That sense of community extends beyond the story itself. This year's cast includes multiple families performing together, with parents and children sharing the stage as part of the same company. The result is a production that reflects the very themes at the heart of Godspell: connection, mentorship, laughter, and the relationships that bring people together. Leading the company are Carson Reitz as Jesus and Benjamin Lowery as Judas. They are joined by an ensemble that brings together familiar WRP faces alongside performers making their Western Reserve Playhouse debuts. The company includes Rachael Armbuster, Amy Aust, Molly Aust, Nina Aust, Isaac Bauman, Shelia Baronwright, Amy Bodnar, Maeve Greising, Kate League-Weston, Maisie League-Weston, Connor Mast, Rose McMillan, Lauren Stepanski, and Isabel Valega. As Western Reserve Playhouse continues its commitment to community-centered theatre, Godspell serves as a fitting reminder of the power of gathering together. The musical's message of empathy, understanding, and shared humanity resonates just as strongly today as it did more than fifty years ago. Conceived and Originally Directed by John-Michael Tebelak. Music and New Lyrics by Stephen SchwartzOriginally Produced on the New York Stage by Edgar Lansbury, Stuart Duncan and Joseph Beruh.

Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991.

Godspell

25 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Western Reserve Playhouse
Friday, July 24, 2026, 8 – 10pm

Event type: Theatre & Stage
Event Summary: Western Reserve Playhouse, in Bath, presents an intergenerational performance of Godspell. This full-hearted musical asks - what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Filled with unforgettable songs including "Day by Day," "All Good Gifts," and “Bless the Lord,” the production offers an uplifting experience for audiences seeking laughter, inspiration, and connection. Godspell opens with a July 16 preview and runs through July 26. Performances take place Thursday through Sunday throughout the run. Seating is limited in WRP's intimate historic barn venue. Tickets and more information at thewrp.org or call (330) 620-7314., Western Reserve Playhouse is proud to announce the cast of Godspell, Stephen Schwartz's beloved musical that transforms a group of strangers into a community through storytelling, music, laughter, and acts of kindness. Since its premiere in 1971, Godspell has become one of the most beloved family musicals ever written, inviting audiences of all ages to participate in a theatrical experience that is equal parts celebration, comedy, and heartfelt reflection. Directed by WRP Education Director Emma Figge (Seussical the Musical, Spitfire Grill), with music direction by Robert Kowalewski (john & jen, Jekyll & Hyde) and choreography by Mayela Lucia Squires (The Outsiders, The Wild Party), this production embraces the playful spirit and ensemble-driven heart that have made Godspell a favorite for generations. Built around a powerhouse ensemble, this full-hearted musical asks: what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Through a series of parables, games, songs, and moments of connection, the show explores themes of compassion, forgiveness, joy, and belonging. That sense of community extends beyond the story itself. This year's cast includes multiple families performing together, with parents and children sharing the stage as part of the same company. The result is a production that reflects the very themes at the heart of Godspell: connection, mentorship, laughter, and the relationships that bring people together. Leading the company are Carson Reitz as Jesus and Benjamin Lowery as Judas. They are joined by an ensemble that brings together familiar WRP faces alongside performers making their Western Reserve Playhouse debuts. The company includes Rachael Armbuster, Amy Aust, Molly Aust, Nina Aust, Isaac Bauman, Shelia Baronwright, Amy Bodnar, Maeve Greising, Kate League-Weston, Maisie League-Weston, Connor Mast, Rose McMillan, Lauren Stepanski, and Isabel Valega. As Western Reserve Playhouse continues its commitment to community-centered theatre, Godspell serves as a fitting reminder of the power of gathering together. The musical's message of empathy, understanding, and shared humanity resonates just as strongly today as it did more than fifty years ago. Conceived and Originally Directed by John-Michael Tebelak. Music and New Lyrics by Stephen SchwartzOriginally Produced on the New York Stage by Edgar Lansbury, Stuart Duncan and Joseph Beruh.

Godspell

26 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Western Reserve Playhouse
Saturday, July 25, 2026, 8 – 10pm

