Seeking Assistant Director for May 2018 Production
by Playwrights Local 10 Jan '18

10 Jan '18

PLAYWRIGHTS LOCAL SEEKS AN ASSISTANT DIRECTOR FOR MAY 2018 WORLD PREMIERE ABOUT THE POSITION Playwrights Local (http://playwrightslocal.org/) seeks an Assistant Director to work with Jimmie Woody on a premiere production of a new play. ‘The Panther Dancer’ by Logan Cutler Smith runs for three weeks in Cleveland in May 2018, with rehearsals beginning in early April. This position receives a modest stipend. Reply with a cover email and resume to playwrightslocal(a)gmail.com. ABOUT THE DIRECTOR Jimmie Woody’s recent credits include ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’, ‘Clybourne Park’, and ‘Raisin in the Sun’ (Weathervane Playhouse); ‘The America Play’ (University of Akron); and ‘Glass Menagerie’, ‘For Colored Girls…’, and ‘Jitney’ at Cuyahoga Community College. Find his full bio at http://www.dobama.org/artists/2017/7/18/jimmie-woody. ABOUT THE PLAY >> ‘The Panther Dancer >> By Logan Cutler Smith >> Directed by Jimmie Woody >> Performances May 11 - 26, 2018 >> ‘The Panther Dancer’ is an innovative new play that digs deep beneath the iconicity of a childlike American star. A series of inventive, offbeat-but-affecting vignettes, this knowing satire explores how a monolithic entertainer was created by our culture and, in turn, how he redirected that culture towards his own conflicting ends. ‘The Panther Dancer’ follows a young wonder as he strives to become, in his own person, the very greatest show on earth. Tracing the arc of his campaign, the play becomes a playful synthesis of biography and tabloid journalism–a sidelong glance at a meteoric rise and a catastrophic fall. Come along for this portrait of a timeless pop archetype rendered flatly, mattely, and in fast-forward. Find more info on the play at http://www.playwrightslocal.org/the-panther-dancer/. ABOUT THE COMPANY Playwrights Local is a theater company based in Cleveland. Billed as a playwrights’ center, the organization’s goal is to provide a home for dramatic writing in Northeast Ohio. They offer classes and workshops, produce original plays, provide networking opportunities, and engage the community through outreach projects.

10 Jan '18

PREVIEWS THIS THURSDAY 1/11/17 NEWS RELEASE Media Contact: Fred Gloor Associate Artistic/Marketing Director Weathervane Playhouse 330.836.2626 Ext 16 fgloor(a)weathervaneplayhouse.com<mailto:fgloor@weathervaneplayhouse.com> December 22, 2017 Weathervane Playhouse to present Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill. Step back in time to relive one of Billie Holiday's final performances. AKRON - Weathervane invites playgoers to be transported to a seedy bar in Philadelphia during the year of 1959 to relive one of Billie Holiday's final performances, given four months before her death. More than a dozen musical numbers are interlaced with salty, often humorous, reminiscences to project a riveting portrait of the lady and her music. Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill is directed by Terrence Spivey, who ran Karamu House for over 12 years and was selected as Scene Magazine's Best Director of 2017. Ed Ridley, who most recently received a Cleveland Critics Circle Award for his music direction of Ain't Misbehavin', serves as the music director for this production. Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill runs January 11 through January 21, 2018 in Weathervane's Founders Theater. The show runs Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2:30 p.m. There is also one student matinee (recommended for high school students) on January 16th at 10 a.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 working at Weathervane and the production, Spivey says, "I am excited to be back at the wonderful Weathervane Playhouse, having directed their productions of Fences and The Great White Hope. Billie Holiday's music is as timely now as ever, touching the hardships and happiness that we all experience. Kudos to Melanie and Weathervane for bringing this dynamic and historical figure to the Akron stage."
