GAY PEOPLE'S CHRONICLE

Steve Simon, President

Some companies and brokers are promising you "the most money for your life insurance policy," but they are breaking their promises.

They promise to only represent your interests...they promise to get you the most for your policy...they promise that everything is confidential...they promise you will not have to pay their fee. They promise you will get your money quickly. They promise and they promise and they promise!

And who will these brokers sell your policy to? Not the company that will pay you the most,

a company like American Life Resources there would be no fee. The extra money it costs to have a middleman shop your policy to investors would go directly to you. And copies of your private and confidential medical records would not be floating around the country like a chain letter.

THEATER SPOTS

The Great Lakes Theatre Festival production of A Christmas Carol, going into its fifth season, seems to have become a popular Cleveland holiday tradition. Adapted and originally staged by GLTF Artistic Director Gerald Freedman, it is a lavish production full of festive dancing, beautiful carols and spectacular scenic effects. Its 27 member cast includes many local professionals who create the more than 60 characters that make up the world of Dickens' classic holiday tale. A Christmas Carol will be performed at the Ohio Theatre from December 1-26, Tuesday-Friday at 8 pm; Saturday at 4 pm and 8:30 pm; Sunday at 1:30 pm and 7 pm. Additional performances are scheduled on December 8 at 6:30 pm; December 15 at 2 pm and 6:30 pm; December 20 at 8 pm and December 22 at 4 pm. Tickets are $17-$30. For reservations telephone Advantix at 241-6000 or at 800-7666048.

Karamu Performing Arts Theatre is bringing back for the holidays Black Nativity, Langston Hughes' rousing gospel-song play. This joyous celebration of Christ's birth is a unique blend of traditional carols, gospel songs, dance and poetry. Former Karamu PAT artistic director, Mike Malone, will direct and choreograph the production which will feature a group of professional dancers in the principal roles and will make use of some of Cleveland's most talented gospel singers. Performances of Black Nativity are in the Jellife Theatre, November 26-January 2, Thursday-Saturday at 8 pm,

In celebration of its 25th season on Coventry, Dobama Theatre is restaging one of its successes from its first season, America Hurrah, by Jean-Claude van Itallie. This trilogy of one-act plays, "Interview," "TV," and "Motel," was one of the outstanding off-Broadway productions of the 1960s. Reviewing the 1966 production, Robert Brustein commented that, "The triumph of the occasion is to have found provocative theatrical images for the national malaise we have been suffering in Johnsonland these last three years: the infection of violence, calamity, indifference, gratuitous murder, and (probably the cause of all these) brutalizing war." It was typical of Dobama to bring this work to Cleveland only one year after its New York premiere. It is daring of Dobama, and directors Donald Bianchi and Ron Newell, to take a new look at America Hurrah in 1993. Playwright van Itallie will attend an opening night gala on December 3 and he will take part in a symposium on December 5 at 1 pm. Performances are December 3-19; Thursday-Saturday at 8 pm; Sunday at 7:30 pm, except for the last Sunday which will be at 2:30pm. Tickets are $8 and $7 (students and seniors) on Thursday and Sunday; $10 and $9 on Friday and Saturday. Tickets for the opening night gala which includes the performance and a party afterwards are $15; tickets for the symposium are $12 and $10. For reservations telephone 932-6838.
