---------------------------- FINAL PERFORMANCES! The glamour and glitz of the golden age of film... Cleveland State University Department of Theatre and Dance proudly presents BY THE WAY, MEET VERA STARK Final Weekend - April 27-30, 2023 The Helen Theatre, Playhouse Square Written by Lynn Nottage Directed by Sheffia Randall-Nickerson Tickets $5-$15<https://www.playhousesquare.org/events/detail/by-the-way-meet-vera-stark> CAST: Aidan Callahan (Von Oster / Brad), Zoë Frager (Anna Mae), Nicholas Hassan (Slasvick / Peter), Cassandra Miller-Myers (Vera Stark), Kat O’Donnell (Gloria), Trinity Thomas (Lottie), Quinton Turpin, Jr. (Leroy / Herb) BY THE WAY, MEET VERA STARK is a seventy-year journey through the life of Vera Stark, an African American maid and budding actress, and her tangled relationship with her boss, a white Hollywood star desperately grasping to hold on to her career. When circumstances collide and both women land roles in the same Southern epic, the story behind the cameras leaves Vera with a surprising and controversial legacy scholars will debate for years to come. In this new comedy from the Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright of Ruined, Lynn Nottage draws upon the screwball films of the 1930s to take a funny and irreverent look at racial stereotypes in Hollywood.
