Theatre on the Spectrum presents: Clowning Around!
by Wendy Duke 12 Mar '19

12 Mar '19

Theatre on the Spectrum, NE Ohio’s only day theatre company for adults with disabilities, presents “Clowning Around,” an hour’s worth of original clown comedy acts. The performances will be held at the Blue Box Studio, 1501 S Hawkins Ave in the New Season plaza. Company members were inspired by working with Gale McNeely, a traveling clown and commedia teacher from California, who led a workshop with the troupe this past fall. Clowning involves learning many physical skills. The challenge for the company was finding ways to include all abilities in the comedy. Through collaboration and creative thinking, the actors have devised a montage of clown acts that include tributes to traditional circus clowns, William Shakespeare, the Kinks, and Samuel Beckett. This production is co-directed by Wendy Duke and Ruben Ryan. Performance dates are: March 18, 20 & 21 at noon; March 22 at 7 pm March 25, 27, 28 at 1 pm; March 29 at 7 pm A ticket donation of $3 is suggested. We are a wheelchair accessible venue, but please call for reservations as seats are filling up fast! Call 234-678-7830 for more information and reservations. Theatre on the Spectrum is a collaboration between Ardmore Inc and the Center for Applied Drama and Autism. *Wendy Duke* Co-Founder, *The Center for Applied Drama and Autism* Program Director, *Theatre on the Spectrum Adult Day Company, Ardmore Inc* email: wendy(a)centerforada.org <laura(a)centerforada.org> telephone: 330.687.4177 web: centerforada.org

Classical Audition Class
by Jessica Houde 12 Mar '19

12 Mar '19

Hi, We will be offering a new Classical Audition Class with Tom Cullinan every Saturday starting on March 23rd! The class will be held on Saturdays from 12-2P at 1777 Coventry Rd. ClevelandHeights. Classical Audition Class Synopsis The Classical audition Class at Houde School of Acting gives each actor the opportunity to explore Shakespeare’s language and develop a strong classical monologue while working on a scene from one of the Bard’s plays. We will explore how the language of Shakespeare, far from being a barrier to understanding, can actually help guide the actor toward making strong performance choices based on its inherent rhythm. The actor will also work on and develop a Shakespearian sonnet, which can also be used as a second audition choice. For more information or to sign up please respond to this email or go to www.houdeschollofacting.com Thanks, Jessica Houde-Morris Houde School of Acting
