by convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

ONLY TWO WEEKENDS LEFT TO SEE HARBOR, A NON-CONVENTIONAL FAMILY'S COMEDY BY CHAD BEGUELIN A biting and touching romp into the shifting nature of the meaning of family, HARBOR tells the story of two newlyweds, Kevin and Ted, living in tranquil, affluent domesticity. That is, until Kevins pregnant pothead sister and her precocious teenage daughter show up unannounced at the couples beautiful Sag Harbor home. And then all hell breaks loose. Kevin wants a child. Ted thinks they should be baked into pies. The bonds between kith and kin are tested in this alternately hilarious and moving comedy. HARBOR is directed by Cory Molner, and features Cat Kenney, Maya Jones, Patrick Gladish and Gideon-Patrick Lorete. HARBOR runs Thurs-Sat at 8 pm through July 30 at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 seniors (65+), $10 students. Reservations at http://convergence-continuum.org and 216-687-0074. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This production is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, and by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.

Review of "Lady Windermere's Fan" at Mamai Theatre
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

Girls gone Wilde is the best part of Mamaí’s ‘Lady Windermere's Fan’ Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Men are immoral cowards and incorrigible fools and, though they become old, they never become good. So says playwright Oscar Wilde in his 1892 high society comedy “Lady Windermere's Fan,” and he reinforces his position by offering his male characters the wittiest self-incriminating one-liners (“Good heavens! How marriage ruins a man! It's as demoralizing as cigarettes, and far more expensive.”) and most emasculating dialogue. It’s the women in this play – who, while privileged and well positioned, live restricted and unsatisfying Victorian era lives – that take the moral high ground. And a few are supplied with Wilde’s most poignant, empowering soliloquies and pointed social commentary. Mamaí’s greatest strength is its ability to assemble an ensemble of remarkable female performers, and it has certainly done so in this production.
