THE PLAY: A world premiere by one of Cleveland's most noted playwrights, <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Alice Seed </span></i>is a moving and exceptional
tale of loss and the powerful desire to regain the past and hold on to our most
cherished ones. Part horror story, part family drama, <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Alice Seed</span></i> is pure gothic Americana
reminiscent of Edgar Allan Poe, the Twilight Zone and the Coen Brothers'
movies. <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Alice Seed</span></i> will be
onstage in the Gordon Square Theatre from March 19<sup>th</sup> - April 4<sup>th</sup>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
