🌱 Benefit For Cleveland Public Theatre + Infamous The Musical

Hey, Lakewood! It's me, Sean Peek, your host of the Lakewood Daily. Here are all the most important things to know about what's happening in the community today...

First, today's weather:

A shower and t-storm; humid. High: 76 Low: 67.

Here are the top three stories in Lakewood today:

1. Cleveland Public Theatre's annual Pandemonium benefit is scheduled for Saturday, Sep. 10. The event will support the Y-Haven Theatre Project, which supports theatre programs for youth and adults who have previously been incarcerated or are in recovery from substance use disorder (SUD). Pandemonium will feature the culinary delights of several local food stations, including The Root Café here in Lakewood, for guests to enjoy. (cleveland.com)
2. If you're looking for even more local theatre, you won't want to miss a staged concert of Infamous the Musical, scheduled for Sunday, Sep. 11 at 2 p.m. at St. Edward High School. The brand-new theatrical work, created by local playwright/composer David Michaels, explores the events leading up to and following the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Two-time Tony Award-winning producer Ken Davenport serves as the show's production coach. (Lakewood Observer)
3. Looking for a new home without leaving the area? One of these Lakewood properties might just be the right one for you. A 1 bedroom/1 bathroom condo in the Carlyle on the Lake community is now on the market for $179,000. If you'd prefer a single-family home, four more houses await, all for under $375,000.
