Streaming THIS weekend ONLY--Beck Center "Teen Untitled Sketch Show"
by Julie Gilliland 22 Mar '21

22 Mar '21

Beck Center for the Arts Produces The Teen Untitled Sketch Show Available for streaming from Thursday, March 25 to Sunday March 28, 2021 Lakewood, OH-Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org> announces The Teen Untitled Sketch Show<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/youthshows-teen>. Available for convenient streaming, this production allows for maximum creativity Beck Center students. Beck Center's upcoming Youth Theater production presents a unique opportunity to bring out more than these students' acting skills; this process also allows for real life writing for stage experience. For the first time in Beck Center Youth Theater history-the play is being written by the students who will perform in it. Many of these students have performed in past Beck Center Youth Theater productions written by instructors and directors Rachel Green and Russ Stich so they have been close to the process of crafting a new production. The pandemic created an opportunity for students to take a turn in the writer's chair to write "together" via Zoom, and craft the sketches they will be performing. The production will be filmed in-person, with all participants masked, and socially-distanced. Students of Beck Center, not limited to youth theater classes, were invited to audition for this piece. Patrick Ciamacco<http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/mission-history/> directs and guides the writing process. Patrick has a history with Beck Center for the Arts, as a director and performer, including performing as a last minute replacement for a lead role in a past holiday production. In addition to directing, designing and performing all over the Cleveland area, Patrick is also the Artistic Director and a co-founder of Blank Canvas Theatre.<http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/> Patrick says, of this experience of directing a teen show, while working with the 24 students, "This has been one of the roughest years... but theatre, and everyone involved in this show, help make each day a bit better. With the nature of our lives these days, artists are starved to create and collaborate. So we thought it would be fulfilling for the students to not only act in a piece... but also to create that piece from scratch. Putting all of their creative minds to work to create a truly original show." A student from this production even designed the show art. It is truly a collaborative effort. This limited virtual engagement runs March 25 to 28, 2021 on any device in the comfort of your home, as part of Beck Center for the Arts' 73rd Youth Theater Season. For more information, and to purchase tickets, please visit beckcenter.org<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/youthshows-teen>. Beck Center is located at 17801 Detroit Avenue<https://maps.google.com/?q=17801+Detroit+Avenue&entry=gmail&source=g> in Lakewood. Programming at Beck Center for the Arts is made possible through the generous support of the Ohio Arts Council. Beck Center gratefully acknowledges the generous funding provided by the citizens of Cuyahoga County through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. Beck Center for the Arts is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization that offers professional theater productions on two stages, arts education programming in dance, music, theater, visual arts, early childhood, creative arts therapies for individuals with disabilities, free gallery exhibits year-round, and outreach education programming.

THE CANVAS by Justin Lazor - Zoom Reading March 24
by Playwrights Local 22 Mar '21

22 Mar '21

Playwrights Local Presents A Free Reading of a New Play *THE CANVAS* *Written by Justin LazorDirected by Melissa Crum* Wednesday, March 24 at 7:00 pm Presented Online via Zoom INFO & ZOOM ACCESS http://www.playwrightslocal.org/winter-roundtable-series-2021/ SYNOPSIS *The Canvas *is an examination of what we mean by “art” and a journey toward and across the thin line that separates art from violence. A scholarship student at an elite art school, Deborah finds it hard to fit in amongst her pretentious classmates, Gabriel and Michelle, who ostracize her for both her socioeconomic difference as well as her ideas about what constitutes art. When their flamboyant teacher, Professor Poisson, unveils his latest masterpiece, a completely blank canvas, Michelle and Gabriel fawn over his genius, but Deborah feels compelled to call “bullshit” and point out the fact that the emperor has no clothes. This sets into motion a heated battle of wits between teacher and student, which ultimately culminates in Deborah creating a shocking work of art that none of the others will ever forget. FEATURING Peter E. Toomey Ariana Starkman Hannah Storch Eric Golovan ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT Justin Lazor is a lifelong resident of the Cleveland area, as well as a lifelong student at Cleveland State University. In addition to currently being a 2nd year playwriting candidate in the NEOMFA program, he’s also earned both a BA and an MA at CSU.
