A Toxically Satiric Portrait of American Life. - Washington Post Bootycandy, by the daring playwright Robert OHara, is a raucous, hilarious and very un-politically-correct satire about a young mans outrageous odyssey growing up gay and black in modern America in a wild series of ribald (nudity alert), disturbing, heartwarming and downright hysterical scenes from the 1970s to the present. Bootycandy takes a fearless and subversive look at attitudes toward sexuality in African-American culture in a range of ribald (nudity alert), disturbing, heartwarming and downright hysterical scenes from his childhood home, his church, dive bars and discos, motel rooms and even a nursing home. Bootycandy is directed by Terrence Spivey and features actors Wesley Allen, India Burton, Rochelle Jones, Michael May and Nate Miller. Bootycandy opens this Fri, March 25 and runs Thu-Sat at 8 pm through April 16 at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood.

Donations to Attend IMTA Convention
by Tytionna Williams via NEohioPAL 21 Mar '16

21 Mar '16

Hello, I am Tytionna Williams. I am an aspiring model, pursuing local, unpaid jobs for experience until just recently. Through Pro-Model and Talent Management I learned about the International Model and Talent Convention in New York. The convention could allow me to learn what it takes to become a professional model/actress while providing exposure for my career. I was highly rated by the IMTA Talent Scout and told that I have natural potential, and I was immediately accepted to attend the convention. However, the one week life changing trip will cost a total of $5,095.00, so I started a GoFundMe campaign. A donation of any variety helps, and for those who cannot donate, sharing my campaign is a huge service as I can have more people know about my problem and perhaps support me in reaching my dreams. I am incredibly hardworking and dedicated, and I don't want money to be the reason I can't achieve my dreams. Thank you for your time! The link to my campaign is https://www.gofundme.com/ITMAConvention If you wish to contact me for any reason my email is tytionnanmwilliams(a)gmail.com
