The Art of Engagement, Part 3: Great Lakes Theater
After I moved to Cleveland, the first theatre company I fell in love with was Great Lakes Theater at PlayhouseSquare’s Hanna Theatre. Providing a nice complement to Cleveland Play House’s contemporary plays, GLT most often focuses on classic theatre – having its roots in Shakespeare when John Lithgow’s father helped found it 50 years…
Cirque du Soleil's Dralion and a Valentine's Day Discount
Confession time: I have a “Performing Arts Bucket List.” Yep, I’ve managed to combine my obsession for making lists with being a theatre fangirl. One of the items I have yet to cross off: Cirque du Soleil. This Spring, I’m excited to finally experience one of their shows when Cirque du Soleil’s Dralion comes to the Wolstein Center, April…
Event Recap: Great Big Home and Garden Show
I have the tendency to go a bit crazy when thinking about home improvement. Don’t get me wrong – I love our house. But although I thoroughly enjoy some of the vintage touches like the laundry chute and milk bottle delivery box, there are a number of updates on our to-do list which can get overwhelming…
Look Behind the Looking Glass, Part 3: Shop Nights
Although Jump Back Ball has sold out, the work has just begun for PlayhouseSquare Partners. One reason I love Jump Back Ball is that even before Scott and I get to party on February 25th, we’re having fun throughout February at Jump Back Ball Shop Nights. Shop Nights are a unique opportunity to get…

The Art of Engagement, Part 2: Near West Theatre

Jump Back Ball 2012, Part 1: A Look Behind the Looking Glass
Before joining PlayhouseSquare Partners, I used to hate this time of year. I’d get all pumped up by the craziness of the holidays; and then once January hit, it was like popping a balloon…instant deflation as the pace of things abruptly came to a halt. Now this time of year means one thing:…
