A DARKLY HUMOROUS FABLE ABOUT A VERY ANGRY MAN IN A NATION OF VERY ANGRY PEOPLE
HARM'S WAY BY MAC WELLMAN NOW ONSTAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM THURS-SAT THRU APRIL 15
Harm’s Way, the darkly humorous fable of an angry man on a rampage through a fantastical wilderness, follows the exploits of very angry Santouche as he tries to make sense of his understanding of law and order in a nation of other very angry people. Filled with Wild West and circus sideshow imagery, the action doesn’t unfold in any specific time or place. But all the characters drink from the same poisoned well, which is definitely American. It might be anytime in the last 70 years, or even – not impossibly – in the next.
Harm’s Way is directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic Director, Clyde Simon, and features actors Wesley Allen, Robert Branch, Gideon Lorete, Joseph Milan, Michael Regnier, Beau Reinker, Brian Westerley, Hillary Wheelock, Carrie Williams and Monica Zach. This is the seventh Mac Wellman play presented by convergence-continuum, having previously produced Sincerity Forever, 7 Blowjobs, Cleveland, Whirligig, A Murder of Crows and The Hyacinth Macaw.
Harm’s Way runs Thu-Sat at 8 pm through April 15 at convergence-continuum’s Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood.
