CPT now accepting applications for the 2015/2016 Nord Playwright Fellowship
by Caitlin Lewins via NEohioPAL 13 May '15

13 May '15

CPT's Nord Playwright Fellowship Application Deadline: June 1st, 2015 CPT's Nord Playwright Fellowship is a year-long program for a local emerging playwright supported by the Nord Family Foundation. CPT initiated this program to provide greater support to the region's playwright community and to nurture active artists. Up to two residencies may be awarded in 2015, which includes a $2,000 stipend for the playwright, development support and a workshop production. Please note that CPT is investing over $15,000 in staff time, support and direct costs associated with the residency. Based on writing samples and one complete play, we will select a playwright with extraordinary potential. This resident artist will be given space at the theatre to write, create and rehearse work. Additionally, the program provides access to CPT's artistic staff and is eligible for the theatre's development programming. The residency is also an opportunity to be on site at CPT over the course of the year, interacting with and learning from designers, actors, directors and other writers. Eligibility * Applicant must be a resident of Northeast Ohio. * Applicant cannot be a Full-Time Student * Applicant must have significant available time to work on major artistic projects. Rehearsals and other commitments are typically in the evenings and on weekends. The obligations of this fellowship will make it difficult to have outside artistic projects. Selection Criteria We are not looking for the most accomplished playwright, rather an early-career playwright, someone who has demonstrated ability and extraordinary potential, but is still defining their voice as a playwright. This program is open to playwrights who work in a variety of processes including directing/devising playwrights and conventional writers of scripts. We want to have the largest impact on the community as possible, so we are looking for a playwright who is at the "right time" in his/her growth to most benefit from the residency. We are looking for someone who is hungry for experiences as a playwright and also is enthusiastic about being an active member of our community at CPT. Applications will be reviewed by CPT's artistic staff and collaborators. The first round of reading will be facilitated blind - without applicants' names. During round one, only "Writing Sample A" will be read. This sample must include a script and should be the applicant's best and most complete work. For playwrights whose work extends beyond the page, video samples will be allowed in addition to the script. Rounds two and three will be conducted with the applicant's name attached. "Writing Sample B", will be reviewed by the panel if selected to move on to rounds two and three. Interviews will be held with the finalists. Applying for the Residency If you would like to be considered for the 2015-2016 Nord Playwright Residency, please follow the application instructions below, and submit electronically to New Play Associate Caitlin Lewins (clewins(a)cptonline.org<mailto:clewins@cptonline.org>).

TrueNorth Cultural Arts in partnership with Lorain County Metro Parks is proud to announce... THE GLASS MENAGERIE By Tennessee Williams Directed by Fred Sternfeld "The characters pulse with honest, well-earned humanity and it is an untrammeled pleasure to watch these four actors negotiate the tiny, claustrophobic world of the Wingfields."

His arrival sends shockwaves through the family, and causes cracks to form in the delicate fantasies that have kept them going.

Now onstage - WOLVES, a gleefully gory urban fairy tale for adults at convergence-continuum
by convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL 13 May '15

13 May '15

NOW ONSTAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM: "WOLVES" -- A PREDATORY URBAN FAIRY TALE FOR ADULTS. THIS MODERN RE-IMAGINING OF RED RIDING HOOD IN THE BIG BAD CITY IS DARKLY COMIC AND, LIKE THOSE FAIRY TALES OF OLD, GLEEFULLY GORY. WOLVES takes place during a long and eventful night at the apartment of Ben and Jack. Ben has recently moved from a small town to the big city, where he develops a full-blown paranoia about the place where he lives, which he thinks of as the deep, dark forest, and has an outrageous fear of the wolves that prowl it. To taunt the clingy, jealous Ben, Jack brings home a wolf from a bar one night. Though a series of misunderstandings, things turn violent (an axe is involved) and its up to the sardonic female narrator to guide us through to the end of this postmodern fracturing of the Red Riding Hood yarn. WOLVES is directed by convergence-continuums Cory Molner and features company actors Beau Reinker and Eric Sever, and con-con newcomers Wesley Allen and Theresa Pedone. WOLVES runs Thu-Sat at 8 pm through May 30 at the Liminis theater, 2438 Scranton Rd. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 seniors (65+), $10 students. Reservations and information at http://www.convergence-continuum.org and 216-687-0074.
