SingStark Event on April 19th
by via NEohioPAL 03 Apr '17

03 Apr '17

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Carol Olson colson(a)voicesofcanton.org 330-455-1000 Photo Available Upon Request April 3rd, 2017 SingStark! Announces Songs for April 19th, 2017 Event SingStark, a no-audition, no-commitment choir, will be singing ‘Down on the Corner’ by CCR, and ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ by Journey on Wednesday April 19th, 2017. SingStark is perfect for anyone who loves to sing and those who secretly love to sing in the shower and in the car. SingStark meets every third Wednesday of each month at The Canton Brewing Company, 227 Market Ave. N. How can you participate in SingStark? The first step is to #FindTheDoor to The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy and pay a five-dollar cover charge. The second step is to #JustSing. It is that simple. Inspired by similar groups such as Pop-Up Chorus in Durham, North Carolina, SingStark is an easy and fun way for would-be singers to enjoy singing with a group, but without the time commitment required from a traditional choir. Make some great Speakeasy memories at the Canton Brewery by singing together with friends to your favorite songs, while enjoying great beer dating back to the 1880s. P.J. Chavez, musician and educator, leads SingStark attendees each month in singing two popular songs. We will learn the songs and perform them the same evening. We record each performance and will post them on the SingStark YouTube channel. It is never the same group twice - meet new people, sing old and new songs! P.J. encourages people to come to SingStark, “When I think of the purpose of Sing Stark, I’m reminded of The New Seeker song “I’d like to Teach the World to Sing.” The lyrics say: “I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony. I'd like to hold it in my arms and keep it company. I'd like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand and hear them echo through the hills for peace throughout the land.” What a beautiful statement of what our world needs! So after a busy work day, in the middle of the week, take some time for yourself and SING! Let’s join hand in hand and make our song echo through the land!!! You Deserve It! I’ll see you there!” For more information, check out www.voicesofcanton.org/singstark. Also, follow us on facebook.com/singstark, or use search for @singstark on Twitter and Instagram. ###

TONIGHT - Purity Ball Meet & Greet - CALLING ACTORS
by Manhattan Project via NEohioPAL 03 Apr '17

03 Apr '17

Between 1942 and 1945, J. Robert Oppenheimer gathered the most brilliant minds of the age at Los Alamos, New Mexico to create something awesome and terrible. The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab seeks to do the same for the Cleveland stage. Thank Heaven! April is Manhattan Project's <https://www.facebook.com/pg/TheManhattanProjectClevelandLab/events/?ref=pag…> birthday, and like every year, we're doing something special to celebrate. This year The Manhattan Project is excited to host our first (and most likely last) Purity Ball! We're pleased to have some excellent Cleveland playwrights writing about fathers and daughters this April, including Claire Robinson May, Arwen Mitchell, Amy Schwabauer, Krysia Orlowski, Rachel Baird, and Catie O'Keefe! We need some awesome actors to help bring this father-daughter dance...wedding...whatever to life. Join us for our Meet & Greet <https://www.facebook.com/events/1773021906349245/> at 8:00pm on Monday, April 3 at Mahall's 20 Lanes.Performance <https://www.facebook.com/events/403883766653302/> will be Monday, April 24, also at Mahall's.We hope to see you all there!What exactly is The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab? The Manhattan Project is a low-stakes, nonthreatening place for actors and playwrights to meet and work together. Based on the Theatre Lab model taught at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama and inspired by The Brooklyn Generator in New York, The Manhattan Project wants to introduce Cleveland actors and playwrights to each other by organizing a bi-monthly production of brand new 10-minute plays. Participating artists will meet early in the month and will be broken into teams, each with one playwright. The playwright will then be given a writing prompt to write a new 10-minute play based on the prompt and including all the team's actors. The rest of the evening the team members will get to know each other and get a feel for each other's skills and voices. The teams will reconvene later in the month to perform these plays for each other. These 10-minute plays are not an end in themselves. Through these small collaborations we hope to build relationships between the two most vulnerable artists in theatre; the actors who put themselves on stage and the playwrights who pour themselves onto the page. Perhaps these 10-minute plays will grow into longer works or maybe these collaborations will become partnerships on larger projects. If you'd like to participate, please RSVP at TrinityCrater(a)gmail.com or introduce yourself at out next event. *Some additional notes on the play lab:* - In the spirit of shoe-string theatre, these 10-minute plays should have a budget of $0.00. - Playwrights will be directing the plays, or an actor from the team can volunteer to do so. - It's up to each team to schedule rehearsals together. Based on experience, it shouldn't take more than 3-4 hours of rehearsal time to get these plays on their feet. - Playwrights are invited in advance of the Meet & Greet. - *Playwrights are invited based on participation in past Manhattan Project events, so please come to our events so we can get to know you!*
