FINAL WEEKEND TO SEE SURREAL DARK COMEDY "LIKE I SAY"THIS THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM LIKE I SAY is an unpredictable puzzle and a surreal and strangely comic whirlwind of a play with stories within stories, weird puppet shows, an Alpine zombie resort, and much, much more. A truly wild ride! A writer holed up in a seaside hotel is trying to overcome a tragic accident by teasing a story out of himself. He's joined by a wildly bizarre band of hotel staff and guests (a tattoo artist, a slow-moving handyman, two sinister Russian puppeteers, and the writer’s creation himself: Coconut Joe of Kokomo). The assembled band of misfits brings his weird and wondrous story to life, while creating a few wild ones of their own. LIKE I SAY is directed by Tyson Douglas Rand, and features actors Robert Branch, Robert Hawkes, Marcia Mandell, August Scarpelli, Linda Sekanic, Clyde Simon, Lauren B. Smith and Logan Smith. LIKE I SAY has its final three performances this Thurs-Sat at 8 pm through at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 seniors (65+), $10 students. Reservations and information at http://convergence-continuum.org [1]and 216-687-0074.
