Kennelly Review, Waitress @ Playhouse Square
by Laura Kennelly 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Sara Bareilles’ hit musical *Waitress* has returned to Playhouse Square for an extended run in the close confines of the Hanna Theatre. The show is based on the 2007 motion picture written by Adrienne Shelly with a book by Jessie Nelson, music and lyrics by Sara Bareilles, choreography by Lorin Latarro and direction by Diane Paulus. In this case, “a new look” does not mean improved. The Hanna’s thrust stage has been removed and the theater’s excellent acoustical properties are buried under amplification. The vocalists and the compact onstage band, conducted by Lilli Wosk, often overwhelmed the space. What is usually an advantage in the Hanna (proximity of every seat to the stage) has become a liability. For the complete review see https://coolcleveland.com/2022/06/theater-review-waitress-playhouse-square-…

LOG CABIN continues this weekend at convergence-continuum
by Cory Molner 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

Log Cabin by Jordan HarrisonMay 26, 2022 - June 11th, 2022 Directed by Eva Nel Brettrager & Cory Molner Convergence-continuum continues its 2022 season, “Societies in Question” with the Regional Premiere of Log Cabin, by Jordan Harrison. It’s a faraway age of hope and inclusivity; in other words, it’s 2015. When a tight-knit circle of married gays and lesbians – comfy in the new mainstream – sees themselves through the eyes of their rakish transgender pal, it’s clear that the march toward progress is anything but unified. With stinging satire and acute compassion, Jordan Harrison’s pointed comedy charts the breakdown of empathy that happens when we think our rights are secure, revealing conservative hearts where you’d least expect. "Log Cabin" has plenty of laughs, thanks to strong performances throughout and the playwright's rapier wit.- Cleveland Scene (Christine Howey) "A superb cast" - Mark Horning Log Cabin is directed by Eva Nel Brettrager and Cory Molner and features actors Isaiah Betts, Samantha Cocco, Carolyn Demanelis, Emmett Podgorski, Lucy Turner, and Scott Zolkowski. Intimacy direction by Kari Barclay. Scenic Design by August Scarpelli. Lighting and Sound Design by Austin Hopson. Costume Design by Amanda Rowe Van Allen. ~~~All performances are held at the Liminis Theater2438 Scranton Rd. Cleveland 44113in the Historic Tremont neighborhood.~~~This production of Log Cabin is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture. Cory Molner Executive Artistic Director, convergence-continuum Theater (He/Him/His)
