by Natalie Jennings via NEohioPAL 31 May '16

31 May '16

MOON FARM ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS: SUMMER THEATRE CAMP - WORKSHOP by Camp We-Create It's here everyone! Camp We Create. Work with award winning artist, actor and musician Craig Jennings. Craig has been traveling the world creating, coaching and performing characters who sing with Cirque du Soleil for the past seventeen years. As co-founder of Camp- We-Create, Craig would like to invite a small group of talented young actors on a theatrical journey. This summer we will use the same acting techniques used by Craig while working on such stages as the Royal Albert Hall in London to the Tokyo dome in Japan. First and foremost, we want our camp to be fun. Our aim is to provide a summer program which comes from a place of play and self discovery. Confidence, creativity, focus, teamwork and problem solving are all benefits of the theatre. Acting classes can help teach life skills to children who explore the stage. It's our greatest delight to share these techniques as we're looking forward to a fun, theatrical summer with an enthusiastic group of talented young artists. *Camp begins June 13th Monday-Friday 9am-4pm (11 weeks) *$225 a week *We are excited offer a 10% discount to campers who book 3 or more weeks. *20% discount for campers booking the entire 11 week workshop. *$25 discount a week for additional family members.

THREE TALL WOMEN by Edward Albee now onstage at convergence-continuum
by convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL 31 May '16

31 May '16

EDWARD ALBEES THREE TALL WOMEN NOW ONSTAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM "an undeniably affecting emotional core and a shimmeringly black sense of humor" (New York Times) Our modern American classic for this season earned a Pulitzer and three Best Play awards for 1994. Edward Albee has, in THREE TALL WOMEN, created a masterwork which follows a feisty 92-year-old womans reflections on her family, now departed or estranged, and how it has shaped her life - a life filled with a mixture of shame, pleasure, regret, and satisfaction. The three women are 92, 52 and 26 years old. At one point they are three different women, but eventually they seem to merge into the same women at three different stages of her long and tumultuous life. THREE TALL WOMEN is directed by Tom Kondilas, and features Lucy Bredeson-Smith, Teresa McDonough and Sarah Kunchik. THREE TALL WOMEN runs Thurs-Sat at 8 pm through June 11 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 at http://convergence-continuum.org and 216-687-0074. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This production is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, and by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.

by via NEohioPAL 31 May '16

31 May '16

Auditions for The Taming of the Shrew are on June 21-22 at 7:00 pm at Community Connections, 2381 South Locust Street (Rear), Canal Fulton, Ohio Two sisters, one a sweet innocent girl, while the other is an obnoxious, demanding, and unpleasing person. The problem is that the sweet, innocent girl is the youngest and the only way she can wed one of her many suitors is to get someone to marry her older obnoxious sister. That problem is compounded when no one, and I mean no one, wants the honor of taking the older sister’s hand in marriage. That is until one of the suitors remembers that there is an obnoxious and demanding man who lives in the hinterlands. The suitors summon this unlikely person to come to tow...n and woo the older sister, who is very determined to spurn his advances. Thus, in a nutshell, is the plot to The Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare. The Canal Fulton Players will be holding auditions on June 21 and 22 at Community Connections, 2381 South Locust Street (Rear), Canal Fulton, Ohio for this absolutely raucous comedy which will be performed on August 20-21, 27-28 on the St. Helena III.

CALLING ACTORS - TOMORROW NIGHT - Manhattan Project Meet & Greet
by Manhattan Project via NEohioPAL 31 May '16

31 May '16

Between 1942 and 1945, J. Robert Oppenheimer gathered the most brilliant minds of the age at Los Alamos, New Mexico to create something awesome and terrible. The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab seeks to do the same for the Cleveland stage. Fresh New Faces in the Bunker Cleveland's showcase for never before seen plays has three new playwrights writing for us. We're thrilled to introduce Jaclyn Czifranics, Tim Collingwood, Monica Morgan, and Jacob Wiker. We're also happy to be joined by one of our favorite playwrights, Yulia Gray. We need brave actors to perform in these brave playwrights' awesome and terrible new plays! Join us at our Meet & Greet <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…> at Mahall's <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…> (13200 Madison Ave. <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…>) on Wednesday, June 1 at 8:00pm. Performance <http://facebook.us8.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7…> will be Wednesday, June 29! We hope to see you there. What exactly is The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab? The Manhattan Project is a low-stakes, nonthreatening place for actors and playwrights to meet and work together. Based on the Theatre Lab model taught at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama and inspired by The Brooklyn Generator in New York, The Manhattan Project wants to introduce Cleveland actors and playwrights to each other by organizing a bi-monthly production of brand new 10-minute plays. Participating artists will meet early in the month and will be broken into teams, each with one playwright. The playwright will then be given a writing prompt to write a new 10-minute play based on the prompt and including all the team's actors. The rest of the evening the team members will get to know each other and get a feel for each other's skills and voices. The teams will reconvene later in the month to perform these plays for each other. These 10-minute plays are not an end in themselves. Through these small collaborations we hope to build relationships between the two most vulnerable artists in theatre; the actors who put themselves on stage and the playwrights who pour themselves onto the page. Perhaps these 10-minute plays will grow into longer works or maybe these collaborations will become partnerships on larger projects. If you'd like to participate, please RSVP at TrinityCrater(a)gmail.com or introduce yourself at out next event. *Some additional notes on the play lab:* - In the spirit of shoe-string theatre, these 10-minute plays should have a budget of $0.00. - Playwrights will be directing the plays, or an actor from the team can volunteer to do so. - It's up to each team to schedule rehearsals together. Based on experience, it shouldn't take more than 3-4 hours of rehearsal time to get these plays on their feet. - Playwrights are invited in advance of the Meet & Greet. - *Playwrights are invited based on participation in past Manhattan Project events, so please come to our events so we can get to know you!*
