14 Apr '22

DOG ACT CONTINUES THROUGH APRIL 16, AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM Post-apocalyptic wilderness was never funnier. Dog Act follow the adventures of Zetta Stone, a traveling performer, and her companion Dog (a young man undergoing a voluntary species demotion) as they wander through the former northeastern United States. Zetta, Dog and their little troupe are on their way to a gig in China, assuming they can find it...and survive the journey. A theatrical, darkly comic variation on the classic doomsday genre, with five original songs. Convergence-Continuum bills itself as Cleveland’s up-close and OUT there Theatre. Over the years they have built a fanatical following of fans who are nearly as fun to watch as the show. This show is right up their dark and scary alley. For fans of more conventional theater this might be considered a walk on the wild side. If you feel a little daring, buy a ticket and take a chance.- Mark Horning, Cleveland Theater Reviews Dog Act is directed by David L. Munnell and features actors Denise Astorino, Andrea Belser McCormick, Wesley Allen, Emileo Fernandez, Mike Frye, and Kate Smith, with original music by Jonah Raider-Roth. Scenography by Cory Molner and Scott Zolkowski.

Beck Center Youth Theater Production of Bugsy Malone
by Julie Gilliland 14 Apr '22

14 Apr '22

Contact: Julie Gilliland, Director of Marketing, jgilliland(a)beckcenter.org<mailto:jgilliland@beckcenter.org> FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 14, 2022 Beck Center For The Arts Announces Youth Theater Production Bugsy Malone, A Musical Comedy Classic For All Ages Lakewood, OH-Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org/> is pleased to announce the fourth production of their 2021-2022 Youth Theater Season.<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-theater> The 73rd season continues with a funny classic, Bugsy Malone<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/bugsy>, written by Allen Parker, with music and lyrics by Paul Williams, running May 6 to May 15, 2022, in the Senney Theater. Based on the hit 1976 film, and featuring a catchy, swinging score by the composer of The Muppet Movie, Bugsy Malone is good, clean, comedic fun. Two gangs comprised completely of children, square off in a 1920s rivalry of Capone-ian standards. Bugsy Malone, a one-time boxer, is thrust not-so-willingly into the gangster limelight when all he really wants to do is spend time with his new love, Blousey, but that just isn't in the cards for our hero. A master class in musical comedy, this show is a fun escape for adults and children alike. Musical direction is by Heidi Herczeg. Sarah Clare, Associate Director of Theater Education at Beck Center, and director and choreographer of Bugsy Malone says of this production, "One of the things we have discussed many times in this show, is how mean and 'bad' the characters in the play are. We talk about how it is everyone's choice to treat people with kindness, or to treat them poorly. At the end of the show the characters reflect on the choices they have made, and how they could have chosen a different path. One of the main reasons for doing this show, was to ultimately have a fun time and get to be silly characters. But another, even more important, reason is the chance to have conversations with our students, about who they want to be, and how their choices lead to who they become. The lyrics 'You're gonna be remembered for the things that you say and do,' are a constant reminder to make choices that allow us to be better friends, acquaintances, and people in this world." This production is now on sale to the public<https://beckcenter.na.ticketsearch.com/sales/salesevent/1363> with a 7:30 pm curtain on Fridays, May 6 and 13, Saturdays, May 7 and 14, and 3:00 pm matinees on Sundays, May 8 and 15, 2022 with a student matinee on Thursday, May 12, 2022 at 10:00 am EST.
