Earlier this year, Convergence Continuum "Cleveland's up close and OUT there Theatre" hosted the premiere of Cemetery Calling, a play by Eric Mansfield that is set in Cleveland's landmark Lakeview Cemetery and tells a story connected to a historic tragedy in the city's Collinwood neighborhood.
Mansfield is an award-winning playwright, an Emmy-winning TV journalist formerly with WKYC-TV, a retired U.S. Army officer and a °µÍø½ûÇø alumnus who is an assistant vice president in °µÍø½ûÇø's Division of University Communications and Marketing. Cemetery Calling is the newest in a series of plays Mansfield has written from the Northeast Ohio Master of Fine Arts program. Others include Love in Reserve, The Baron of Brown Street, Whitesville and Trial by Fire. Trial by Fire, a story around the topic of banned books, will be coming to the stage at °µÍø½ûÇø in mid-October.
