WorddStage Season Opener
by Tim Tavcar via NEohioPAL 25 Sep '16

25 Sep '16

WordStageLiterary Concerts opens its 2016-17 Season with George BernardShaw’s How He Lied to Her Husband Friday,September 30, 2016 at 7:30 PMShaw stated that, “Nothing in the theatre is staler thanthe situation of husband, wife and lover, or the fun of knockabout farce.I have taken both, and got an original play out of them, as anybody else can ifonly he will look about him for his material instead ofplagiarizing Othello and the thousand plays that have proceeded onOthello’s romantic assumptions and false point of honor.” Shaw wrote this one act comedy of manners and mores ofBritish society over a period of four days while hewas vacationing in Scotland in 1904. In its preface he describedit as “a sample of what can be done with even the most hackneyed stageframework by filling it in with an observed touch of actual humanity instead ofwith doctrinaire romanticism.” The play has often been interpreted as a kind ofsatirical commentary on Shaw’s own highly successful earlier play Candida (whichone of the characters gets tickets to see).Shaw’s sparkling wit will be highlighted with the music ofhis favorite composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Cast: Bryan Ritchey – Deborah Magid – TimTavcar – Patrick Wickliffe, piano The performance is part of our Wright Chapel Series. The Chapel is within the LakewoodPresbyterian Church – 14502 Detroit Ave. at Marlowe in Downtown Lakewood. Tickets: There is a suggested donation of $10.00 for allWordStage Wright Chapel events – but we are maintaining our “Pay What You Can”policy from past seasons in order to make our performances available to all whoare interested in seeing them.For more information, please visit our web site at www.wordstageoh orcall 216-712-6926.

Review of "All the Way" at Cleveland Play House
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

Cleveland Play House’s ‘All the Way’ a riveting Elizabethan drama Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Richard II. Edward III. Henry VIII. LBJ. These famous figures from another time – with their larger-than-life personalities, excessive appetites, unfillable holes in their egos, and Rabelaisian crudity – are the focus of historical dramas that offer insight and perspective on the turbulent and heroic past. And while “All the Way” is a 2014 Tony Award-winning drama that chronicles the first year of Lyndon Baines Johnson’s accidental presidency in 1964, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Robert Schenkkan’s play is no less epic in scope, no less Elizabethan in style and no less theatrical than the works penned by William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe. And it is no less enthralling. For more of this review, go to www.clevelandjewishnews.com/columnists/.
