<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Only two weeks remain to catch Terrence McNally's
Tony-winning comic drama, <STRONG>"Love! Valour! Compassion!"</STRONG> on stage
now at <STRONG>Weathervane Playhouse </STRONG>in Akron.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Presented in the Playhouse's intimate, 48-seat John L.
Dietz Theater, the show examines one pivotal summer’s ups and downs for a close
yet fragile group of friends. Eight gay men escape the heat of New York City and
retreat two hours north to the remote country home of a celebrated
choreographer/dancer.
<P>Over the course of three summer-holiday weekends, the men hash out their
fears, resentments and their passions. At turns witty, rueful and wry, McNally’s
heartfelt drama reveals how a common tie can forge the fiercest and most loyal
of friendships.</P>
<P>Catch a behind-the-scenes video "sneak peak" of the show here: <A
