*The “Medina County Variety Show” will light up the night of November 8 *

       Director Andrew Knode will be joined by his “Entertainment Pix”
co-host Gary Kiser  in introducing the Variety Show’s performers to the
excitement and challenge of a live TV production.  This will be the first
live stage show for the TV production company that broadcasts regularly on
local cable channels.  Audience members also can look forward to a new
experience as they watch the TV style of the event. The production will be
staged for the Medina County Arts Council’s 2015 fall fundraiser, titled*“The
Medina County Variety Show,” *on Sunday, November 8, at 7 p.m. at the
Haddad Theater, in Broadway Hall in Medina.
      Tickets for the Variety Show are being sold at Buehler’s stores in
Brunswick, Wadsworth, and Medina, and at The Medina County Convention and
Visitors Bureau on Medina Square.  They can also be purchased on line at
www.medinacountyartscouncil.org.  In addition, tickets may be purchased for
a special 2 p.m. show on the same day. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5
for seniors and students 12 and under.  Committee members and Arts Council
trustees want to make the Showcase available to many, so ticket prices are
kept in an affordable range.  According to a committee spokesperson, “In
response to the growth of Medina County, the organization’s board of
trustees recognizes the need to provide funds for grants that encourage and
support growing and needed local arts activities, and our committee
appreciates the work to help us by the local TV staff led by Knode and
Kiser.“
     Extra support for the event comes from local businesses and
individuals through program ads, patron contributions, and in-kind
donations.  Money raised will go toward the current efforts of the Council
to increase funding for grants to county non-profit arts organizations,
schools, and special arts activities in the county.
     Experienced and popular performers will include: Jim Gill,  James and
Heather Kovach, the Medina Centre for Dance Art, Denny Miller and others.
The script has been written by Kiser and Knode based on a story by Karl
Kiser and Martin Carlton.  The Stage Manager and Assistant Director is John
Haller.
     The production is promoted by the Arts Council’s fundraiser Steering
Committee:  Linda Ingram, Committee Chair;  Cindy Allman, Marketing Chair; and
Roger Smalley, Ticket Chair. Working with the staff and crew as House
Managers are trustees Susan Ungham and Pat Chaloupek.
      The theater stage is in the County Administration Building at 144 N.
Broadway in Medina, with free parking in the lot behind the building where
the entrance to the auditorium is located. For additional information go to
www.medindcountyartscouncil.org  or call 330-722-5502 during business
