Dark Room at CPT tomorrow - Featuring new work by Robert Hawkes and Open Mic!
by Mindy Herman 09 Apr '19

09 Apr '19

*The Dark Room at CPT on February 12th * *This month: Featured Reading of Would It Were Bedtime, and All Well by Robert Hawkes and Open Mic! * The Dark Room is a place where writers take center stage and their work has a chance to grow. The Dark Room is an ongoing event held on the second Tuesday of each month. The Dark Room affords emerging and veteran playwrights the space and resources to develop new works. It offers a venue to workshop plays, novels, poems, or any other written work in a supportive, yet critical environment. *Tuesday, February 12th* The Church at CPT (Just east of the Gordon Square Theatre Box Office) Cleveland Public Theatre 6407 Detroit Ave, Cleveland, OH 44102 *7:00pm: *Sign-up begins for writers and actors (space is limited). Writers can bring up to 10 pages of work to be read; actors will be cast on the spot! *7:30pm: *Featured Reading of Would It Were Bedtime, and All Well by Robert Hawkes *8:15pm:* Open Mic Session readings begin *And don't forget - FREE Great Lakes Brewing Company beer!* Suggested donation of $5 is welcomed at the door, but not required. *ABOUT THE FEATURED READING:* Would It Were Bedtime, and All Well is a monologue by Sir John Falstaff, Western literature’s best-loved drunk. It is, in fact, his first “lead” (principal talk) for Alcoholics Anonymous, which he has joined in hopes of regaining the favor of Prince Hal, now Henry V. The situation is necessarily de-chronologized, but then the Fat Knight is a character for ages - his own and all subsequent. His struggle to find the foundation of a real sobriety might be anybody's. And what we recognize as his foolishness, selfishness, and cowardice in his recollection of some of his exploits is, as in the plays, our own vulnerable humanity. *ABOUT THE WRITER: *Robert Hawkes is the author of four produced plays: The Importance of Waiting for the Eagle (CPT Big [BOX], 2014), Give Me the Map (convergence-continuum Tweener series, 2016), The Casual Tree Ward (convergence-continuum main stage, 2018), and The Silence of Dr & Mrs Caligari (Playwrights Local, 2018). He has acted at many Cleveland area theatres, and is a member of the acting company and Board of Directors at convergence-continuum, where he has appeared in seventeen plays. Open session readings are first come, first serve until all slots have been allotted. All submissions should be made to Mindy Herman at herman.mindy(a)gmail.com <https://remote.cptonline.org/owa/redir.aspx?C=1f797af3010b4ab1922624e9b2fd9…> or to John Busser at jpbusser(a)gmail.com <https://remote.cptonline.org/owa/redir.aspx?C=1f797af3010b4ab1922624e9b2fd9…> .

Nasheema appears to have everything she needs: a house, a handsome man, and a loving daughter. But beneath that facade, things are spiraling out of control.

OPENING THURSDAY! "Bus Stop" in Wadsworth
by Brenton Cochran 08 Apr '19

08 Apr '19

The Wadsworth Footlighters Proudly Presents... *"BUS STOP"* *By William Inge* *Directed by Brenton Cochran* *Produced by Cory Ott and Lindsay Patterson* *Performance presented with special arrangement with DRAMATISTS PLAY SERVICE. * *APRIL 11th - 14th, 2019* *Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm* *Sunday at 2:30pm* *At the Strand at 123 Broad St. Wadsworth, OH* *Tickets: $10 at the door. General Admission.* *WWW.WADSWORTHFOOTLIGHTERS.COM <http://www.wadsworthfootlighters.com/>* In the middle of a howling snowstorm, a bus out of Kansas City pulls up at a cheerful roadside diner. All roads are blocked, and four or five weary travelers are going to have to hole up until morning. Cherie, a nightclub chanteuse in a form-fitting dress and a seedy fur-trimmed jacket, is the passenger with most to worry about. She's been pursued, made love to and finally kidnapped by a twenty-eight-year-old cowboy with a ranch of his own and the romantic methods of an unusually headstrong bull. The belligerent cowhand is right behind her, ready to sling her over his shoulder and carry her, alive and kicking, all the way to Montana. Even as she's ducking out from under his clumsy but confident embraces, and screeching at him fiercely to shut him up, she pauses to furrow her forehead and muse, "Somehow deep inside of me I got a funny feeling I'm gonna end up in Montana …" As a counterpoint to the main romance, the proprietor of the cafe, Grace (originated on Broadway by the legend Elaine Stritch) and the bus driver at last find time to develop a friendship of their own; a middle-age scholar comes to terms with himself; and a young girl who works in the cafe also gets her first taste of romance. *Don't miss this all star cast and boldly directed production about the different facets of love, and the roads you didn't take. * *Cast of Characters:* *GRACE ... **Jenilee Taylor* *ELMA ... **Sarah Price* *WILL ...* *Martin Carlton* *CARL ... **Nathan Jarosz * *DR. LYMAN ... **Kevin Pickard* *CHERIE ... **MaryBeth Knode* *BO ... **Joe Kenderes* *VIRGIL ... **Adam Bowers *
