Review of "Death and the Maiden" at Mamai Theatre Company
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 20 Sep '15

20 Sep '15

The thrill is gone from political thriller ‘Death and the Maiden’ Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Political thrillers are precarious things. Historical facts are tightly interwoven with fiction so the two are often indistinguishable. There are reprobates, provocateurs and protagonists aplenty, but it is often impossible to know who is which throughout the course of the play. It is not until the very end, when the great reveal puts all the pieces and parts together, that you learn the truth – well, the playwright’s take on the truth – about who did what to whom and for what political reasons. So much rides on precise writing to generate intrigue, provocative staging to maintain deception and tension, and perfect execution to make the characters believable and the journey worthwhile. Ariel Dorfman's 1990 “Death and the Maiden” is a different kind of political thriller. For one thing, there is no great reveal. Early on we learn just who did what to whom and why. And when the play comes to a close, it is not at all clear whether what has been said to have occurred actually occurred at all.

The Open Door is a monthly workshop led by a different master teacher each session and highlighting a different area associated with performance. From physical action to voice to dance, anyone can benefit from these skills. No experience necessary!!! About the Session: Peace can be channeled through the mind, through the spirit, through the body and through the voice. The voice is a powerful instrument capable of vibrational frequencies which can help reduce stress, alter consciousness and create a deep sense of peace, well being and overall better health. Using techniques learned from Tibetan Sound Healing and Singing Circles, Benjamin Rexroad and Kyle Jozsa of Wandering Aesthetics will guide participants on a vocal journey designed to promote harmony and healing. Working with breath, tone and resonation, participants will discover a deeper connection and appreciation for the voice and its energy. *Participants will not be required to vocalize.* About the Instructor: Benjamin Rexroad and Kyle Jozsa, Co-Artistic Directors of the Akron-based Storytelling Theatre Company, Wandering Aesthetics, believe in taking a spiritual approach to the actor's craft. Their time training with companies such as SITI Company, Double Edge and New World Performance Laboratory, have taught the pair the importance of discipline and development. Understanding the body, voice and imagination are the primary instruments of the storyteller, the duo uses rigorous physical, vocal and mental training as a backbone to create dynamic live performances.
