	OPENING THIS COMING FRIDAY, MARCH 29 AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM

	THE PRIDE BY ALEXI KAYE CAMPBELL

	DIRECTED BY JONATHAN WILHELM

	  

	Convergence-continuum presents the OHIO PREMIERE of _The Pride _by
Alexi Kaye Campbell, running March 29 – April 20._  
_The time-bending play, the first in con-con’s 2019 Star-Crossed
Season, interweaves the love stories of two similar couples separated
by fifty years, each with very different outcomes.

	  

	_The Pride 
_is a collage portrait of two parallel love stories, in 1958 and 2008,
between two different couples, both named Phillip and Oliver.  
In 1958 Phillip, who is married to Sylvia, has an illicit affair with
Oliver, which would have been considered a criminal offense if it were
ever discovered. In 2008 a different Phillip and Oliver have the
freedom to conduct their relationship in the open. But do they
appreciate the freedom to be who they are - or even know what to do
with that freedom?  
One play. Two stories. Three characters interweaving in time.
