FINAL PERFORMANCES of Seat of the Pants' One Person Shows
by Craig Joseph 14 Aug '21

14 Aug '21

*You've only got two live opportunities and one online opportunity to catch THE ABSOLUTE BRIGHTNESS OF LEONARD PELKEY and APPLES IN WINTER - and look what critics are saying!* "All [nine] characters come to credible life thanks to Craig Joseph’s remarkable performance acumen. From the timbre of his various accents (New Joisey, Britain, Germany) to the detailed nuances of body language, his expressivity is riveting, at once fiery, poignant and not without a generous dose of edgy humor. He turns the playwright’s words into specific, tangible people with attitudes - funny, happy, frightened, angry, mournful - switching from one to the next with astonishing speed and precision." (Tom Wachunas, Artwach) "[Anne] McEvoy gives a brilliant performance as Miriam, who's alternately nervous, apologetic, funny and heartbreaking. Under the direction of Jamie Koeth, we feel the deep mourning of a loving mother through all of McEvoy's soulful performance." (Kerry Clawson, The Akron Beacon Journal) *THE ABSOLUTE BRIGHTNESS OF LEONARD PELKEY* *by James Lecesne* Directed by Abraham M. Adams Starring Craig Joseph @Malone University Theater Founders Hall 425 25th Street NW Canton, OH 44709 Saturday, August 14th at 8PM (in person) Friday, August 20th at 8PM (in person or all day online) Police detective Chuck DeSantis portrays every character in a small Jersey Shore town as he unravels the story of Leonard Pelkey, a tenaciously optimistic and flamboyant fourteen-year-old-boy who goes missing. A luminous force of nature whose magic is only truly felt once he is gone, Leonard becomes an unexpected inspiration as the town's citizens question how they live, who they love, and what they leave behind. *APPLES IN WINTER* *by Jennifer Fawcett* Directed by Jamie Koeth Starring Anne McEvoy @Akron Christian Reformed Church 50 Marshall Avenue Akron, OH 44303 Sunday, August 15th at 2PM (in person) Saturday, August 21st at 8PM (in person or all day online) Twenty-two years ago, Miriam’s son, Robert, committed a horrible crime while in the grips of withdrawal. He was caught, tried, and convicted of first-degree murder and has been sitting on death row ever since. In seven hours the state will execute him. As is the tradition, Robert is granted a last meal. His request: a slice of his mother’s apple pie. So now, Miriam is in the kitchen, caring for her son one last time. *Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at www.seatofthepants.org/productions <http://www.seatofthepants.org/productions>. ADVANCED PURCHASE IS RECOMMENDED, AS SEATING IS LIMITED>*

Parade of Flags at 75th One World Day
by Johnny Wu 13 Aug '21

13 Aug '21

Since 1945 the Cleveland Cultural Gardens Federation (CCGF) has celebrated One World Day exemplifying the theme of the Gardens: "Peace through Mutual Understanding." One of the most popular annual traditions is the Parade of Flags. The Parade of Flags is like the Olympics opening ceremony. People in colorful traditional costumes will carry flags of their heritage and march down MLK Blvd. from the Irish Garden toward the Italian Garden. One of each of their flags will be placed in a holder at the new Centennial Peace Plaza culminating in a striking and colorful example of Cleveland's ethnic diversity. The 75th annual One World Day in the Cleveland Cultural Gardens will be held on Sunday August 29, 2021 from 11 AM - 6PM on both East Blvd and MLK Boulevard. The Parade of Flags will step off at noon. One World Day was cancelled in 2020 because of the pandemic but pictures and videos from the 2019 Parade are at http://www.clevelandpeople.com/events/2019/owd-2019-parade.htm. The popular Parade of Flags promises to be the largest and most diverse parade in recent memory. CCGF President Dr. Wael Khoury is leading an aggressive effort to include nations in the Parade who are not yet represented by a Garden. Expect to see units from the Indonesian, Dutch, Brazilian, Japanese, Scottish and other communities marching in the Parade of Flags along with representatives of the 30 or so communities that already have a Garden. Not only will dozens of heritages be represented but a diverse group of TV personalities will serve as MCs for the Parade. We are honored to have Chris Tanaka (Ch. 19 anchor) returning as MC. This year we will also have Danielle Wiggins (Ch. 3 morning anchor), Tracy Carloss (Ch. 5 weekend anchor) and Maia Belay (Ch. 8 reporter) serving as co-MCs. That's the kind of respect and cooperation that One World Day generates. One World Day has been the official event of the Cleveland Cultural Gardens Federation since 1946. As always, it is free and open to the public and offers free parking. Attendees will have dozens of choices for cultural entertainment, ethnic food and drink, tours, demonstrations and shopping.
