In Sync PR info
by Stephen Markwei 17 Oct '21

17 Oct '21

Hello Sir/Madam, As the Publicity Coordinator for the Dance Department at Case Western Reserve University, I am pleased to provide the information for this Fall's Concert, In Sync. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you. Best Regards, Stephen. In Sync, Fall 2021 The Department of Dance at Case Western Reserve University celebrates movement and innovation by leading off the 2021-22 season with In Sync, a collection of new and revisited dance works. In Sync will be performed October 29 and 30, November 4, 5, and 6 at 8 p.m. and October 31 at 2:30pm at Mather Dance Center, 11040 Bellflower Road, on the Case Western Reserve campus in University Circle. In Sync features the newest production of Les Noces by Pascal Rioult, the return of Pam Tanowitz’s Like Fragments from an Old Song, as well as the premiere of Ubi Sunt by department chair Karen Potter. A 2019 audience favorite Brothers by Gary Galbraith will also return, along with the premiere of the companion piece Sisters. Les Noces, by two time recipient of the Choo-San Goh Award for Choreography Pascal Rioult, is a sexually charged deconstruction of the marriage ritual, infusing the strong structural composition with provocative movement and unabashed energy. Pam Tanowitz’s Like Fragments From an Old Song is set to and inspired by Broad and Free, a composition for violin and piano by contemporary composer Caroline Shaw. The work was created during Tanowitz’s eight day CWRU residency in 2019 and explores fragmented movements woven together by the dancers’ connectivity and intuition, with an homage to the history of Mather Dance Center. Created by chair of the department Karen Potter, Ubi Sunt is a somber dance for 10 women that was loosely inspired by the sadness endured when losing a loved one. Brothers, premiered in 2019 by Galbraith, showcases 7 of the men of the dance department. Set to the music of Barbatuques, Brothers brings forward a camaraderie among the men in a highly rhythmic and dynamic field of motion. Drawing from the strengths of the men, this dance has a tribal quality yet remains a contemporary, communal ensemble. Also on the program is the premiere of Sisters, the companion piece to Brothers, thus completing the Sibling series. Like Brothers, Sisters features a cast of 7 women and shares the same kind of tribal and primitive feeling yet remains contemporary. Utilizing the driving score by Mikkael Karlsson, Sisters is a celebration of the communal power and strength of women. Tickets are $10 for students, $12 for seniors age 60+ and CWRU personnel, and $15 for general admission. Student discounts are not available for the November 6 performance. Reservations open on October 4th, and may be made by calling (216) 368-5246 or online at dance.case.edu/reservations.**Increasing COVID-19 cases within Northeast Ohio have prompted Case Western Reserve to resume its requirement that masks be worn indoors. In addition, only those who are fully vaccinated (two weeks past their final dose) should attend any campus event. Leaders continue to monitor pandemic developments and may need to adjust health protocols further as circumstances warrant. In-person is subject to change based on COVID-19 guidelines.**

Berko review: THE TEMPEST @ Great Lakes Theater
by Roy Berko 17 Oct '21

17 Oct '21

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *CAPSULE JUDGMENT: THE TEMPEST is not one of Shakespeare’s great plays, but, with the right production it can make for a positive classical theater experience. Multi-award-winning Director Sara Bruner, who is a master of staging the Bard, unfortunately was not up to her usual superb level in guiding this production.* *To read the entire review go to: **www.royberko.info* <http://www.royberko.info/>*. ** To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: **www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com* <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com/> *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*

URGENT: Short Film in search of Key HMU artist
by Jessie Ng 14 Oct '21

14 Oct '21

The short film, Lunchbox, is in search of a Key HMU artist and an additional HMU artist ASAP! *Synopsis* Lunchbox is a dramatic, three-part, coming-of-age short about regret, healing, and honoring the people we love. Using her deceased immigrant mother’s recipe book, Taiwanese American Shirley makes zongzi, turnip cake, and hand-pulled noodles. As she cooks, each dish evokes a childhood memory in which she grows progressively older and more distant from her Taiwanese culture and mother. When Shirley’s assimilation efforts culminate in her election to the Homecoming Court, a mistake by Shirley’s mother humiliates her, eliciting cruel words Shirley can never take back. Based on a true story, this retelling examines the personal cost of fitting in as well as the recovery from cultural and familial loss. *Location: Cleveland, OH * (Open to anyone in the area who can drive to Cleveland. We can provide hotel and gas reimbursement.) *Key HMU* Dates: 10/16-10/20 (5 days) Rate: $1000 flat + kit rental *Additional HMU* Dates: 10/16-10/18 (3 days) Rate: $525 flat We're also open to a MU artist and a hairstylist team.

Documentary Playwriting Workshop with Christopher Johnston
by Playwrights Local 14 Oct '21

14 Oct '21

Playwrights Local <http://www.playwrightslocal.org/> & Literary Cleveland <https://www.litcleveland.org/> Present Just the Facts, Man: Documentary Playwriting Workshop With Christopher Johnston Info/Registration <https://www.litcleveland.org/classes-workshops/just-the-facts-man-documenta…> November 1, 8, 15, & 29 | December 6 & 13 Mondays 6:30 – 8:30 pm Presented remotely/online via Zoom $180 ($120 for Literary Cleveland members) As playwrights, we usually draw from real-life stories to create a narrative play. However, we can also do extensive research and interviews with people on which to build a documentary theater piece about a dynamic individual or a particular group or people, say veterans or victims of domestic violence. We have the option to create characters based on those interviewees or by using the subject’s exact words from an interview transcript in a verbatim piece. In this workshop, we’ll discuss the techniques necessary to research a topic and get comprehensive interviews from which to draw material or language for the docudrama. Each student will develop a shorter piece that can stand on its own or be developed into a one-act or full-length play. Registration at Literary Cleveland https://www.litcleveland.org/classes-workshops/just-the-facts-man-documenta… About the Instructor Christopher Johnston has written several docudramas based on extensive, in-depth interviewing, including Sexually Explicit Material about people's sexual experiences and beliefs at Cleveland Public Theatre, Ghosts of War about Vietnam veterans at Dobama Theatre, My Body is Blue about a victim of domestic violence at Dobama and convergence-continuum, and Live Bodies for Sale about human trafficking in Northeast Ohio at Playwrights Local. # # #
