Our cast features people both neurodivergent and neurotypical, both disabled and able-bodied. We offer flexible seating options, a Sensory Break Room and a judgement-free space for anyone who wants to experience the joy of theatre. AND tickets are Pay-As-You-Like! The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. *S**eussical *is fun for the whole family! *“A person’s a person, no matter how small.”* *Directed by Sarah Lynne BaileyMusic Directed by Lisa HirzelChoreographed by Andrea Belser * *Performances:*November 8th-17th, 2024 Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30pm Sundays at 3pm *Location:* Cultural Arts Center at Disciples Christian Church 3663 Mayfield Road, Cleveland Heights Auditions, rehearsals & performances will take place here Questions?

AUDITIONS for Lauren Gunderson's The Half Life of Marie Curie
by Anne McEvoy 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

*Audition Notice: * *The Half Life of Marie Curie * by Lauren Gunderson Directed by Anne McEvoy NOVEMBER 26th and 27th 7pm @ Clague Playhouse *STORY:* In 1911, Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her discovery of the elements radium and polonium. By 1912, she was the object of ruthless gossip over an alleged affair with the married Frenchman Paul Langevin, all but erasing her achievements from public memory. Weakened and demoralized by the press lambasting her as a “foreign” Jewish temptress and a homewrecking traitor, Marie agrees to join her friend and colleague Hertha Ayrton, an electromechanical engineer and suffragette, at her summer home in England. *The Half-Life of Marie Curie* revels in the power of female friendship as it explores the relationship between these two brilliant women, both of whom are mothers, widows, and fearless champions of scientific inquiry.*“A fast-paced, frisky, feminist crowd pleaser…80 minutes of wit and wisdom powered by two turn-of-the-century female STEM stars…a powerhouse theatrical opportunity for two, middle-aged actresses.”* *Characters:* 2 women*MARIE CURIE:* 40 – 50 yr. of age. Slight Polish dialect. A French national…and brilliant, shrewd, private, and patient scientist. At this point, she has already won her first Nobel prize in physics with her husband, Pierre, in 1903. She is the mother of two daughters, Irene(4) and Eve (7) and was widowed in 1906 when her husband died tragically.*HERTHA AYRTON:* Mid to late 50’s. Refined British dialect but she’s not above using strong language. A brazen, ambitious, fiercely, intelligent, engineer, inventor, and suffragist. Widowed in 1908, she continued her work in electrical experimentation while secretly housing suffragettes running from police. Of Jewish origin, she became an agnostic pragmatist who changed her name from Sarah to Hertha after a Swinburne poem about a goddess of the earth.Please come prepared with a short (90 second max) monologue and be prepared to read from the script. Scripts are available for 3 days at the Clague Playhouse Box Office for a $10 refundable deposit. All perusal scripts must be returned by Saturday, Nov. 23, 2024. Headshots and/or resumes greatly appreciated but not required.*NOTE: If Anne has directed you in a previous play, no need to prepare a monologue.

Kennelly Review :Mean Girls
by Laura Kennelly 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

It’s not *Carrie* or *Heathers* (no one ends up dead, although someone does get hit by a bus), but it is definitely one of those “high school is hell for girls” musicals that teaches a lesson about how to treat others (which is, “as you would like to be treated,” of course). https://coolcleveland.com/2024/10/theater-review-mean-girls-playhouse-squar…
