23 May '17

"There's a play going on now on the spacious second floor of the Reinberger Auditorium that you should pay attention to." "This risk-taking production is worth a look." *-- Scene <http://www.clevescene.com/cleveland/the-great-poet-wallace-stevens-who-work…>* PLAYWRIGHTS LOCAL PRESENTS The world premiere of a new play-with-music THINGS AS THEY ARE Written by David Todd Original score composed by Ben Chasny Directed by Anjanette Hall May 12 - 28, 2017 Reinberger Auditorium (Upstairs Loft) 5209 Detroit Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44102 http://www.playwrightslocal.org/things-as-they-are/ Performances Friday - Saturday at 7:30 pm and Sunday at 2:30 pm Half-price Preview Thursday, May 11 at 7:30 pm Half-price Industry Night Monday, May 15 at 7:30 pm Tickets $18 Adults | $15 Seniors & Groups | $12 Students For more information, visit playwrightslocal.org/ or call (216) 302-8856 Synopsis “Things as They Are” is a dramatic exploration of poet Wallace Stevens, a stoic visionary whose imagination and duality have lent him an unwavering mystique. This all-new work combines dramatic scenes, an original score performed by Ben Chasny (of the acclaimed group Six Organs of Admittance), and licensed works by Stevens with movement, commedia dell’arte, and projections. “Things as They Are” looks past the stock image of its subject as an aloof executive, revealing the “real” Wallace Stevens to be a man of great insight, whimsy, and desire.
