Northwest Bank presents Workshop Players Theater’s production of *Don’t Dress for Dinner * by Marc Camoletti Directed by Pat Price Farce is the name of the game in this door-slamming, fast-paced comedy. Bernard has planned a romantic weekend with his chic Parisian mistress, and a cordon bleu chef for style and class, but not including his wife, Jacqueline. His strategy rests on his best friend, Robert, to provide a foolproof alibi. Needless to say, nothing works out as planned. Suppose Robert turns up not realizing why he has been invited. Suppose Jacqueline will NOT leave for the weekend. Suppose there is a myriad of role reversals and secrets. Suppose everyone’s alibi gets confused with everyone else’s. An evening of hilarious confusion ensues as Bernard and Robert improvise at breakneck speed to save their skins! The cast includes: Jonathan McCleery, Marcia Darby, Jeff Caja, Deb Burrow, Melissa Lyle and Kevin Boland. Performances are April 20, 21, 22 and 28, 29, and May 5, 6, at 8 p.m. with two Sunday matinees, April 30 and May 7 at 3 p.m. All seats are $15. Reservations are encouraged.

OPENING: The Tempest at Tri-C Metro
by Astrid Jobe via NEohioPAL 06 Apr '17

06 Apr '17

The Tempest A play by William Shakespeare The setting is an “un-inhabited island” somewhere in the sea between the north coast of Africa and the Mediterranean coast of Italy. Queen Alonza, of Naples is returning from Africa where she has overseen the marriage of her sister, to the prince of Tunis. As the Queen’s ship enters the magical range of the enchanted island, Prospero, banished duke and bookish sorcerer, seizes the opportunity. He designs a series of events that will punish his enemies while restoring himself and his fifteen-year-old daughter, Miranda, to power in Italy. Prospero’s airy spirit, Ariell, petitions the Orishas of waters and tempests to create a devastating sea storm. The tempest shipwrecks the queen’s party and disperses the travelers about the island, causing each to despair that the others have perished. Amidst this unfolding drama, the young Miranda, Caliban, and Ferdinand each follow a voyage of passage of their own as they encounter the harbingers of a brave new world. Full of magic, mystery, pageantry and conflict, the first recorded performance of The Tempest was on November 1st in 1611. The play is both a comedy and a tragedy. It has been performed all over the world for more than 400 years continuing to inspire and delight. This production features original music and dance as well as an art installation of student-created artworks designed to bring the characters and imagined flora and fauna of the island to life. *Directed by Miriam Bennett. Choreography by Jessica Spurlock. Presented with live musical accompaniment. Original score by Aman Almeida and Andy Karkosiak.* Performances are April 12, 13, 14, 15 at 7:30pm and April 12 at 10:30am at Tri-C Metro's Main Stage Theatre, 2900 Community College Ave. Cleveland, OH 44113 Tickets are available online at www.trictickets.com or by calling the Box Office at 216-987-4444

CASTING PAID COMMERCIAL-NEED MOM'S OF MELLENNIALS-APPLY TODAY!
by Abe Ronen via NEohioPAL 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

PAID non-union COMMERCIAL CASTING for an undisclosed major retail company in Cleveland, Ohio. Seeking MOTHERS OF MILLENNIAL CHILDREN (Moms with adult children age 18-32) to share a personal story about their own past, for instance, before having children, OR a story about themselves and/or their children from when the children were small through present day. We’re wondering, “What might your adult child NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU?” What story haven’t they heard “all” of the parts of? Your stories can be lighthearted, funny or touching but they should reveal something about yourself that your child doesn’t know. For example, BEFORE I GOT MARRIED AND DROVE A MINIVAN, I RODE A HARLEY, or WHEN I MET YOUR DAD FOR THE FIRST TIME, I THOUGHT HE WAS A NERD." It is important that your stories NOT be known to your children OR that there are aspects or important details of your story that you have purposefully left out in the past so the element of surprise is still in play on the shoot day (where we will have you reveal your story to your adult child on film). You (AND your millennial child) must be available for the shoot day, Thursday, April 13, 2017 in Cleveland, Ohio to be considered. If chosen for the commercial, pay is $750 each person for up to an 8 hour long shoot day. Accepting submissions from those in Northeast Ohio and the neighboring region including Pittsburgh, Columbus, etc. Please submit a cell phone video of yourself telling your 1-4 minute story, along with a still photo of yourself and your adult son or daughter to marcyronen(a)gmail.com ASAP! Please put MOM STORY in the subject line of your e-mail. Include your name and contact info along with your video and still images (we prefer .jpeg files). Make sure you are well lit in the video and that it is quiet in the room you are recording in. Fill the frame with your face so we can see you clearly. Remember not to discuss the story you are submitting with your family members! Looking forward to hearing your stories! Submit today!
