[NEohioPAL] WordStage Literary Concerts presents "At Wit's End - The Algonquin Round Table"

[Tim Tavcar]

WordStage Literary Concerts opens its Fall series of performances on
Saturday, September 23 at 7: 00 p.m. in the Wright Chapel of the Lakewood
Presbyterian Church, 14502 Detroit Avenue in Lakewood, OH with a literary
celebration of four core members of the infamous Algonquin Hotel Round
Table from 1919 to 1929.
Join Dorothy Parker, Alexander Woollcott, Edna Ferber and Robert Benchley
as they trade witty barbs, share scintillating conversation and challenge
each other via a public reading of their individual short stories as they
while away a rainy afternoon at their favorite rendezvous, Manhattan’s
famous and storied Algonquin Hotel Dining Room.  Their razor-sharp wits,
and clever literary creations will be enhanced by solo piano works of
George Gershwin, a favorite guest artist at the “Algonks” gatherings.
The cast features Agnes Herrmann as Dorothy Parker, Paul Slimak as Robert
Benchley, Leslie Stager as Edna Ferber and Tim Tavcar as Alexander
Woollcott.  Gershwin’s music will be performed by renowned Cleveland area
pianist, Patrick Wickliffe.
Tickets are $20 – Adult - $15 Senior – and $10 – for Students, LPC Choir
members and the Rainbow Pioneers Group.  Cash or Check only at the door,
please.
For reservations and more information, please contact Artistic Director Tim
Tavcar at 440-857-0717.
