Artistic Director Raymond Bobgan is proud to present Free Family Theatre in the
Parks! The teens of the Student Theatre Enrichment Program (STEP) present <i>Eye,
Mind, Heart</i>, an original play inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's <i>The
Snow Queen</i>. The 2009 STEP project will open on Thursday, July 30th at
Herman Park in the Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood before touring to a dozen
other parks throughout the city of Cleveland through August 9th.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Utilizing <i>The
Snow Queen</i> as a starting point, STEP's ensemble of inner-city teens reveal
their own hopes, fears, strengths and vulnerabilities. This family-friendly
performance is a powerful love story that examines humanity's struggle for
compassion and connection in a materialistic and cut-throat world, and is
super-charged with a cappella singing, dance and non-stop action. <i>Eye, Mind,
Heart</i> is about finding one's path to a joyful life and highlights the power
and creativity of Cleveland's youth. This original work will be presented free
of charge at parks throughout the city of Cleveland from July 30 - August 9.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
