Verbally Sassy & highly comedic.* About the Script: How far would YOU go to defend your family? Clay Stilts desires to fortify his house in preparation for both a new baby and the apocalypse he's convinced is just around the corner. His obsessions are sidetracked when a slowly escalating battle with a neighbor who refuses to curb his dog explodes in an impulsive act of violence. In one reckless moment, Clay's world spins out of control, becoming a microcosm for a global struggle against threats to our security, both real and imagined. *"Pelfrey is undeniably talented ... a gripping, funny play."* -Los Angeles Times *"Matt Pelfrey's galvanizing black comedy resembles those nightmares that nag at one's psyche the following day - too off-kilter to accept as reality, yet infused with imagery too haunting to dismiss ... Pelfrey's thought-provoking work is mesmeric from the first moment to the last."* -Backstage *"Pelfrey has a gift for oddball concepts and sardonic dialogue." -Variety * *"A brilliant little bulletin from the paranoia frontier."* -L A City Beat *Audition Details:* Show: Last of the Boys by Steven Dietz (Serio-Comedy) Director: Sean Derry Performance Dates: September 15th - September 30th (10 Performances) Rehearsal Dates: August 14th - September 14th (Sun., Mon.,Tues. & Thursdays) $$$$: AEA Special Appearance Contract Available / Non-AEA = $500 Stipend Already Cast Roles: Ben - Robert Branch Salyer - Rachel Lee Kolis Lorraine - Anne McEvoy Young Soldier - Nate Homolka *Needed Role: * *Jeeter - Male - 50's - White - Ben's friend & Salyer's boyfriend.* About the Script: Ben and Jeeter fought in Vietnam, and for thirty years they have remained united by a war that divided the nation. Joined by Jeeter's new girlfriend and her off-the-grid whiskey-drinking mother, these friends gather at Ben's remote trailer for one final hurrah at the turn of the New Millennium. As the night deepens, the past makes a return appearance, and its many ghosts come flickering to life. This is a fierce, funny, haunting play about a friendship that ends and a war that does not. *"Last of the Boys is to the Vietnam war what Angels In America **was to the AIDS crisis."* *—Talkin' Broadway*. *"Dietz has conjured the 1960s and the war in Vietnam better than any playwright has managed to date. Ghosts appear and disappear in this play…and these ghosts are in many ways permanent residents in the bodies and psyches of those who fought in the war, as well as those who became its indirect casualties. Their presence creates a restless, burning, grief-stricken quality—but it doesn't prevent the eruption of great bursts of pitch black humor; comic explosions that detonate from time to time as if someone had just tripped over a forgotten hand grenade."* *—Chicago Sun-Times*. *"Last of the Boys is shattering, and its careful revelations and haunting imagery stick with you long after you leave the theater."* *—Windy City Times*. *"Steven Dietz's new play is passionate, funny, altogether a knockout. The indictment of the war in Vietnam is intense and deeply personal…but the play is not a soapbox rant. LAST OF THE BOYS is about the way the past creates the present and the present repeats the past. The final image of Ben ironing an American flag is wrenching. If only we could get the wrinkles out."* *—Philadelphia City Paper*.

SingStark Event on April 19th
by via NEohioPAL 03 Apr '17

03 Apr '17

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Carol Olson colson(a)voicesofcanton.org 330-455-1000 Photo Available Upon Request April 3rd, 2017 SingStark! Announces Songs for April 19th, 2017 Event SingStark, a no-audition, no-commitment choir, will be singing ‘Down on the Corner’ by CCR, and ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ by Journey on Wednesday April 19th, 2017. SingStark is perfect for anyone who loves to sing and those who secretly love to sing in the shower and in the car. SingStark meets every third Wednesday of each month at The Canton Brewing Company, 227 Market Ave. N. How can you participate in SingStark? The first step is to #FindTheDoor to The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy and pay a five-dollar cover charge. The second step is to #JustSing. It is that simple. Inspired by similar groups such as Pop-Up Chorus in Durham, North Carolina, SingStark is an easy and fun way for would-be singers to enjoy singing with a group, but without the time commitment required from a traditional choir. Make some great Speakeasy memories at the Canton Brewery by singing together with friends to your favorite songs, while enjoying great beer dating back to the 1880s. P.J. Chavez, musician and educator, leads SingStark attendees each month in singing two popular songs. We will learn the songs and perform them the same evening. We record each performance and will post them on the SingStark YouTube channel. It is never the same group twice - meet new people, sing old and new songs! P.J. encourages people to come to SingStark, “When I think of the purpose of Sing Stark, I’m reminded of The New Seeker song “I’d like to Teach the World to Sing.” The lyrics say: “I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony. I'd like to hold it in my arms and keep it company. I'd like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand and hear them echo through the hills for peace throughout the land.” What a beautiful statement of what our world needs! So after a busy work day, in the middle of the week, take some time for yourself and SING! Let’s join hand in hand and make our song echo through the land!!! You Deserve It! I’ll see you there!” For more information, check out www.voicesofcanton.org/singstark. Also, follow us on facebook.com/singstark, or use search for @singstark on Twitter and Instagram. ###
