<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"> Hello
everyone!</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="2">As we head into our <a
href="http://www.cvlt.org/81stSeason/">81st Season</a>,
we reflect on an extremely successful 80th! Thank you to
everyone who attended a performance, purchased a brick,
became a member or subscriber, or joined us for a
fundraiser or benefit over the past year. We deeply
appreciate it.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="2">CVLT's outreach program, <i><a
href="http://www.cvlt.org/aoy.php">Accent on Youth
(AOY)</a></i>, begins this school year with a bang,
presenting social and relationship plays featuring
student actors. A play serving 'Safe Routes to Schools'
will be offered September 3 at Chagrin Falls
Intermediate School, with programs to follow at Orange
and Kenston early this fall. Mayfield, Solon and West
Geauga schools will also be served by this initiative,
which is sponsored by the <a
href="http://www.ridgecliff.org">Ridgecliff Foundation</a>.
Bullying remains a key theme for most AOY presentations.</font>
</p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="2"><i>The Dixie Swim Club</i> which took top
honors in the Ohio Community Theater Association's
Northeast Ohio Regional event, will be appearing in the
<a
href="http://www.ohiocommunitytheatre.org/stateconference.shtml">OCTA
State Finals</a> on September 5 in Perrysburg, OH.
Barbara Rhoades directs Jackie Cassara, Kate Tonti,
Chris White, Jenny Barrett, and Denise Bernstein in this
award-winning (and boxoffice-busting) comedy about the
life-long friendship between members of a college swim
team.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="2">Our new season kicks off with the annual <i><a
href="http://cvlt.org/81stSeason/murderbythefalls.php">Murder by the
Falls</a></i> fund-raising mystery evening on
September 10 and 11, with our first <a
href="http://cvlt.org/81stSeason/broadway.php">Chagrin
Falls Studio Orchestra concert</a> of the year
following closely behind. Although individual tickets to
our <a href="http://cvlt.org/81stSeason">upcoming
season</a> are now on sale, there's still time to
become a season subscriber - you'll save up to 30% off
of CVLT's already low main stage ticket prices. And if
the <a href="http://cvlt.org/youth/">Youth Theatre</a>
is your thing, registration for fall sessions is now
open.</font></p>
