkLemonade:
THIS FRIDAY'S OPENING-NIGHT PERFORMANCE IS NOW SOLD OUT.
TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE FOR SATURDAY.

convergence-continuum presents the Ohio premiere of MilkMilkLemonade by
Joshua Conkel, an outrageous, absurd and poignant comedy. 
MilkMilkLemonade tells the tale of Emory, an effeminate, fifth-grade farm
boy whose only friend is a giant depressed chicken named Linda.  His
grandmother Nanna, who is aghast that her grandson might be a homosexual,
orders him to stop playing with dolls and choreographing dance routines,
and spend more time with the hyper-masculine Elliot, whose interests
include throwing balls, beating up Emory and setting things on fire.

What Nanna doesn’t know is that bully-boy neighbor Elliot also enjoys
playing an extremely detailed version of house with Emory, one that
focuses less on homemaking and more on ennui and imaginings of prom (and
some other stuff Nanna would definitely not approve of).  A children's play
definitely not for children, MilkMilkLemonade takes a humorous look at
gender, identity, and the need to dream up a world where you can be who
you are.    (Note: All children and animate poultry are played by adults.)

MilkMilkLemonade is directed by converge-continuum company member Cory
Molner and features actors Zac Hudak, Brian Devers, Marcia Mandell, Sarah
Kunchik and Lisa Wiley.

MilkMilkLemonade opens this Friday, August 17 and runs at 8 p.m.
Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through September 8 at the Liminis, 2438
Scranton Rd., Cleveland, OH 44113.  Tickets are $15 general admission, $12
for seniors and $10 for students.  For reservations and information visit
