They don't know from show to show if there will be a next. It is heart-breaking.</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font>I am asking you, to please, come see this show.

going.</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font>Their shows are wonderful, the staff is friendly, it is absolutely charming. </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font>The location. If you have been to Little Italy it is just a few blocks away. When you come down Mayfield to Euclid and head East it is on the right just a few blocks at the corner of Windemere and Euclid Ave. And there is a parking lot in the back by the entrance. </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font>I honestly believe if you would come out and try this charming theater you would be pleasantly surprised. <span style="font-weight: bold;">But please don't wait.

I have been blessed with a hard working and talented cast that make our rehearsals an absolute delight.
They entertain me daily. And all housed in a cozy theater, previously a church, with dedicated staff who wish only to please their patrons and warm our hearts. </span></div><div class="yiv1517166558MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">This community theater is exactly what its title says. The staff here is mostly on a volunteer basis. They bring things from everywhere, their homes, their friend's homes, and the lobby and yes the prop room, any place they can to create the best set possible on a minimal budget. Some will purchase things with their own funds. It's a community effort to put up a show here. And I feel like it is Christmas everyday when I show up for rehearsals to find all the new developments and the smiles on all the faces. </span></div><div class="yiv1517166558MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px; color:

It is only their passion that keeps it going from one show to the next. I am so thankful to have had this experience with this cast and this theater. </span></div><div class="yiv1517166558MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">I invite all of you to come out and experience one of Cleveland's treasures and a great group of people.
