Jacques Brel and the Men Who Saved PlayhouseSquare 
Saturday, September 14, 2013 
Free Event! 

Join On the Road with Ohioana and the Ohio Center for the Book at Cleveland Public Library for this exciting event. 

Drama, rescue, restoration – you’ll find it all at PlayhouseSquare, the largest performing arts center in the country outside New York City and the world’s largest theater restoration project. Get a behind-the-scenes tour with author Jeannie Emser Schultz. 

Meet the celebrity guests: 

· Ray Shepardson , who received a 2013 Governor’s Award for the Arts in Ohio for his theater restoration efforts around the country that began in 1970 at PlayhouseSquare. 

· Joe Garry , who directed the stellar production of Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris 

Following the morning at PlayhouseSquare, we move to the Cleveland Public Library for refreshments and a presentation of WVIZ’s acclaimed documentary, Staging Success: The PlayhouseSquare Story , produced in celebration of the center’s 90th birthday. Staging Success: The PlayhouseSquare Story is a WVIZ/PBS ideastream® production in collaboration with Think Media Studios made possible by the Cleveland Foundation and in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
