Family matriarch Stella rules over the family, but she is 85 years old, and her family smells their inheritance coming. Her younger daughter, Mary Jo, comes to visit for the day along with her husband, and their two daughters, prompting a family get-together. Mary Jo is deeply in debt and wants to divide the estate before her mother dies. Various members of the family, including the servants, take sides in the debate and wonder how much, if anything, there actually is to inherit. The family bickers as only a Southern family can, mentioning every slight and insult that has occurred over the past 80 years.

Second weekend for the critically acclaimed "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" begins tonight
by Fred Gloor 10 May '18

10 May '18

"This 1780s tale has some of the most fraught sexual tension I've seen played out on a stage, considering everyone's fully covered up by Jasen Smith's incredible period costumes" "Kern is most mesmerizing during a speech in which Merteuil talks about taking charge of her own sexual power at an early age." Kerry Clawson - The Akron Beacon Journal Read the entire review here: https://bit.ly/2I88PTg Sex, intrigue, betrayal, and revenge! Weathervane Playhouse brings Les Liaisons Dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons) to the stage. AKRON- in Choderlos de Laclos' Les Liaisons Dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons), two lovers conspire to ruin the reputation of a young innocent. As their games of seduction become more intricate, the stakes become higher than either could imagine. In 1782, Laclos' novel of sex, intrigue, and betrayal in pre-revolutionary France scandalized the world. Now Weathervane brings this tale of seduction and decadent morality amongst the wealthy aristocrats of pre-revolutionary France to the Founders Theater from May 3-20. Show times are Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 - $22 and can be ordered by calling the box office at 330-836-2626 or going to www.weathervaneplayhouse.com<http://www.weathervaneplayhouse.com>. On Thursday, May 10 Weathervane is hosting a "Parents Night." Parents can enjoy a night out to see the show and the kids will get to take a theatre class! Children ages 3-12 will enjoy different theatre games and activities with our professional Weathervane Instructors. Kids will check-in at 7:00 p.m. and check-out right after bows! One child is $10.00 and two is $15.00. Purchase your tickets for the show through our Box Office prior to registering your child. Director Craig Joseph says of the production, "I think the play is about how terrifying it is to love and be loved. How unsettling it can be. How it undoes us. And how we respond to that undoing - fighting against it or allowing ourselves to be remade into something new for the beloved. Although we initially revel, as audience members, in the naughty behavior, the story carries some pretty clear warnings and consequences for wickedness and folly." AUDIENCE ADVISORY: Les Liaisons Dangereuses contains adult themes and is therefore not suitable for young children. Les Liaisons Dangereuses is presented through special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc. The videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited.

FCC Wireless Update
by Carlton Guc 10 May '18

10 May '18

Greetings sound tech and wireless users/owners, You may have heard some noise about changes regarding RF Spectrum. A couple years ago we (wireless mic users) were knocked out of the 700Mhz frequency spectrum. This year (as of July 1st 2018) we will also be knocked out of the 600Mhz frequency spectrum. (604 or higher). Our industry will have 18 months to vacate the 600Mhz frequency spectrum or potentially be fined if our wireless interferes with other devices. While we have a bit of time to transition, you may already be experiencing additional RF issues as T-Mobile and other cellular carriers are already broadcasting in the 600mhz range. https://www.wirelessweek.com/news/2017/04/t-mobile-preps-record-breaking-60… We're now left with a range of 470-604 (TV Channels 2 through 36) of viable spectrum, which may seem like a lot, anyone who does frequency coordination will know that we're getting pretty crammed. Coordination has to take in account any local TV antennas, other broadcasting equipment in our spectrum, and combinations of frequencies that create interference. Older equipment is less tolerant of packing frequencies close together and so on. Most manufactures are offering trade in programs for equipment in the 600 range, and there is new technology that is available in the 2.4Ghz range (yes WiFi range, but with planning could net 12 to 20 RF microphones). Check with your local sound person and if you have questions, drop me a note. Regards, Carlton ______________________________________________________________________ Carlton Guc<https://www.carltonguc.com/> 440-724-9805 LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/in/carlton-guc-2512ba2/> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/carlton.guc>
