	CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM PRESENTS _THE OLDEST PROFESSION _BY PAULA VOGEL

	OPENING FRIDAY, MARCH 23 AT THE LIMINIS THEATER

	 

	Convergence-continuum presents the Cleveland premiere of _THE OLDEST
PROFESSION _by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Paula Vogel.  It’s
1981, the year in which Ronald Reagan is about to enter the White
House, and five ageing hookers of quite advanced years are faced with
a diminishing clientele, increased competition for their niche market
and aching joints. The motley crew of ladies – who ply their trade
on New York’s Upper West Side -- have been colleagues for decades. 
With wit, compassion, humor and some really naughty songs, they tell
it like it is as they struggle to find and learn new tricks and fight
to stay “in the Life” in an era of trickle-down economics.
