Browns Rule!

November 19th through December 13th, 2009

Cleveland Public Theatre is proud to present Browns Rules by Eric Schmiedl Directed by Bill Hoffman Original songs written and composed by Hoffman and Schmiedl

Don't miss the world-premiere of this cabaret style musical by nationally recognized local playwright Eric Schmiedl. Browns Rules is both a send-up and a love-letter to The Cleveland Browns. Three performer musicians and the audience are on a mission - successfully name the 29 rules of being a Cleveland Browns Fan and the Browns will win the Superbowl in 2010.



Part vaudeville, part sideshow, part variety show Browns Rules is an interactive exploration of the relationship between Cleveland and our beloved football team. With a rock band on stage, three performers combine storytelling and drama as they rip apart myths, celebrate heroes, and try to understand what makes the Cleveland Browns so important to our culture. What was the All-America Football Conference and who destroyed it? How did Paul Brown inspire his famous 1949 all-star team? Art Modell, friend or foe? Who called "Red Right 88?" Who wrote the song "Bernie, Bernie?" Cleveland Browns Stadium, asset or financial disaster? These questions and more are examined as Browns Rules looks at our dear Brownies and the city that loves and hates them.

Showtimes: Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:00pm
Monday, November 30 at 7:00pm (Tickets only $10!)
Sunday, December 13 at 3:00pm (Browns have a bye week!)

You've been punked!

Although I have BIG dreams for this blog, and would absolutely welcome ALL of these opportunities (okay Kim?), I think my April Fools prank worked, and you've all been "punked."

I received a comment earlier and didn't publish it, as I wanted to keep the fun alive all day but it best captured the spirit of the silly post.

"OK, I'm a little torn on this one. On side I'm like "holy crap! this is such exciting news." But then a small little voice comes out and reminds me that today is April Fool's day. Hmmm...everybody is capable of a simple prank I guess. But then I go back to the other side and think that there are no ends to what amazing things this author can do, so then I start to believe all this good news..... Except for the Lebron interview. Maybe I can understand Al Roker but I think interviewing Lebron would be hard to keep a secret. Regardless, I'm choosing to be happy and excited for our very own. Besides, I don't want to ruin my chances at being invited to a few Tribe games, eat at nice restaurants and see good plays. Congrats!"



Thanks to all of the kind words and support. I LOVE writing the blog, keep the fun events coming, get out there and make Cleveland as special as it truly is. PARTICIPATE. Support your local business owners. Stand up and speak for why YOU love Cleveland.
