<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;">The writers are fantastic....! Not because they are elders in our community but because their talents help bust the myths of our society about what aging means. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;">Eleven residents of Rose Schnitzer Manor gather weekly to write poetry, short stories and one-act plays!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;">The RACC grant allows us to bring Playwright Matt Zrebski on board to teach the residents about the secrets of good playwriting. His insights and humor make for enjoyable classes. His students are just weeks away from finishing up our one-acts. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;">Stay tuned for dates and venue information. It's coming soon!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">There is something very powerful about hearing your words come to life. On August 14th, 2011 the auditorium of the Southeast Community Music Center filled with friends, family and community to hear the plays written by 7 residents of Rose Schnitzer Manor. The writers were amazed by how their short one-act plays came to life on stage.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">Illness prevented two residents from attending but a recording of the plays will help them hear the performances.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">Applause was mighty following each reading and our resolve is to do it again!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">We want to SHOUT OUT our gratitude to our sponsors....The Oregon Arts Commission, The NEA, Cedar Sinai Park, The Mittleman Jewish Community Center, and The Northwest Council of Jewish Women (Oregon Chapter)and Portland Center Stage.....and of course ....</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">MATT ZREBSKI, playwright, director and teacher for all his efforts! All the writers delighted in working with him and look forward to future opportunities to do it again!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">THANK YOU to our actors: Gavin Hoffman, Paige Jones, and Debbie Lamedman!</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">And we can't close this blog article without acknowledging our playwrights.....We Love You and hope to see you continue writing plays and stories and poems.
