The play includes a number of parody songs sung to such tunes as “Let’s Do It (Let’s Fall In Love),” “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” “Johnny Angel”, and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You.” The play is a therapeutic examination of what it means to be a Browns’ fan – the torment, the doubt, and the disappointment, all wrapped up in a package of hope and optimism that, one day, it will all be worth it. *To receive a $5.00 off discount on tickets, enter this PROMO CODE DPFriend * *Hope to see you at Kennedy's Theater! * http://www.playhousesquare.org/events/detail/dawg-pounded-1 *Thank you,* *Rita Bigham*

Actress Needed for World War II short (Cleveland, OH)
by Colton Bose via NEohioPAL 14 Jul '15

14 Jul '15

The upcoming short film "The Silence of War" is filming on August 1st and is seeking an actress age 18-25 to play the film's female lead. "The Silence of War" is a drama set during World War II about an encounter between a US marine behind enemy lines and an AWOL Nazi medic. The role that is needed to be filled is that of the medic's wife. It is a speaking role, but the character speaks entirely in German. You don't need to know any German in advance (the lines will be pretty simple), but any prior experience with the language would be a huge plus. If interested, send an email to coltonmichaelbose(a)gmail.com with a headshot for more information.

When he becomes angry or scared, Wiggins repeats the word 'nyет', meaning *no* in Russian, and threatens to run away to Russia. · *Norman Bulansky* is a middle-aged man with mental disabilities who works at a doughnut shop. Eating doughnuts at his job has caused him to become overweight. His girlfriend, Sheila, lives at another group home. Bulansky is very proud and possessive of a large ring of keys. · *Lucien P.

He gets highly agitated over small things. This is partly because Barry has had a traumatic life growing up. Later in the story, when Klemper's abusive father visits him for the first time in years, it proves harmful to his mental condition. · *Jack Palmer* is the social worker for the four handicapped men. He's found himself increasingly burned out and is thinking about a new line of work. At the end of the play, Palmer leaves the men and becomes a travel agent. · *Sheila* is Norman's girlfriend.
