The Hunger Network, a nonprofit, tax exempt organization, is one of Cuyahoga County's largest emergency food providers, and has been working to end hunger and build a healthier community for over 25 years.

The final weekend of GRAND CONCOURSE, by Heidi Schreck is coming up, so you should definitely get your tickets now instead of waiting until the last minute. And - in the interim - check out this entry to our blog: actor Jonathan Rodriguez vulnerably shares about his circuitous path to becoming an actor.

At one time I was squatting 765 pounds “ass-to-grass”. [Football] was my way of life and a huge part of my identity. I graduated from Ohio State in 2017 with a degree in world politics.  One moment I’m taking a  photo with my family and with my degree in hand. The

All of our work is a wonderful collaboration between our 10 ensemble members and then dozens of guest artists over the course of the season. But what exactly does being an ensemble member mean? Scott Esposito unpacks that a bit in today's Seat of the Pants blog.

I’m happy to take on the administrative tasks, but what I’m most excited (and scared) about is the opportunity to produce and direct two of our Salon Series new play readings. I’ve never produced anything before and haven’t directed anything since I was in college (almost 25 years ago). I’...

FREE ACTOR WORKSHOP - November 13th!

Back by popular demand, we are hosting our second FREE scene study workshop on November 13th at 6:30pm at a location TBD in Cleveland.

We will explore a handful of tools and ensemble building exercises after which we will dive into utilizing those tools directly in scenework.

Those who submit for the workshop will be cast in a selected scene and assigned a scene partner. Those scenes will be distributed as soon as possible with additional information.

In order to submit for this workshop please complete the following:

1. Email [email protected] with your interest.
2. Submit a headshot and resume (if you have them, and if you do not, pass along a recent candid photo and a few lines about your experiences).
3. We'd love to hear what kind of work you're interested in pursuing. What is a role you've always wanted to play or a genre you'd love to explore? It's perfectly fine to say "I'm game for anything" too.

We take a good amount of time and care to find scenes that will push you or help you explore new aspects of your artistry. Because of that, and because of the nature of having a scene partner who will be dependent upon your attendance, we're asking for a deposit of $5 to hold your spot for this workshop. This deposit WILL BE REFUNDED to you upon your attendance at the workshop. If you don't show, we'll thank you for the donation.

Please make your $5 deposit via:
