ALMOST SOLD OUT: Lerner & Loewe concert this Sunday
by Joanna Hunkins via NEohioPAL 17 Nov '16

17 Nov '16

Only a handful of tickets remain for "Almost Like Being in Love: The Songs of Lerner and Loewe" *Presented by The Musical Theater Project* *Sunday, November 20, 2016 | 2:00 PM* Hanna Theatre, Playhouse Square They were the last of the great Romantics: lyricist Alan Jay Lerner, a well-bred New Yorker with a Harvard education, and composer Frederick Loewe, 17 years older, classically trained and born in Berlin. Together they fashioned four of the most beloved musicals of all time: *My Fair Lady, Camelot, Brigadoon and Gigi*, writing for stars Rex Harrison, Julie Andrews, Richard Burton and Leslie Caron. You’ll hear your favorite songs from all four musicals, including “If Ever I Would Leave You,” “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face,” “Gigi” and “Almost Like Being in Love”—and so much more. It’s a remarkable story of two men who saw the world the same way, writing straight from their hearts during what Lerner called the “sundown of wit, eccentricity and, if you will, elegance.” Co-hosted by *Bill Rudman* and *Nancy Maier* | Arrangements by *Ty Emerson* Featuring *Benjamin Czarnota* and *Clare Eisentrout* *TICKETS* $35-$55 Tickets available through the Playhouse Square Box Office. Call 216-241-6000 or visit PlayhouseSquare.org <http://www.playhousesquare.org/events/detail/almost-like-being-in-love-the-…>

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Lindgren Carson Phone: 216-320-9000 lindgren(a)clevelandballet.org <mailto:lindgren@clevelandballet.org> www.clevelandballet.org Cleveland Ballet Joins School of Cleveland Ballet for Nutcracker Tea This Annual Tradition Takes on New Life and a New Location CLEVELAND, OH November 16-Cleveland Ballet's sister organization the School of Cleveland Ballet holds its 16th Annual Nutcracker Tea on December 18, 2016. This year the popular afternoon of dance, tea and Sugar Plum Fairies will take place at Andrews Osborne Academy (AOA). Members of Cleveland Ballet's resident company will also be on hand to perform select portions of this holiday classic. The Nutcracker Tea provides families the chance to experience an abridged version of the classic story ballet and meet the dancers after the performance. School of Cleveland Ballet students present key scenes choreographed by Artistic Director Gladisa Guadalupe set to Tchaikovsky's famous score. This afternoon of dance and fun is ideal for families with young children and aspiring ballet dancers and ballerinas. "We have been performing the Nutcracker Tea for 16 years," says Guadalupe, "and each year we have a chance to introduce more children and their families to this wonderful and magical story." Continuing its tradition of celebrating classical ballet as a dance form for all people, among the evening's dancers are Bedford Middle School students and who auditioned for the program after attending Cleveland Ballet's educational dance outreach program. Cleveland Ballet's STEP program (science, technology, evaluation, performance), introduces students to scientific ideas and topics to performative arts, especially dance. The program provides a scalable model for teaching this integration. This event is made possible thanks to a grant from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture, which supports the Nutcracker Tea and the School's educational outreach program. To purchase tickets $45 adult and $25 children from 2 to 16 years old and learn more about how to support School of Cleveland Ballet please visit clevelandballet.org or call: 216-320-9000. --more-- ABOUT SCHOOL OF CLEVELAND BALLET As the official training academy of Cleveland Ballet, School of Cleveland Ballet has been recognized as Northeast Ohio's finest school for ballet education and training.
