WOLVES opens this Friday, with buckets of gore, at convergence-continuum
WOLVES, A DARKLY COMIC, PREDATORY URBAN FAIRY TALE FOR ADULTS, OPENS THIS FRIDAY, MAY 8 AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM convergence-continuum presents the Ohio premiere of Steve Yockeys urban fable, WOLVES, a predatory fairy tale that involves sex and fear in modern culture, the comfort of lava lamps, and the dangers of a handy axe. WOLVES takes place during a long and eventful night at the apartment of Ben and his ex-boyfriend, now roommate, Jack. Ben, never the most stable of young men, has recently moved from a small town to the big city, where he harbors a full-blown paranoia about the place where he lives, which he thinks of as the deep, dark forest, and has an outrageous fear of the wolves that prowl it. To taunt the clingy, jealous Ben, and to prove that the city isnt what Ben imagines it to be, Jack brings home a wolf from a bar one night. Though a series of misunderstandings, things turn violent (that axe is involved) and its up to the determined and bitingly funny female narrator to guide us through to the end of this postmodern fracturing of the Red Riding Hood yarn. WOLVES is directed by convergence-continuums Cory Molner (MilkMilkLemonade, Based on a Totally True Story, etc.), and features company actors Beau Reinker and Eric Sever, and con-con newcomers Wesley Allen and Theresa Pedone. WOLVES opens this Fri, May 8 and runs Thu-Sat at 8 pm through May 30 at the Liminis theater, 2438 Scranton Rd. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 seniors (65+), $10 students. Reservations and information at http://www.convergence-continuum.org and 216-687-0074.
