by Bette Lou Higgins via NEohioPAL 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

Join us for these two exciting programs -- EMMA GATEWOOD, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR BLOOMIN' MIND? and GALES OF NOVEMBER Find out if Grandma Gatewood <http://edenvalleyenterprises.org/progdesc/gatewood/gtwdinf.htm> was out of her "bloomin' mind" on Friday, November 6, 2015 at 7:30 p.m. when we present this one-act play at the CanalWay Center <http://www.clevelandmetroparks.com/Main/Facilities/Canalway-Center-2.aspx> of the Cleveland Metroparks at 4524 E. 49th St. in Cuyahoga Hts., Ohio. This one-act play by Kelly Boyer Sagert will feature Priscilla Kaczuk as Grandma Gatewood -- first woman to solo thru-hike the 2,050-mile Appalachian Trail in 1955 after raising 11 children and surviving domestic abuse. Robert Redford and Nick Nolte may have had a "Walk in the Woods", but Emma said that hiking the Appalachian Trail was NOT for sissies! Find out about her hike in this program that is open to the public at no charge. Come at 7 p.m. and enjoy some "Appalachian Trail" music performed by Foster Brown. Foster provided some of the musical background for our documentary, TRAIL MAGIC. For more information, call the park at 216-206-1000. (This play was originally presented under the title TRAIL MAGIC.) _____ Sailors on the Great Lakes know that the worst month is November.

Review of "First Love" at none too fragile
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

Intriguing ‘First Love’ offers life by the slice Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics The none too fragile theater in Akron contradicts its namesake by staging Charles Mee’s “First Love,” an all-too-fragile tale about falling in love for the first time. But this play is unlike the myriad of other stories that have tapped this evergreen theme. “First Love’s” Edith and Harold are mature, sophisticated, well-read adults who meet each other very late in life and after a lifetime of experiences. And through Mee’s surreal storytelling, all the iconic moments that make up the full cycle of a long-term romantic relationship – the first meeting, the first date, the first sex, the first fight, the break up and the reconciliation – are cleverly condensed into one scene in one act. Rather than showing us Edith and Harold experiencing these moments, the two pull memories from their past relationships and narrate each glorious step and each painful misstep as if reliving them. “I think what brings people together,” says Edith, “is their common humanity and what pulls them apart is their separate histories.” We witness both in a mere 90 minutes. It’s a bumpy ride. In his memoir, ''A Nearly Normal Life,'' Mee writes that his plays, like life, are “broken, jagged, filled with sharp edges, filled with things that take sudden turns, clinging to each other, smash up, veer off in sickening turns.” Such is “First Love” and director Sean Derry’s greatest contribution is allowing veteran actors Anne McEvoy and Robert Hawkes to navigate the rough terrain on their own terms and with little interference from obtrusive lighting, set and sound design.
