The Blacks: A Clown
Show (Classic Drama) by Jean Genet
Director: Terrence Spivey
There will be two midnight performances
Friday April 25 and Friday May 2
The Blacks: A Clown Show was written in 1958 at the
request of a black actor. But Jean Genet, a white,
French novelist and playwright (The Balcony), wrote the
drama focusing on a troupe of black actors, who come
together to perform a ritual that requires the corpse of
a white woman. Originally written for an all-black cast,
The Blacks offered a new voice to American theatre. It
won an Obie for Best Off Broadway play in 1961.
NOTE: Audience members are required to wear mask for
this production (which will be provided by ushers).
Discretion is advised due to content, language, and
unexpected audience interaction. Do not come alone!

All Hail Hurricane Gordo
Drury Theatre
The routines of daily life get blown apart when two
brothers take in a plucky young houseguest. While India
is running away from her relatively normal family, Chaz
is struggling to find normalcy in the one he already
has. Is it possible to be your brother's keeper and have
a life too?
In an historic collaboration, The Play House is
co-producing this World Premiere presented at the Humana
Festival at Actors Theatre of Louisville this spring. As
the major festival of new American plays, Humana has
premiered the work of such writers as Arthur Kopit, Tony
Kushner, Marsha Norman, Donald Margulies, John Patrick
Shanley, and Sarah Ruhl. The Festival attracts audiences
from around the world, and three of its plays have won
Pulitzer Prizes for Drama.

Fall Festival
Fall Festival takes place during the month of
October, an autumn showcase of the estate’s grounds and
gardens during one of Ohio’s most beautiful seasons.
Giant hand-painted and one-of-a-kind “scarecrows”
created by Robin VanLear, Artistic Director of Community
Arts at The Cleveland Museum of Art, and fall
horticulture displays of haystacks, pumpkins and gourds
will be the backdrop for a variety of special activities
for all ages.

Ohio Mart & Stitchery
Showcase
10am-5pm
Ohio Mart is an Akron tradition and
features more than 120 artisans and craftspeople. The
event takes place on the grounds of Stan Hywet and
everything from one-of-a-kind art pieces to tempting and
freshly baked treats is available. Organized by the
Women’s Auxiliary Board of Stan Hywet, this
volunteer-run event is a major fundraiser for the
estate; its proceeds are donated to support ongoing
restoration and preservation efforts at the Museum.
Stitchery Showcase is presented by the
Stan Hywet Needlework Guild and is a juried exhibit
of the timeless art of stitchery. Judges in each
category (counted thread, canvas, surface stitchery
multimedia or quilting) award first, second, third or
honorable mention ribbons to entrants. Judging is based
on color, design and texture of each piece. The Showcase
is open to any needle worker —membership in the Guild is
not a requirement.

Taste of the Harvest
For the settlers of Ohio’s Western Reserve, autumn was a
busy, but happy time to celebrate the bounty of the
earth. The produce of their farms was husked, flailed,
canned, pickled, dried and jellied to provide for the
long, cold winter ahead. Every hand, from toddler to
grandmother, was needed to get the work done. Join in
the harvest season and taste foods prepared by the
residents of Wheatfield and help prepare for the winter
season.
