[NEohioPAL] Final weekend! HARM'S WAY, a dark comedy by Mac Wellman

[convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL]

DARK, HUMOROUS & STRANGE:  “HARM'S WAY” BY MAC WELLMAN
FINAL WEEKEND THIS THURS-SAT AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM

"There is more cussin' and shootin' and killin' than a Quentin
Tarantino movie....By the way, it's a comedy"  (Mark Horning, Talkin'
Broadway [1])

"...we are plunged into the distorted world of playwright Mac Wellman,
a world where common aspects of our lives – violence, con games,
dead Presidents – appear as if reflected in a fun house mirror. And
then you realize maybe this view isn't so distorted after all." 
(Christine Howey, Rave and Pan [2])

Harm’s Way, the darkly humorous fable of an angry man on a rampage
through a fantastical wilderness, follows the exploits of very angry
Santouche as he tries to make sense of  law and order in a nation of
other very angry people.  Filled with Wild West and circus sideshow
imagery, the action doesn’t take place in any specific time or
place. But all the characters drink from the same poisoned well, which
is definitely American. It might be anytime in the last 70 years, or
even possibly in the next.

Harm’s Way is directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic
Director, Clyde Simon, and features actors Wesley Allen, Robert
Branch, Gideon Lorete, Joseph Milan, Michael Regnier, Beau Reinker,
Brian Westerley, Hillary Wheelock, Carrie Williams and Monica
Zach.    This is the seventh Mac Wellman play presented by
convergence-continuum, having previously produced Sincerity Forever, 7
Blowjobs, Cleveland, Whirligig, A Murder of Crows and The Hyacinth
Macaw.

Harm’s Way has its final three performances this Thu-Sat at 8 pm at
convergence-continuum’s Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland
44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood.

Tickets are $20 general admission, $15 seniors (65+), $10 students.
