*LAND OF CLEVE REVIEW: * *Blood, Body Parts and Jokes Fly * *in Blank Canvas Theatre's * *Outrageous Offering * *'Evil Dead: The Musical'* *Evil Dead: The Musical* is sold out! The entire run sold out before it even opened. However, if you haven't already purchased your tickets for Blank Canvas Theatre's latest offering, don't panic. You can get on a waiting list an hour before each performance and the group will do its best to squeeze you in -- even if it means chainsawing off a limb or two! Fans of the movies on which the show is based will know that that was a joke -- or was it? Either way, you don't need to be familiar with Sam Raimi’s cult classics to enjoy *Evil Dead: The Musical*. It's basically a spoof of every fright flick ever filmed in which a bunch of friends make the terrible decision of vacationing at an abandoned cabin in the woods, only to encounter something hideous and horrific and one-by-one face a gruesome death... *READ THE FULL REVIEW -- **https://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2019/10/cleve-review-blood-body-parts-and-jokes.html <https://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2019/10/cleve-review-blood-body-parts…>*

Berko review: THE PENELOPIAD @ Ensemble
by Roy Berko 21 Oct '19

21 Oct '19

•••••••••••••••• *Capsule judgment: “The Penelopiad” is a well-directed and performed play which exposes the audience to the lost art of Greek theater production while telling a contemporary tale of women caught in a man’s world. It will be of interest to true theater-goers who appreciate quality theatrics.* To read the entire review go to www.royberko.info.

Gameshow Host Wanted!
by Executive Director 21 Oct '19

21 Oct '19

Gameshow Host Wanted! Seeking charismatic individuals to co-host a start-up regional/national academic/sports gameshow series. The gameshow is the next step in the development of a locally deployed youth/adult program. You don’t have to be a sports nut or Einstein, as long as you bring an energy and excitement to the screen. Though portions of the show will be scripted, your ability to adlib and provide color will be important to the show’s personality! Here’s the submission process: send us a video of you providing color commentary to an off-screen or on-screen activity. The activity can be anything – a sports event, two animals fighting on NatGeo, or your favorite sitcom or movie. It doesn’t have to be long (maybe, a minute or two). Shoot it with whatever you have at hand – camera, phone, etc. Compensation? Initially, $25 per four (4) hour session. To be frank, think of it as gas money. Compensation will increase with additional program revenues. Here’s where to send the link to your submission: MADVistaProductions(a)gmail.com

HOMOS, OR EVERYONE IN AMERICA now at convergence-continuum

21 Oct '19

_HOMOS, OR EVERYONE IN AMERICA_ NOW ONSTAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM Convergence-continuum continues its 2019 Season, “Star-Crossed,” with the Ohio premiere of _Homos, or Everyone in America, _by Jordan Seavey, directed by Clyde Simon. Unfolding like jumbled flashes of memory, _Homos, or Everyone in America_ is told through interweaving glimpses, jumping around among moments over a five year period in the relationship of a contemporary couple. What does it mean to be in a committed relationship? Is monogamy just monotony? If navigating this isn’t complicated enough, what can happen when, on top of everything else, the couple is unexpectedly confronted by a vicious hate crime? _Homos_ is a fearless, often funny, openly emotional examination of the moments that can bring two people together – or pull them apart. “A daringly frank, funny and affecting new play. Mr. Seavey’s portrait of young gay New Yorkers negotiating the sometimes thorny nature of love and intimacy has an arresting, even bruising honesty.” -The New York Times “Seavey is dealing with very large ideas that have bedeviled the gay ‘community’ – and everybody else – forever. “ -New York Magazine _Homos _is directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic Director, Clyde Simon. Members of the cast are Nate Homolka, Kieron Cindric, Corey East and Rocky Encalada. _Homos, or Everyone in America _runs Thu-Sat at 8 p.m. through Nov 9 at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland, OH 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Fri and Sat tickets are $20 general admission, $15 for seniors and $10 for students. Thurs tickets are $15 gen. admission, $12 seniors and $8 students. Tickets and information are available at convergence-continuum.org [1] and 216-687-0074. ------------------------------- Convergence-continuum’s production of _Homos, or Everyone in America _is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.

REVIEW: Review of Pipeline at Cleveland Play House
by Laura Kennelly 21 Oct '19

21 Oct '19

BOTTOM LINE: Despite a good effort by the talented Cleveland Play House team, it’s not enough to smooth over distracting dramatic elements inherent in the play itself. *Pipeline* tries to cover too many important social topics — public and private education, divorce, single parents, social reform — all at once. It takes a village to make a mess? I don’t think that’s what the playwright had in mind, but that seems to be what she shows us. Morisseau, a MacArthur Foundation Genius Grant awardee for 2018, offers 90 minutes of pain about marriage, schools, responsibility and assumptions.