Event type: Theatre & Stage
Event Summary: Western Reserve Playhouse, in Bath, presents an intergenerational performance of Godspell. This full-hearted musical asks - what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Filled with unforgettable songs including "Day by Day," "All Good Gifts," and “Bless the Lord,” the production offers an uplifting experience for audiences seeking laughter, inspiration, and connection. Godspell opens with a July 16 preview and runs through July 26. Performances take place Thursday through Sunday throughout the run. Seating is limited in WRP's intimate historic barn venue. Tickets and more information at thewrp.org or call (330) 620-7314., Western Reserve Playhouse is proud to announce the cast of Godspell, Stephen Schwartz's beloved musical that transforms a group of strangers into a community through storytelling, music, laughter, and acts of kindness. Since its premiere in 1971, Godspell has become one of the most beloved family musicals ever written, inviting audiences of all ages to participate in a theatrical experience that is equal parts celebration, comedy, and heartfelt reflection. Directed by WRP Education Director Emma Figge (Seussical the Musical, Spitfire Grill), with music direction by Robert Kowalewski (john & jen, Jekyll & Hyde) and choreography by Mayela Lucia Squires (The Outsiders, The Wild Party), this production embraces the playful spirit and ensemble-driven heart that have made Godspell a favorite for generations. Built around a powerhouse ensemble, this full-hearted musical asks: what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Through a series of parables, games, songs, and moments of connection, the show explores themes of compassion, forgiveness, joy, and belonging. That sense of community extends beyond the story itself. This year's cast includes multiple families performing together, with parents and children sharing the stage as part of the same company. The result is a production that reflects the very themes at the heart of Godspell: connection, mentorship, laughter, and the relationships that bring people together. Leading the company are Carson Reitz as Jesus and Benjamin Lowery as Judas. They are joined by an ensemble that brings together familiar WRP faces alongside performers making their Western Reserve Playhouse debuts. The company includes Rachael Armbuster, Amy Aust, Molly Aust, Nina Aust, Isaac Bauman, Shelia Baronwright, Amy Bodnar, Maeve Greising, Kate League-Weston, Maisie League-Weston, Connor Mast, Rose McMillan, Lauren Stepanski, and Isabel Valega. As Western Reserve Playhouse continues its commitment to community-centered theatre, Godspell serves as a fitting reminder of the power of gathering together. The musical's message of empathy, understanding, and shared humanity resonates just as strongly today as it did more than fifty years ago. Conceived and Originally Directed by John-Michael Tebelak. Music and New Lyrics by Stephen SchwartzOriginally Produced on the New York Stage by Edgar Lansbury, Stuart Duncan and Joseph Beruh.

Godspell

Western Reserve Playhouse
Sunday, July 26, 2026, 2 – 4pm

Event type: Theatre & Stage
Event Summary: Western Reserve Playhouse, in Bath, presents an intergenerational performance of Godspell. This full-hearted musical asks - what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Filled with unforgettable songs including "Day by Day," "All Good Gifts," and “Bless the Lord,” the production offers an uplifting experience for audiences seeking laughter, inspiration, and connection. Godspell opens with a July 16 preview and runs through July 26. Performances take place Thursday through Sunday throughout the run. Seating is limited in WRP's intimate historic barn venue. Tickets and more information at thewrp.org or call (330) 620-7314., Western Reserve Playhouse is proud to announce the cast of Godspell, Stephen Schwartz's beloved musical that transforms a group of strangers into a community through storytelling, music, laughter, and acts of kindness. Since its premiere in 1971, Godspell has become one of the most beloved family musicals ever written, inviting audiences of all ages to participate in a theatrical experience that is equal parts celebration, comedy, and heartfelt reflection. Directed by WRP Education Director Emma Figge (Seussical the Musical, Spitfire Grill), with music direction by Robert Kowalewski (john & jen, Jekyll & Hyde) and choreography by Mayela Lucia Squires (The Outsiders, The Wild Party), this production embraces the playful spirit and ensemble-driven heart that have made Godspell a favorite for generations. Built around a powerhouse ensemble, this full-hearted musical asks: what happens when people from all walks of life come together to create a community? Through a series of parables, games, songs, and moments of connection, the show explores themes of compassion, forgiveness, joy, and belonging. That sense of community extends beyond the story itself. This year's cast includes multiple families performing together, with parents and children sharing the stage as part of the same company. The result is a production that reflects the very themes at the heart of Godspell: connection, mentorship, laughter, and the relationships that bring people together. Leading the company are Carson Reitz as Jesus and Benjamin Lowery as Judas. They are joined by an ensemble that brings together familiar WRP faces alongside performers making their Western Reserve Playhouse debuts. The company includes Rachael Armbuster, Amy Aust, Molly Aust, Nina Aust, Isaac Bauman, Shelia Baronwright, Amy Bodnar, Maeve Greising, Kate League-Weston, Maisie League-Weston, Connor Mast, Rose McMillan, Lauren Stepanski, and Isabel Valega. As Western Reserve Playhouse continues its commitment to community-centered theatre, Godspell serves as a fitting reminder of the power of gathering together. The musical's message of empathy, understanding, and shared humanity resonates just as strongly today as it did more than fifty years ago. Conceived and Originally Directed by John-Michael Tebelak. Music and New Lyrics by Stephen SchwartzOriginally Produced on the New York Stage by Edgar Lansbury, Stuart Duncan and Joseph Beruh.

Event Summary: A sweet little girl from Eastlake is about to turn 3, and the Lake County Birthday Club is calling on the community to help make her celebration extra magical. The young girl, who has epilepsy and is very fragile, requires feeding assistance. Despite the medical challenges she faces, she is filled with joy and lights up every time she sees her favorite character — Winnie the Pooh. Her love for the classic bear has inspired those organizing her birthday to create a Pooh-themed celebration that will bring her comfort and happiness. The Lake County Birthday Club is working to surprise her with Winnie the Pooh-themed items for her bedroom, items that can provide daily smiles and a sense of comfort long after the birthday candles are blown out. Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Now in his eighties, King continues to share poems drawn from his lived experiences—stories of struggle, perseverance, and humanity that resonate deeply with audiences., Shaker Arts Council’s Heart of the Arts series is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.

