Auditions are open to everyone, including students and community persons. On a cold winter's evening, under the magnetic magic of the northern lights, several couples in the sleepy, mythical town of Almost, Maine experience love's joys and perils through a series of romantic, whimsical, unpredictable and often hilarious vignettes. Hearts are embraced, bruised, broken and mended - almost - leaving the people of this remote town forever changed. Auditions for Almost, Maine will be held on September 8 and 9 at 6 p.m. in the theatre of the Fine Arts Building, 6000 Frank Avenue NW in Jackson Township. Roles for this production are flexible. Male and female actors of various ages will be required to play multiple characters. No children. Those auditioning have the choice of working from sides (selected scene excerpts) or they may perform a prepared monologue. The director may also choose sides for people. For more information, visit www.kent.edu/stark/theatre-auditions<http://www.kent.edu/stark/theatre-auditions>. The production will be performed on November 13-15 and 20-22 in the Kent State Stark Theatre. Rehearsals commence on September 13 and will take place five evenings a week until opening.

TONIGHT - The Manhattan Project Goes Back to School!
by Manhattan Project via NEohioPAL 01 Sep '15

01 Sep '15

Between 1942 and 1945, J. Robert Oppenheimer gathered the most brilliant minds of the age at Los Alamos, New Mexico to create something awesome and terrible. The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab seeks to do the same for the Cleveland stage. It's Time to Go Back to School! Summer was great! You went on vacation, fell in love at camp, and bought awesome new skorts! But now it's time to get back to school and The Manhattan Project <https://www.facebook.com/TheManhattanProjectClevelandLab?fref=ts> wants to help by presenting four brand new plays by Cleveland playwrights: - Bite the Wax Tadpole by Mike Geither - Welcome Back by Amy Schwabauer - Next Time by Arwen Mitchell - Creation Myth by Mike Geither Please join us Tuesday, September 1 at 8:00pm <https://www.facebook.com/events/1157596770924227/> at Mahall's 20 Lanes <http://mahalls20lanes.com/> 13200 Madison Ave. Lakewood OH 44107 for plays that are sure to put you in the school spirit! What exactly is The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab? The Manhattan Project is a low-stakes, nonthreatening place for actors and playwrights to meet and work together. Based on the Theatre Lab model taught at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama and inspired by The Brooklyn Generator in New York, The Manhattan Project wants to introduce Cleveland actors and playwrights to each other by organizing a bi-monthly production of brand new 10-minute plays. Participating artists will meet early in the month and will be broken into teams, each with one playwright. The playwright will then be given a writing prompt to write a new 10-minute play based on the prompt and including all the team's actors. The rest of the evening the team members will get to know each other and get a feel for each other's skills and voices. The teams will reconvene later in the month to perform these plays for each other. These 10-minute plays are not an end in themselves. Through these small collaborations we hope to build relationships between the two most vulnerable artists in theatre; the actors who put themselves on stage and the playwrights who pour themselves onto the page. Perhaps these 10-minute plays will grow into longer works or maybe these collaborations will become partnerships on larger projects. If you'd like to participate, please RSVP at TrinityCrater(a)gmail.com or just show up at the next Meet & Greet in July. *For more info and updates:* like us on facebook <https://www.facebook.com/TheManhattanProjectClevelandLab>, Subscribe to Our Newsletter <http://eepurl.com/RGboj> and follow us on twitter @MPCleveLab . Some additional notes on the project: - In the spirit of shoe-string theatre, these 10-minute plays should have a budget of $0.00. - Playwrights will be directing the plays, or an actor from the team can volunteer to do so. - It's up to each team to schedule rehearsals together. Based on experience, it shouldn't take more than 3-4 hours of rehearsal time to get these plays on their feet. - Playwrights are invited in advance of the meet & Greet. - *Playwrights are invited based on participation in past Manhattan Project events, so please come to our events so we can get to know you!*

by James Charpie via NEohioPAL 31 Aug '15

31 Aug '15

East Cleveland Theater is looking for a director for its upcoming production of Clybourne Park, by Bruce Norris. This award winning play is loosely related to the Lorraine Hansberry play, "A Raisin in the Sun", taking place in a fictional Clybourne Park area of Chicago, of a time frame both before and after that of "Raisin". Clybourne Park is written in two acts. In Act I, we have a black family moving into a predominately white neighborhood. Act II, fifty years later in the same house, we have a white family moving into what has become a predominately black neighborhood. Cast: 4 men, 3 women Production Dates are: Fridays, February 05, 12, 19, 26 at 8pm Saturdays, February 06, 13, 22, 27 at 8pm Sundays, February 14, 21, 28 at 3pm (There is NO performance on Feb 7, Super Bowl Sunday.) East Cleveland Theater is located at 14108 Euclid Ave. We are currently preparing for our 47th Season, and are proud of our history of color-blind casting, except where the integrity of the show would be compromised. Please send your resume to: jcharpie(a)gmail.com If you have any questions, please call the theater office at 216-851-8721, or send an email to jcharpie(a)gmail.com. Sincerely, Jim Charpie Stage Manager
