convergence-continuum, continues its 2011 Season at the Liminis theatre with the Midwest premiere of Five Flights by Adam Bock- a soaring and touching comedy.

Siblings Ed and Adele inherit an enormous aviary that their late father built for his deceased wife, whose soul, he believed, had transformed into the body of a wren. The grown children are faced with the dilemma of what to do with the crumbling structure - sister-in-law Jane wants to build tidy new houses; friend Olivia wants to build The Church of the Fifth Day honoring birds and the Fifth Day of creation; Ed wants to let the building fall to the ground. Folded into this debate are issues of religious conviction, fear of commitment, the way Russian ballet resembles a hockey game, and the courtship of Ed by Tom, a gay professional hockey player. (Warning: may contain brief exposure to strobe effects, male nudity, and bird plumage.)

Five Flights is directed by convergence-continuum's Artistic Director, Clyde Simon and features actors Robert Branch, Jaclyn Cifranic, Clint Elston, Elaine Feagler, Lauri Hammer and Zac Hudak.

Five Flights opens Friday, August 19 and runs at 8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through September 10 at the Liminis, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland, OH 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for seniors (65+) and $10 for students. Reservations and information are available at 216-687-0074 and www.convergence-continuum.org.
