When it comes to the weekend, I typically don’t need an excuse to go out and explore. Honestly, I’d say my biggest problem is forcing myself to stay home and do things around the house that need to get done (like this weekend’s project: clean the garden). Because of this,…
This coming Fall, the Cleveland Play House will be making a huge move from its home for the last 84 years at 8500 Euclid Avenue to PlayhouseSquare’s newly transformed Allen Theatre. The year-long, $30 million-plus transformation of the historic movie palace just hit its halfway point earlier this month. And…
Last week Scott and I saw My Name is Asher Lev at The Cleveland Play House, which used a three person cast playing multiple characters to tell an intimate story about a man’s struggle between his Hasidic roots and the Manhattan art world. Another show on stage right now in Cleveland…
Religion and art can simultaneously be two of the most unifying and polarizing topics between people. This is because – unlike other heated subjects such as politics or your favorite sports team – the two have become about much more than beliefs and opinions. They’ve seen entire cultures and ways…

With only one week until set up day for Jump Back Ball, saying it’s crunch time would be an understatement. Over the last month, members of Partners have met a couple times each week in the Hanna Building, putting together the decorations for the event. Since the first Shop Night…
So much has been written about the concept of home and what it means to each person. For me, it’s a place where I feel both comfortable and challenged, and I’ve spent the last 10 or so years trying to find that place. I lived in other cities before…
If you’ve followed Clue Into Cleveland for a while, you know I’m a theatre junkie. I love seeing and writing about productions at PlayhouseSquare, Cleveland Public Theatre, Great Lakes Theatre Festival, and Cleveland Play House. In fact, I’m looking forward to seeing The Trip to Bountiful tonight. However, in addition…
A couple people have asked about how to get tickets now that Jump Back Ball has sold out. Although the only tickets I have are the two @ScottHicken and I will be using, Metromix Cleveland and wkyc are sponsoring a contest where two winners will get a pair of tickets…
