Auditions for URINETOWN at Mighty Goliath Productions!
by auditions mightygoliath.com via NEohioPAL 23 Aug '15

23 Aug '15

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the "comedic romp" into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter. Mighty Goliath is unique in that we rehearse once a week on Friday night until tech week. Rehearsals begin October 30th. Performances are February 19, 20, 21, 27, and 28 at the Avon Lake High School PAC. What to prepare: 32 bars of a contemporary piece of music and tell us a joke. Bring sheet music in your key, an accompanist will be present, no a Capella please. Call backs on September 16th, by invitation only. For character breakdowns please visit: @[NjQyMTgzOTU5MjA4MTA3Omh0dHBcYS8vd3d3Lm10aXNob3dzLmNvbS9zaG93XGJkZXRhaWwuYXNwP3Nob3dpZD0wMDAyODA6Og==:http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000280] Questions: email auditions(a)mightygoliath.com

Review of "Tear It Off" at convergence-continuum
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 23 Aug '15

23 Aug '15

World premiere of ‘Tear It Off’ tears it up at con-con Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics A play within a play – that literary device where a story being told by a character closely parallels the life of that character – is nearly as old as literature itself. It’s been used by Shakespeare in “Hamlet,” by Chekhov in “The Seagull,” by Brecht in “The Caucasian Chalk Circle” and by local playwright Mike Geither in a new work called “Tear It Off,” which is getting its world premiere production by convergence-continuum. In “Hamlet,” the play being performed by a troupe of strolling actors mirrors the murder of Hamlet’ father, which the Bard uses to provoke Hamlet’s murderous uncle so as to “catch the conscience of the king." Geither has less lofty goals in mind. He’s going for laughs. Big ones. For the rest of this review, go to www.clevelandjewishnews.com/columnists/

Review of "Our Town" at Blank Canvas Theatre
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

Less is not more in Blank Canvas’ staging of ‘Our Town’ Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics There is an absolutely beguiling simplicity in the prose, structure and traditional staging of Thornton Wilder’s 1938 Pulitzer Prize-winning “Our Town,” currently in production at Blank Canvas Theatre. Because of this stark simplicity, “Our Town” has become a staple in countless high schools and community theaters. The writing is so good and the plain-folk characters are so clearly defined that the play can easily endure, and potentially benefit from, unrefined amateur performances of it. Professional productions tend to tweak the casting or context in order to add to the play’s poignancy, relevancy and theatricality. A recent off-Broadway revival went so far as to break Wilder’s minimalism mandate by introducing a realistic set in a scene where one of the dead revisits the living, in order to dramatically accentuate the divide between life and death. The tweaks performed for Blank Canvas’ rendition, under Patrick Ciamacco’s direction, are minor by comparison and of the subtle variety. They serve to make a simple production simpler still, with mixed results. For the rest of this review, go to www.clevelandjewishnews.com/columnists/
