OPENING THIS COMING FRIDAY, MARCH 29 AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM THE PRIDE BY ALEXI KAYE CAMPBELL DIRECTED BY JONATHAN WILHELM Convergence-continuum presents the OHIO PREMIERE of _The Pride _by Alexi Kaye Campbell, running March 29 – April 20._ _The time-bending play, the first in con-con’s 2019 Star-Crossed Season, interweaves the love stories of two similar couples separated by fifty years, each with very different outcomes. _The Pride _is a collage portrait of two parallel love stories, in 1958 and 2008, between two different couples, both named Phillip and Oliver. In 1958 Phillip, who is married to Sylvia, has an illicit affair with Oliver, which would have been considered a criminal offense if it were ever discovered. In 2008 a different Phillip and Oliver have the freedom to conduct their relationship in the open. But do they appreciate the freedom to be who they are - or even know what to do with that freedom? One play. Two stories. Three characters interweaving in time.
