We will achieve this mission by: *Reaching out to atypical venues in order to perform “portable” concerts of opera scenes and other vocal art music. *Educating audiences of all ages by presenting lecture recitals, which give the audience/performers an opportunity to connect with the text/history/theory behind classical music. *Programming unique operas, concerts, and revues with the aim of piquing the interest of the community. *Mining Cleveland’s rich community of artists and musicians who are equally committed to de-mystifying and revitalizing the traditional art music scene.

16 Apr '15

An American Family opens on June 19 with auditions on April 27-28 Life for Jack Van Wert, recently divorced at the age of sixty, and for Janice Loeffler, recently jilted at the altar at the age of twenty two, could not get any worse. However, on a fateful night, Jack, thinking he is going to meet a forty five year old woman on a blind date, and Janice, thinking she is going to meet a twenty eight year old man also on a blind date, come to Petra and Scott Thomas’ apartment for dinner only to discover that Scott got the days mixed up. Jack was supposed to be the next night and not that night. Furious over being matched together, they leave the apartment without dinner. When they cool off, Jack offers to buy Janice a sandwich at a local restaurant he frequents. What happens next starts as one character states in the play, a whole new life and a whole new relationship. This comedy which explores numerous modern social issues is written by David Van Gaasbeek. After his mother died in 2012, Mr. Van Gaasbeek to cope with the grief began writing a play based on a discarded improvisational skit in which a blind date is botched.

The play deals with various adult themes through comedy and parents are cautioned to contact Mr. Van Gaasbeek at 330-494-1022 or 330-854-4387 to discover if the issues are appropriate for their child. For those over the age of eighteen, be prepared to laugh as Jack and Janice go through some very interesting events in their lives as they and their families come to grip with the results of a botched blind date. The play will be presented at the SALT Box Ministries, 408 West Market Street, Canal Fulton, Ohio on June 19-21, 26-28. Auditions will be held on April 27 and 28 at Community Connections, 2381 South Locust Street, Canal Fulton, Ohio. The parts are: Scott Thomas, a young attorney in Jack Van Wert’s law firm Petra Thomas, Scott Thomas’ wife and a chef Janice Loeffler, a twenty two year old woman who is a teacher Jack Van Wert, a sixty year old man who is a civil rights attorney Helen Whiteside, a forty five year old divorce attorney Debra Van Wert, Jack Van Wert ex-wife Tom Van Wert, Jack and Debra Van Wert’s son Gretchen Van Wert, Jack and Debra Van Wert’s daughter Harry Loeffler, Janice Loeffler’s father Jeannette Loeffler, Janice Loeffler’s stepmother Lesly Morrison, Jack and Debra Van Wert’s granddaughter Blythe Morrison, Jack and Debra Van Wert’s granddaughter Kate Morrison, Jack and Debra Van Wert’s oldest daughter Roger Morrison, Kate Morrison’s husband Julie Fielding, Debra Van Wert’s secretary All people auditioning should be prepared to read from the script.

LA FILLE MAL GARDÉE Free Ticket Giveaway
by Andi Barnett via NEohioPAL 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

Fathom Events is offering the chance to win free tickets for LA FILLE MAL GARDÉE, the final transmission from their 2014/15 ROYAL BALLET CINEMA SEASON! This showing takes place on Tuesday, May 5 at Regal Crocker Park theatre at 7PM. Enter here for your chance to win - http://tinyurl.com/qzfezor Based on an 1828 French ballet of the same name and inspired by choreographer Frederick Ashton's love of the Suffolk countryside, LA FILLE MAL GARDÉE is one of the choreographer's most joyous creations. Laced with good humor as a whirl of dancing chickens, grouchy guardians and halfwit suitors take to the stage, Ashton's final full-length ballet incorporates some of his most virtuosic choreography to depict a charming, simple tale of boy meets girl. With elements of national folk dance incorporated throughout, from a Lancashire clog dance to a traditional maypole dance, this emphatically English work has remained a celebrated classic in The Royal Ballet's repertory since its successful premiere in 1960.
