For the budding geologist sifting through the rocks and sediment left by the tide, or the amateur ornithologist, the lake is essential. Lake Erie was an integral part of my grandparents’ lives, both as a source of income and enjoyment. They judged the seasons by the mood of the lake, just as scientists judge the health of the Great Lakes ecosystem by the changes in its waters. “Lake Erie is the bellwether,” says Dr. Robert Heath, Kent State professor of biological sciences and head of the Water Resources Research Institute.

Scientists have traced the existence of the dead zone, a shallow area in the lake’s central basin, to at least the 1930s. Like all living organisms, the prolific algae eventually died, dropped to the bottom of the lake and decayed. This process robs the bottom of the lake of oxygen, Heath explains.

For nine years as artistic and as producing director of Cleveland's Great Lakes Shakespeare Festival, and later as producing director of the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts in California, Dr. Dowling directed more than a score of classical and new works.

  • CHESTER THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS the AMERICAN PREMIERE of TOM WELLS’S FOLK CTC’S Final Production of the Season Directed by Berkshire Favorite James Warwick
    REQUEST FOR COVERAGE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 1, 2017 Contact: Angela Combest [email protected] (413) 354-7770 CHESTER THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS THE AMERICAN PREMIERE OF TOM WELLS’S FOLK CTC’s Final Production of the Season Directed by Berkshire Favorite James Warwick Chester, MA – Chester Theatre Company (CTC) is proud to present Tom Wells’s Folk in the historic Chester Town Hall, 15 Middlefield Road in Chester, MA, from August 17 - 27, 2017. The production is directed by James Warwick, staging his eighth production for the company. Folk was first produced by Birmingham Repertory Theatre at the start of a tour by Birmingham Repertory Theatre, Hull Truck Theatre and Watford Palace Theatre. The Guardian, in reviewing that production, noted Wells’s “priceless ability to endow the ordinary with luminous significance.” For Winnie, a Guinness-hoisting nun, and Stephen, a shy maintenance worker, Friday nights are for playing and singing. Until fifteen-year-old Kayleigh lobs a brick through Winnie’s window. These three band together into the unlikeliest of folk trios, and an equally unexpected family. Dappled with humor and melody, this charming play asks whether we may have more in common than our apparent differences suggest. “Working on the script of Folk and listening to the music that Tom Wells has so sensitively incorporated has touched me deeply,” said director Warwick. “His sense of these characters' hopes and fears, his gentle humor and joy in bringing this heartwarming story to life is very special. I'm excited to share this new young playwright's rare talent with our Chester audiences...my eighth production with this great little theater company.” Folk, while not a musical, per se, is infused with song.

  • The Fifty-Year History of Great Lakes Theater by Margaret Lynch
    The Fifty- Year History of GLT | Page | 1 The Fifty-Year History of Great Lakes Theater By Margaret Lynch Prologue Fifty years is a long time. Especially the fifty years that measure the distance from 1962 to 2012--from the Beatles to Lady Gaga, from the first transatlantic TV transmission to the iPad, from the Civil Rights Movement to Occupy Wall Street, from the Cold War to the War on Terror. So it’s not just fifty years that Great Lakes Theater marks this year, it’s fifty years against the backdrop of some of the most tumultuous, eventful and quickly changing decades on record. It’s noteworthy that Great Lakes Theater survived these fifty years, but the fact that it has also flourished is a cause for incredible pride and joyous celebration. There are few adults whose close involvement with the theater spanned the entire fifty years and in 2012 could still remember gathering at the Lakewood Civic Auditorium on the evening of July 11, 1962, to launch Great Lakes Shakespeare Festival. Audrey Watts, the theater’s longest serving trustee, was one who could recall fifty years later how the Lakewood High School cafeteria was festooned with banners that evening for a festive dinner catered by a popular Lakewood family restaurant. She could relive the anxiety when the air-conditioning broke down during the dinner but also the mounting excitement when congratulatory messages were read from First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy and former First Lady Mamie Eisenhower and the lights dimmed for Shakespeare’s As You Like It. Much has changed since that long-ago July evening.
