THE BEST MAN Opens TONIGHT!
by Craig Joseph via NEohioPAL 29 Jul '16

29 Jul '16

Seat of the Pants Productions is proud to present Gore Vidal's THE BEST MAN. Written and premiering on Broadway in 1960, this Tony-nominated poitical satire is still witty and prophetic against the backdrop of the 2016 presidential election. THE BEST MAN pits William Russell against Joe Cantwell as they both vie for their party's nomination during a contested convention. The battle for delegates finds both men courting a countrified former president for his endorsement, managing crises with their respective wives, and fielding increasingly corrupt suggestions from their campaign managers. Skewering both the left and the right, offering biting critiques of how we "do" politics, and raising important questions about character and ethics, THE BEST MAN is sure to be more entertaining than tuning into the actual news. The production stars: Heidi Swinford, Stephanie Cargill, Margo Parker, Scott Miesse, Greg Emanuelson, Nick Bailey, Bob McCoy, Tom Stephan, Matthew Heppe, Joe Haladey, and Stephen Berg. The production runs July 29th through August 7th, with shows on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 PM, and Sundays at 2 PM. Performances are at The Black Box Theatre at GlenOak High School, 1801 Schneider Street NE in Canton. For more information and to purchase tickets, see www.seatofthepants.eventbrite.com.

ABOUT THE SHOW Before Andrew Lloyd Webber's JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, EVITA AND PHANTOM OF THE OPERA there was JOSEPH & THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT, still one of the top 5 most performed musicals in the world. Joseph is his father's favorite. Joseph is a gifted psychic. His eleven brothers are very, VERY JEALOUS! It's all here: favoritism, betrayal, attempted murder, fame, famine and...forgiveness. This rock show is turbo-driven family entertainment. Get your tickets early for NWT'S HOLIDAY PRODUCTION, 2016. Sure to sell out!!! Lots of roles, all open, plus a huge singing and dancing ensemble. A crazily energetic experience. A fast-paced short show. Riotous fun. Emotionally touching. Surprisingly relevant. This show explores the meaning of loyalty, family, forgiveness and hope!!! Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat will be directed by Bob Navis Jr. Choreography by Josh Landis. Stage Management by Ryan Wolf. CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS MANY ROLES OPEN TO ALL GENDERS * Narrator, Soprano or Tenor (Low A to High A): The principle storyteller, not of the time or place of the action, the Narrator tells the story through word and song, guiding the audience through the story of Joseph and his brothers. * Joseph, Tenor (Low B-flat to High G): Obviously his father's favorite, Joseph early on shows a talent for interpreting dreams and telling the future. This gets him into trouble with his brothers when he predicts his future will include ruling over the other eleven. * Jacob, Baritone (Low B to High D-flat): The father of the twelve sons, Jacob definitely favors Joseph. At times he may appear unfair and shallow, but he is, more importantly, the prophet who recognizes the future and the calling of Joseph, thus saving the House of Israel. * The Brothers: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Naphtali, Issachar, Asher, Dan, Zebulun, Gad, Benjamin, Judah. The brothers need to be a range of ages, from teen to 30's/40's. Although acting usually as a group, they have their own different personalities, talents, and flaw. As a group they sell Joseph into slavery, but as individuals they deal with the following years and how they can make amends. * Potiphar, Baritone (Low D to B): A powerful and rich Egyptian, Potiphar purchases Joseph and puts him to work in his household, where he soon realizes that Joseph is honest, hard-working, and a great addition to his pool of help. When he grows suspicious of his wife and Joseph, however, he grows angry and has Joseph thrown into prison. * Mrs. Potiphar, Alto/Mezzo (Low D to A): Beautiful and scheming, Mrs. Potiphar tries to seduce Joseph (unsuccessfully). However, she does manage to rip off much of his clothing just as her husband comes into the room, thus condemning him to prison. * Baker, Tenor (Low D to High G): One of Pharaoh's servants, the Baker is in prison with Joseph who correctly interprets his dreams and predicts that he will be put to death. * Butler, Tenor (Low C to High G): Another of Pharaoh's servants, the Butler is also in prison with Joseph who also correctly interprets his dreams, this time that he will be released and taken back into Pharaoh's household. It is the Butler who tells Pharaoh about Joseph and his uncanny ability with dreams. * Pharaoh, Tenor/Baritone (Low B-flat to High A-flat): Typically performed as an Elvis Presley impersonation. The most powerful man in Egypt, Pharaoh is considered a god on earth. When Joseph interprets his dreams, he promotes him to one of the highest positions in his government.

CORRECTION - Full time office position - travel and tourism
by Rick Klimek via NEohioPAL 28 Jul '16

28 Jul '16

In the original submission, I did not put a heading AND THE WRONG PHONE NUMBER "Full time office position - travel and tourism" Small office looking for someone with very good computer knowledge (almost an IT person!) for a full time position. Located in Mentor, you would work on school travel group arrangements both into and out of Cleveland. There is also a property management opportunity. Office is located in Mentor, right off Rt. 2 and Rt. 306 only 20 minutes from downtown. Casual setting. Being a small company, it is a good chance to learn a lot about all aspects of business. I need someone that is detail oriented and responsible. Call Rick 440-953-8687 -- Rick Klimek 440-953-8687 7620 Buchanan Ct. Mentor, OH 44060
