All I Want for Cleve-mas, Part 1: Onstage This Holiday Season

  Each year, holiday preparations seem to start earlier and earlier (I was floored when I saw Christmas decorations on some shelves before Halloween). But although I’m not quite ready to bust out the decorations, I think it’s never too early to start planning my gift giving, as well as my own wishlist. Last…

Coming Soon to a Cleveland Theatre Near You…

In another life long long ago (err, 6 years ago) and far far away (Philly), I used to work in theatre.  Specifically, marketing, sales and a little bit of backstage production work (random factoid #352: I worked backstage on this show for almost 2 years when it was in Philadelphia).  So when Fall rolls around, I get excited…

Jak of All Trades Fest – Labor Day Weekend

When it comes to Cleveland success stories, the tale behind Jakprints is one of my favorites (here’s an article I love from last year’s Cleveland Scene). From seeing the need fellow musicians had for printed materials to developing a company that Harvard called one of “the top 100 U.S. companies…
