THEATRE AUDITIONS FOR VIRTUAL DEVOTION TAKE PLACE NOV. 28 & 29 AT KENT STATE UNIVERSITY AT STARK Auditions open to students and community members (JACKSON TOWNSHIP, OH, Oct. 27, 2017) – Kent State University at Stark Theatre has announced open auditions for its second theatrical production of the season, Virtual Devotion by Eric Coble, a member of the Playwrights’ Unit at Cleveland Play House. Directed by Kent State Stark Associate Professor of Theatre and Theatre Director Brian Newberg, Virtual Devotion transports audiences to Armageddon. Three characters, Pete, Anne and Ruth – all members of a broken family – attempt to sell their faith to nonbelievers in various, and sometimes violent, ways, as a last-ditch effort to save souls, including their own. Through a series of ironic, laughable and most unfortunate events, all of the characters, including the returned Son of God, Jesus Christ, find one another on the Home Shopping Network selling religious artifacts. Now reunited, is it too late to stop the end of the world? Auditions for Virtual Devotion are open to everyone, including students and members of the community. Kent State Stark Theatre encourages diversity in casting. Auditions will be held at 6 p.m. Nov. 28 and 29 in the Fine Arts Theatre, 6000 Frank Ave. NW in Jackson Township. Roles are available for three men and three women. No children. Those auditioning may perform a prepared monologue, if they wish, and the director may also choose sides (selected scene excerpts). The production will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 23-24 and March 2-3 and at 2 p.m. Feb. 25 and March 4, when ASL interpretation will be provided. Rehearsals may begin Dec. 18-21; followed by a holiday break, resuming Jan. 3, and will occur five evenings a week until opening. Visit www.kent.edu/stark/theatre-auditions<http://www.kent.edu/stark/theatre-auditions> for more information about auditions for this production. Roles Pete: A televangelist who preaches violence against sinners, until he contracts the plague. Anne: A young telemarketer trying to raise funds to provide the book of Job to children in Sudan. Ruth: A cynical woman, until she sees the face of Ezekiel the prophet in her tapioca pudding. Jesus Christ: The returned Son of the Living God. Lil: A telephone confession operator (actor also plays the roles of Rach, Peg and Joy). Zach: A fabulous reverend for the Happy Halo ministry (actor also plays roles of Mark, Seth, Luke).

Weathervane Playhouse OPENS "A Christmas Carol: The Musical" tonight!
by Fred Gloor 24 Nov '17

24 Nov '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> Weathervane Playhouse to present A Christmas Carol: The Musical. Classic tale of true holiday spirit and redemption is our gift to you. AKRON - Ebenezer Scrooge and his ghostly encounters come to life in this lavish and thrilling musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol running November 21 - December 23 at Weathervane Playhouse. Show times are Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. ― except for Saturday, December 23, which is at 2:30 p.m., and Sundays at 2:30 p.m. There is no show on Thanksgiving (November 23). The daytime performances on November 21 and 29 as well as December 5 and 13 are currently sold out. Tickets are $20 for Adults and $16 for Children and can be ordered by calling the box office at 330-836-2626 or going to www.weathervaneplayhouse.com<http://www.weathervaneplayhouse.com>. This production is sponsored by a generous donation from The Weathervane Playhouse Volunteer Guild. Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. With an infuriated "Bah! Humbug!" Scrooge wants nothing to do with Christmas tidings and charitable giving - but he's forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts on Christmas Eve lead him through his own past, present, and future. Thanks to their guidance, Scrooge recognizes his faults and greets Christmas morning with a cheerful "Happy Christmas!" before spending the day reconnecting and sharing love with those that mean the most to him. Broadway heavy-hitters Alan Menken (Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Disney's The Little Mermaid, Little Shop of Horrors) and Lynn Ahrens (Ragtime, Seussical, Once on This Island) breathe fantastic new life into this classic holiday favorite. A Christmas Carol: The Musical is this season's second production in Weathervane's Emerging Artist Series featuring a multi-generational cast of performers. Chief Executive/Artistic Director, Melanie YC Pepe says of the show: "Whether we would like to admit it or not, there's a little Scrooge in all of us. It's easy to lose sight of the important things in life: time with those we love, gratitude for our blessings, and compassion for those in need. The magic of A Christmas Carol is in reminding us of these things, and helping us to remember to take care of ourselves and each other. In sharing this show, I hope that we can all honor Christmas in our hearts, and try to keep it all year."

We will announce the rest of our three-show season before the end of the year. At this time, the season runs from May – October, 2018.” While auditions are open to actors from throughout Northeast Ohio, the theatre will be based in Twinsburg, OH.
