2.  Mr. Thespian, aka, Peter Lawson Jones, recently sent the promo re: "A Carol For Cleveland."  See email, below and Attached flyer for details.  Hope to see you there!  
From Peter . . . 
 "Are you ready for a good holiday story?  Well, I'll give ya' one - "A Carol for Cleveland," which runs from November 30th through December 23rd at the Cleveland Play House.  Oh, come all ye faithful, and enjoy the world premiere of a great new play with a decidedly Cleveland flavor.  Not only is the play adapted by a Clevelander (Eric Coble) from a novella penned by a Clevelander (Les Roberts) but it takes place here as well.  (By the way, Roberts is an award-winning novelist, and Coble, a member of the Cleveland Heights-University Heights School Board, has not only garnered his share of acclaim but has a play headed to Broadway as well).  

Did I neglect to mention that yours truly is a member of the cast, which includes - "hisself" excepted - some of the finest acting talent not only from this area but from New Yawk as well?  

And the play, which will be performed in the breathtakingly renovated Allen Theatre in Playhouse Square, is beautifully directed by Laura Kepley, CPH's Associate Artistic Director.    It's a truly heart-warming story that's perfect for the entire family.   
If you are interested in experiencing a little of the wonder of the season with "A Carol for Cleveland," save $10 per adult ticket by logging on to clevelandplayhouse.com/partners, and using the promotion code FAM.  You can also order via phone by calling 216.241.6000 or in person at the State Theatre ticket office.
