Auditions for world premiere of "Drinking Habits 2: Caught in the Act" at ABOB!
by Clay Nielsen via NEohioPAL 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Arlene’s Broadway on Buffalo (ABOB), 236 Buffalo Street in Conneaut, OH, will hold auditions for its world premiere production of “Drinking Habits 2: Caught in the Act” on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, from 7-9 p.m. each date at the theater. Readings will be from the script. Written by Tom Smith, the play is a brand-new sequel to the original “Drinking Habits” and continues the adventures of the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing Convent. "Drinking Habits 2: Caught in the Act" is a comedy/farce in two acts. The same characters from "Drinking Habits" return (5w, 3m and the same location). Sister Augusta and Sister Philamena have grown weary of life in the convent. So when they receive word that an orphanage will be closed down unless the convent can raise the money to save it, the sisters plot to make their award-winning wine, hiding it from the ever-watchful eye of Mother Superior. Meanwhile, Paul is still reeling from having been left at the altar a second time by his former fiancée, Sally. Determined to save the orphanage he grew up in, Paul, along with Mother Superior, Father Chenille, his very pregnant sister Kate and her husband George, decides to mount a play to raise the money the orphanage needs. But when Mother Superior believes she’s had a vision, George can’t remember his lines, and Kate can’t stop her uncontrollable cravings, things are thrown into chaos just as the curtain rises. Performance dates are Nov. 13-15 and 20-22. Curtain is at 7:30 each night.

3 amazing reasons why the Pope wants to hire Vanity Crash to rock the Vatican
by Vanitycrash via NEohioPAL 29 Sep '15

3 amazing reasons why the Pope wants to hire Vanity Crash to rock the Vatican We have heard a lot about the Pope these last few days. Well the Pope has heard Vanity Crash too, and wants them to gig back at the Vatican ranch. When he called VC HQ, he said it was because he and Vanity Crash are similar in these amazing 3 ways: 1 - The Pope said, just like Vanity Crash, he loves getting all glam-ed up when he goes out. He loves the androgynous look of the long flowing white dresses, and just like Dennis Van Crash, he digs funky hats. 2 - The Pope said he too loves big, wild audiences when he's on tour. He has promised to share with VC some of his secrets to instantly get a thousand more Facebook fans instantly. 3 - Just like Vanity Crash, the Pope says he loves to sing songs about Love. He said he plans to come to the Five O'Clock Lounge in Lakewood this Saturday, incognito of course, to see VC perform live the songs from their new record called Love. You should come too, and not only to look for the disguised Pope, but to check out our fourth album. It is chocked full of lightning songs about the many sides of Love. Innocent love, disintegrating love, lustful love, the power of love, and stone cold love. To make this album even more extraordinary, we are grateful to have four amazing artists contributing their fine work to the album cover. Vanity Crash will host the display of fine works of art from these four artists: Laura Dumm, Cat Swartz, Beth Ross Yurich, and Gary Dumm. A gallery show will precede Vanity Crashs performance. The gallery event starts at 8:30pm and the night has no cover charge. Frigid Touch will finish out the night with their sparkling boy-girl electro-rock. =========================================== NO COVER 8:30pm - Gallery show featuring the art of Laura Dumm, Cat Swartz, Beth Ross Yurich and Gary Dumm 9:30pm - Vanity Crash 10:30pm - Frigid Touch Sat, Oct 3 The Five Oclock Lounge 11904 Detroit Ave, Lakewood 44107 - (216) 521-4906 =========================================== https://www.facebook.com/frigidtouch http://www.vanitycrash.com/ http://www.reverbnation.com/vanitycrash http://www.facebook.com/VanityCrash https://mkt.com/vanity-crash http://www.youtube.com/VanityCrash http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/VanityCrash2