The young girl, who has epilepsy and is very fragile, requires feeding assistance. Despite the medical challenges she faces, she is filled with joy and lights up every time she sees her favorite character — Winnie the Pooh.

The Lake County Birthday Club is working to surprise her with Winnie the Pooh-themed items for her bedroom, items that can provide daily smiles and a sense of comfort long after the birthday candles are blown out. Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991.

Event Summary: A sweet little girl from Eastlake is about to turn 3, and the Lake County Birthday Club is calling on the community to help make her celebration extra magical. The young girl, who has epilepsy and is very fragile, requires feeding assistance. Despite the medical challenges she faces, she is filled with joy and lights up every time she sees her favorite character — Winnie the Pooh. Her love for the classic bear has inspired those organizing her birthday to create a Pooh-themed celebration that will bring her comfort and happiness. The Lake County Birthday Club is working to surprise her with Winnie the Pooh-themed items for her bedroom, items that can provide daily smiles and a sense of comfort long after the birthday candles are blown out. Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991.

Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday.

Event Summary: A monthly, body-centered experience exploring archetypes, taboos, and the expectations placed upon the female body. Who are we at our core—beneath conditioning, performance, and inherited narratives? Across cultures and time, certain expressions of the feminine have been labeled too much, too wild, too emotional, too sensual, too knowing. These messages do not only live in history or society—they live in the body. What are we carrying that is historical, ancestral, and what within us is quietly ready to blossom into the collective consciousness? This space is an invitation to turn toward the layers that have been silenced, shaped, or constrained—both culturally and internally.$15.00 per person 2nd Wednesday of each month 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM

Event Summary: A sweet little girl from Eastlake is about to turn 3, and the Lake County Birthday Club is calling on the community to help make her celebration extra magical. The young girl, who has epilepsy and is very fragile, requires feeding assistance. Despite the medical challenges she faces, she is filled with joy and lights up every time she sees her favorite character — Winnie the Pooh. Her love for the classic bear has inspired those organizing her birthday to create a Pooh-themed celebration that will bring her comfort and happiness. The Lake County Birthday Club is working to surprise her with Winnie the Pooh-themed items for her bedroom, items that can provide daily smiles and a sense of comfort long after the birthday candles are blown out. Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Event type: Community Events
Event Summary: A sweet little girl from Eastlake is about to turn 3, and the Lake County Birthday Club is calling on the community to help make her celebration extra magical. The young girl, who has epilepsy and is very fragile, requires feeding assistance. Despite the medical challenges she faces, she is filled with joy and lights up every time she sees her favorite character — Winnie the Pooh. Her love for the classic bear has inspired those organizing her birthday to create a Pooh-themed celebration that will bring her comfort and happiness. The Lake County Birthday Club is working to surprise her with Winnie the Pooh-themed items for her bedroom, items that can provide daily smiles and a sense of comfort long after the birthday candles are blown out. Founded in 2020, the Lake County Birthday Club has proudly celebrated over 200 birthdays for individuals with special needs across the county. The organization focuses on bringing joy and community support to children and adults who might otherwise miss out on the simple celebration of another trip around the sun., “Every donation, gift, and kind message makes a real difference,” Lake County Treasurer Michael Zuren Commented. Those who would like to help can contribute Winnie the Pooh-themed gifts, decorations, or other items suitable for a 3-year-old girl. Monetary donations and messages of encouragement are also welcome. To get involved or ask questions, please contact Terri Bowes or Michael Zuren at 440-567-0991. The Lake County Birthday Club invites everyone in the community to come together and wrap this precious little girl in love as she celebrates her third birthday. In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, small acts of kindness like this remind us of the power of community and compassion. Every contribution — big or small — helps create beautiful memories for a child who deserves all the joy in the world.

Event Summary: Plants and humans have lived and evolved alongside each other for millennia, developing a deeply intertwined and dependent relationship built upon intuition and trust. Over the years, that trust has been broken, our understanding lost and forgotten. The Floros Project developed out of a desire to reconnect with plants beyond a surface level understanding, creating an opportunity to cultivate a relationship which allows for each plant to speak in their own way, with no projections or influences. Supported with guided visualizations, rhythmic drumming and singing bowls, participants of the Floros Project will engage in the centuries-old practice of communicating with plant spirits and devas, sharing in and validating our individual experiences, building trust in ourselves, our intuition and the plants themselves. Each month we will enter into relationship with one individual plant through tea and tincture or essence whose identity will remain unknown until the end of the experience. Participants will have the opportunity to continue the project at home with additional dried tea and handouts. Floros = Flora + Cosmos; Reweaving the cosmic fabric and our relationship with the green world. $25/person. Third Friday of each month.6:30-8:30pm
