by Christine Cipriani via NEohioPAL 15 May '17

15 May '17

SHORE CULTURAL CENTRE OFFERS MASTER CLASS ON AUGUST WILSON The Theatre Program at Shore Cultural Centre, under the direction of Terrence Spivey, is offering a master class entitled “The World of August Wilson” on Saturday, June 10 from 10:00am – 1:00pm on the stage of Shore Auditorium. This intense study of the acclaimed American playwright (Fences, The Piano Lesson) will be led by Mark Clayton Southers, former artistic director of the August Wilson Center and Founder and Producing Director of Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Co. He has directed nation-wide including the Banyan Theatre in Sarasota and An Opera Company in Newark. Southers, who knew Wilson personally, is considered an expert scholar on August Wilson and his work. He stated, "I'm looking forward to collaborating with Terrence, a veteran of the theatre world whom I've admired for a long time." The master class will cover the main influences of Wilson—blues, Baraka (Leroi Jones), Romare Bearden and Jorge Luis Borges. Southers will, also, discuss the Hill District of Pittsburgh—Wilson’s home for many years and the locale for many of his plays. Key moments and scenes in Wilson’s plays will be discussed with emphasis placed upon the themes of love, honor, betrayal and duty and how they relate to the common man. Southers personal relationship with Wilson will, also, be covered. Actors from Cleveland and Pittsburgh will present scenes from The Piano Lesson, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and Fences. Participants will have the opportunity to work with the actors on scenes from these plays. It is recommended that participants come prepared to work on a particular scene or have a monologue prepared from one of Wilson’s plays. Spivey will, also, be a moderator of the master class. Spivey has directed many of Wilson’s plays and is considered a scholar of the playwright. Admission to the master class is $25 for adults. Only fourteen (14) spaces are available for participants. There is open enrollment for observers. For more information or to register, call 216-289-8578 or visit www.shoreculturalcentre.com. A light snack and water will be provided mid-way through the class. Shore Cultural Centre is located at 219 East 222nd Street in Euclid. Anthony Chisholm, Cleveland native and actor who has performed in a number of Wilson’s plays on Broadway, commented on the collaboration of Southers and Spivey. “They complement each other very well, so my advice to them is to stay in touch with God, keep your seat belts fastened and enjoy the ride.” Shore Cultural Centre 291 E. 222nd Street Euclid, Ohio 44123 Phone: 216-289-8578 www.shoreculturalcentre.com<http://www.shoreculturalcentre.com/>
