ANNOUNCING THE CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM 2015 SEASON

Starting Feb 12 and running through Dec 19, convergence-continuum will
present a jam-packed season of innovative, cutting-edge theatre at the
intimate Liminis theater in Cleveland's historic Tremont neighborhood.

SPECIAL PRE-SEASON EVENT:  NEOMFA PLAYWRIGHTS FESTIVAL – Feb 12-21
one new full-length play and two new one-act plays by three different
local MFA playwrights. Produced in collaboration with the Northeast Ohio
Master of Fine Arts (NEOMFA) in Creative Writing and Cleveland State
University.

SERIES ONE: TAKING RISKS. In this three-play series the styles vary
significantly, but the common thread is that in each play the characters
purposefully take action on extreme, risky choices, either to greatly
rewarding or disastrous results. The plays themselves are also all edgy,
risky choices in terms of subject matter, form and presentation style. All
three plays will be Ohio premieres.

ISAAC’S EYE  by Lucas Hnath - quirky, funky send-up of historical dramas
March 20-April 11 - Directed by Clyde Simon

WOLVES  by Steve Yockey - sharp, darkly funny urban fairy tale

THE TRAIN PLAY, or The Reckless Ruthless Brutal Charge of It by Liz Duffy
Adams  - comic-poetic collision course with time, history and a
supernatural climax – June 26-July 18 - Directed by Clyde Simon

SERIES TWO: MAKING IT UP AS YOU GO. The  plays of the series take
provocative, thoughtful and amusing looks at the frequently risky choices
and the resulting adjustments that people make in fashioning their lives
and relationships.
