Canton Brewing Company & Voices of Canton Invite you to SingStark!
by Krista Schweitzer via NEohioPAL 28 Aug '15

28 Aug '15

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Carol Olson colson(a)voicesofcanton.org 330-455-1000 Photo Available Upon Request August 28, 2015 The Canton Brewing Company and SingStark Partnership: Forget Auditions and Commitments - Find the Door and Just Sing! The Canton Brewery is partnering with Voices of Canton, Inc. to bring you a new group singing experience: SingStark! It’s a no-commitment, no-audition chorus perfect for anyone who loves to sing and those who secretly love to sing in the shower and in the car. SingStark kicks off on September 16 at 7 p.m. at The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy, 227 Market Ave N. and will continue every third Wednesday of each month. SingStark was created to be equal parts social and musical: Make some great Speakeasy memories at the Canton Brewery by singing together with friends to your favorite songs, while enjoying great beer dating all the way back to the 1880s. How can you participate in SingStark? The first step is to #FindTheDoor to The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy and pay a five-dollar cover charge. The second step is to #JustSing. It is that simple. Inspired by similar groups such as Pop-Up Chorus in Durham, North Carolina, SingStark is an easy and fun way for would-be singers to enjoy singing with a group but without the time commitment required from a traditional choir. Participants in SingStark will learn two popular songs each month which they perform, record and film on the same night. Singers can also find out if they got captured on film by checking out the SingStark Youtube page. It is never the same group twice - meet new people, sing old and new songs! For more information, check out www.voicesofcanton.org/singstark. ###

by Sparano, Jenniver via NEohioPAL 28 Aug '15

28 Aug '15

Last Monday, the crowd was grooving to the disco beat and glitter excess of Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens! Were you one of them? If you missed the show, don't worry - there is still one more chance to see it, when we perform on Monday, August 31 at the Cassidy Theatre! The cast -- Leslie Andrews, Tricia Bestic *, Patrick Ciamacco, Amiee Collier, Dan Folino *, Neely Gevaart, Mike Majer, Pat Miller, and Matthew Ryan Thompson - is the same! The band -- Gregory Cross, Tim Keo and Christopher Zanella, under the baton of Music Director Butch Marshall -- is the same! The script -- book and lyrics by Charlotte Mann and Michael Fidler, with music by Jonathan Croose and Robin Forrest and additional music by Adam Meggido and James Compton, based on original ideas by Johanna Allitt, Simon Curtis, Charlotte Mann and Michael Fidler - is the same! You can learn more about the show at the official website, http://www.saucyjackandthespacevixens.com/ (Parental guidance is strongly recommended.) The glitter, glitz and glamour of the Space Vixens are the same! But you never know what might happen differently at Monday's performance... so even if you saw the show last week, it's worth seeing again! The venue is different! That's the Cassidy Theatre, at 6200 Pearl Road, part of the Parma Heights municipal complex. Curtain time is 8:00! The agency is different! All proceeds from Monday's show go to the AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland, to support the many services they provide to those affected by AIDS and HIV in our Northeast Ohio community. And if madcap comedy, amazing musical performances, and the good feeling that comes from knowing that you're helping others aren't enough, we've also got a cavalcade of raffle prizes! You won't want to miss this one-of-a-kind event. Get your ticket now, by visiting http://bit.ly/SaucyJack<http://bit.ly/SaucyJack> or calling the AIDS Taskforce at 216-621-0766, extension 2915.
