Dobama Emerging Artist Program - Accepting Applications - May 1 Deadline
by Darius Stubbs 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Dobama Theatre is accepting applications for the Dobama Emerging Actors Program. DEAP is a process-centered and technique-based program for serious young actors from high school freshmen to college seniors. DEAP students work with faculty, guest artists, and master teachers with extensive professional experiences. Classes, rehearsals and the culminating workshop performance are centered on ensemble building, character development, storytelling and communication, and text analysis. The DEAP ensemble performs in blackbox style, stripping away elaborate sets and costumes so that students and audience members are left to focus on the work of the actors on stage. There is a tuition for this program to cover courses, workshops, and production fees. However, NO STUDENT WILL BE TURNED AWAY DUE TO FINANCIAL OBSTACLE! *Financial aid up to 100% of the cost of tuition is available.* Full tuition for DEAP is $1200 per student. WHAT: Dobama Emerging Artist Program WHEN: July 5th - 8th: 10a to 4p July 11th - 15th: 10a to 4p July 18th - 22nd: 10p to 4p July 25th - 27th: 12p - 4p July 28th - 31st: 6:30 call, 7:30 performance WHERE: Dobama Theatre, 2340 Lee Road, Cleveland Heights, 44118 Apply HERE <https://forms.gle/yYjDWSLKmdCGQUEQ7>: https://forms.gle/yYjDWSLKmdCGQUEQ7 Applications must be received by *May 1, 2022*.

ENTERTAINMENT NEEDED FOR 2022 HOMELESS STAND DOWN
by Tania Benites-Galvez 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Each year, the Homeless Stand Down event is held to provide services and a day of respite for the homeless veterans of Northeast Ohio. This year it is on: Saturday, April 23 from 10-2:00 at Browns Stadium Here is a link to learn more: BVU Volunteer Center | 2022 Homeless Stand Down (bvuvolunteers.org)<https://volunteerconnect.bvuvolunteers.org/homelessstanddown> I have worked in the children's area to watch over little ones while their parents chat with some of the service agencies. We have found a pattern of not a lot of children attend or else are kept with their parent so this year is going to be different. In fact, a first in many ways: First time in April (the usual date is January/February but with COVID restrictions we waited to be sure we could gather in person) First time at First Energy/Browns Stadium (we will be using the first floor concourse area, which encircles the entire stadium) First time to have a broader offering of entertainment (not just a children's area) And this is where, hopefully, you come in! Because there will be a circular flow, we thought we could offer some entertainment that would either be stationary in one of the open areas or else move about to where a line has formed. (Everyone will enter through one gate and work their way around to the exit but there's no telling where holdups may occur.) I was wondering if you might be available to read your book, share some of your terrific stories, visit with folks in line, something else? I'll be honest and tell you that your performance would be out of the goodness of your heart as I have no budget although we expect around 1,500 guests and I'm guessing almost as many volunteers. I have many time slots open for you to choose ½ hour, 1 hour, however long you choose. Do you think you could join us? Do you have suggestions for other entertainment? Please send all inquiries to SKIRSCHNER(a)cuyahogalibrary.org<mailto:SKIRSCHNER@cuyahogalibrary.org> Thank You for Your Time and Consideration, Sue Sue Kirschner Youth Literacy and Outreach Manager Cuyahoga County Public Library Administrative Offices 2111 Snow Road / Parma, Ohio 44134-2728 p 216.749.9533 / f 216.485.9851 cuyahogalibrary.org<http://www.cuyahogalibrary.org/>

PREVIEW just $10 for Steve Martin's Meteor Shower at Beck Center
by Julie Gilliland 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Meteor Shower Beck Center Premieres Steve Martin's Dazzling Comedy Preview tickets are just $10 this Thursday, March 31. Get your tickets at beckcenter.org<https://beckcenter.na.ticketsearch.com/sales/salesevent/12987> Lakewood, OH-Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org> is ecstatic to announce the regional premiere of Steve Martin's Meteor Shower.<https://beckcenter.squarespace.com/shows/meteorshower> Written by actor, comedian, author, playwright, screenwriter, producer, musician, and Renaissance Man Steve Martin, this wild and crazy play pulls back the curtain on two married couples and the extreme transformation they experience when the sky is the limit. You'll have a burning desire to find out what happens next. Unexpectedly fresh and stamped with Martin's trademark wit, Meteor Shower began at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego in 2016 and premiered on Broadway in 2017. Meteor Shower starred Keegan-Michael Key, Laura Benanti, Jeremy Shamos, and Amy Schumer, who was nominated for a Tony Award for her role. Meteor Shower was met with high praise. Deadline calls it "one of the funniest, and wildest, games of social and sexual one-upsmanship," and Towleroad states, "Martin, a genius comedian himself, whips up a gleeful pastiche of tropes recognizable to fans of his '90s heyday." Beck Center Artistic Director Scott Spence<https://www.beckcenter.org/about/leadership> says: "Steve Martin is not only a "wild and crazy guy" but also a wild and crazy playwright! On the surface of his plays things look normal enough, but he loves nothing more than to mess with both time and space, and on top of that, toss in the wildly improbable. He is always the master of the unexpected, and that's one of the many reasons I love working on his plays. Oh yeah...and he's just flat-out funny too!" Beck Center's production of Meteor Shower<https://beckcenter.squarespace.com/shows/meteorshower> stars Lara Mielcarek* as Corky, Abraham Adams* as Norm, Leilani Barrett* as Gerald, and Leslie Andrews as Laura. (* Denotes Member of Actor's Equity Association.) Set design is Cameron Michalak, costume design by Inda Blatch-Geib, sound design by Angie Hayes, lighting and projection design by Tim Chrisman, and stage management by Jamie Benetto. This limited engagement of Meteor Shower<https://www.beckcenter.org/shows/meteor-shower> runs April 1 to May 1, 2022 in the Studio Theater as part of the Professional Theater Season. Buy early and save with promotional code STARS to receive $5 off each adult/senior ticket purchased by March 25. Curtain times are 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:30 p.m. Sundays.
