Swingin' Holiday Shindig Friday, December 9th at the Lakewood Masonic Temple
by Valerie Salstrom via NEohioPAL 04 Dec '16

04 Dec '16

The Lakewood Masonic Temple swing dance at 15300 Detroit Avenue is the longest running swing dance in the Cleveland area. Amazing live music and DJs have been keeping everyone's toes tapping the second Friday of every month since before 1998. We have one of the biggest swing dances in the area with over 150 people attending each month. Attendees have a variety of dance experience (including none) and come from all walks of life and ages. You will not need to bring a dance partner. We rotate partners during the dance lesson. How often do you get to meet 50-100 new people in under an hour? We provide the highest quality swing dance instruction from some of the nicest, most patient people you will ever meet. Our staff includes regional, national and international swing dance competitors (and winners) in multiple swing dance forms. We are offering a little discount on the price of admission for the December 9th dance. Dances are usually $12 per person, but this month we are only charging $10 per person and $5 for first timers. From 8-9pm Get Hep Swing instructors, Loreto Agdinaoay and Corrie Holliday will be teaching a beginner friendly, jitterbug lesson. Remember, you do not need a partner. Loreto aka Lo, will begin the night of DJed music and Corrie will finish up the evening. We have a very special surprise planned for this event so be sure to arrive by 9:15 at the latest or you may miss it. You won't want to miss it. Trust me. We welcome anyone to join us who has an interest in dance, music, socializing and fun. We don't care what your physical ability or size is, where you are in life, where you are on the spectrum of sexual or gender orientation, what color or creed, or non-creed, you are. Are you a man who wants to learn how to follow or a woman who wants to learn how to lead? That's cool! This idea is not new to the swing dance scene. We are the easiest club to join. If you have an interest, you are in. :) We love spreading the gospel of swing dancing and we are excited to share the language and culture of this truly American, urban folk dance form with you. It is important for us to let you know that this dance style started in the African-American ballrooms of Harlem, New York in the late 1920s/early 1930s. This dance has a gritty earthiness that is incredibly empowering and joyful. We can't wait for you to experience this conversation of dance with us. Attire is anything from casual to dressy. The best shoes to wear are comfortable and will allow you to pivot and turn easily. We make learning to partner dance easy and enjoyable. Please join us on Friday, December 9th and see for yourself. Please see www.GetHepSwing.com for the most up to date information on dances, bands playing at the dances, classes, private lessons, school programs, and special topic workshops. For more info, please email Valerie Salstrom; the owner of Get Hep Swing, at info(a)gethepswing.com

Review of Beck Center's "The Little Mermaid"
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 04 Dec '16

04 Dec '16

Beck Center’s ‘The Little Mermaid’ a buoyant fish-out-of-water tale Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics A few months ago, several blogs reported that people in possession of "Black Diamond Collection" Disney VHS tapes might have thousands of dollars' worth of rare materials on their hands. “The Little Mermaid” was identified as one of the most valuable and sought after commodities in the eBay marketplace. Unfortunately, like most of the mint-condition Beanie Babies and unopened packs of Pokémon cards we’ve been hoarding, Disney VHS’ are worth only the price of purchase. Cheer up. The Beck Center for the Arts’ production of “The Little Mermaid” is worth far more than the cost of admission. For more of this review, go to www.clevelandjewishnews.com/columnists/.
