Opening of SWEAT at Baldwin Wallace University
by Nelia Rose Holley 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

*See SWEAT * *By: Lynn Nottage* *Directed by Nathan Henry * *at Baldwin Wallace this week! * When: This week, March 20th-24th! Where: Baldwin Wallace-Kleist Black Box 95 E Bagley Rd, Berea, OH 44017 Time: Wednesday- Saturday at 7:30, and Sunday at 2:30! Ticket prices may vary. You won’t want to miss this amazing show! Link to tickets: https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?ticketing=bdwun Sweat won the Pulitzer Prize in 2017 as well as 3 Tony nominations and is written by one of America’s most important playwrights. In one of the poorest cities in America, Reading, Pennsylvania, a group of down-and-out factory workers struggle to keep their present lives in balance, ignorant of the financial devastation looming in their near future. Based on Nottage’s extensive research and interviews with residents of Reading, Sweat is a topical reflection of the present and poignant outcome of America’s economic decline. “From first moments to last, this compassionate but clear-eyed play throbs with heartfelt life, with characters as complicated as any you’ll encounter at the theater today, and with a nifty ticking time bomb of a plot.” –the New York Times. Sincerely, Nelia Rose Holley (She/Her)

REQUIEM @ Cleveland Public Theatre
by Roy Berko 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: REQUIEM is a play that is neither easy to understand nor to immediately grasp its meaning. It takes a while of after-thought and some mulling over what one has just experienced to gain self-awareness. It is not a play for anyone who goes to the theatre for pure entertainment. This script and production are not entertaining in the normal sense. As with all existential theatrical experiences, it takes work to not only sit through the production, but allow yourself time to gain its message.* *To read the entire review go to: *https://royberkinfo.blogspot.com/ *To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: * https://clevelandtheaterreviews.blogspot.com/ *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*
