Sean Derry and Alanna Romansky, co-directors of none too fragile theater, have a knack for picking scripts that insight and excite. They reach for creating dissonance in the minds of the audience. In their short existence, the theatre has taken on the Israeli-Palestine conflict, racial hatred, and now unionism and big business. No wonder the venue bills itself as 'Akron and Northeast Ohio's home for kick-a** theater!.'
The network has picked up an hour-long special featuring 'We Can't Stop' singer Miley Cyrus.
Houdini Publishing announced the upcoming release of their latest book, La Bella Mafia, Bella Capo's true story as told to co-authors Dennis Griffin and Morgan St. James. Co-author Dennis Griffin said, 'This brave woman came out of hiding to share her life story in order to reach the legions of abused women (and some men) who suffer in silence.' Shelters provide safety and counseling, which is extremely important in the journey from fear and threats to a normal life. Bella's online support movement, La Bella Mafia, is a volunteer support network of women who have walked in those shoes. Women who were in such dire circumstances they had to turn off all emotion in order to survive. Bella's opens the book with this statement: 'I had endured so much, I was beyond feeling anything. Because I believe in angels, I had a crying angel tattooed on my back so it could cry for me when I couldn't cry for myself.' Through counseling and writing the book, Bella now has the ability to cry for herself, so every page is stained with her tears. Excerpt from the Introduction in Bella's words. I never believed I would be able to write about the shocking existence I endured from the time I was only four, but now I know I must if others are to be helped. Bella is not my given name, but it is who I have finally become and this is my story. My co-authors, Dennis Griffin and Morgan St. James, held my hand all the way through the trauma of reliving everything and have put my memories and stories into what you are about to read: 'La Bella Mafia.' I warn you, this book is not for the faint of heart. No child or young woman should ever have to go through what I did. If you looked at our family on the surface, we appeared to be living the American Dream with a nice house, luxuries, my father's successful career and plenty of his important friends. The dark secrets of a sadistically abusive father and brother, sexual abuse, ties to organized crime and free-flowing drugs should have had no place in the life of the little girl who twirled and danced in her perfect pink bedroom while wearing a fluffy tutu. That lovely image was what everyone saw, while the horrendous underbelly of our family remained hidden, and continued into my life as a teen and an adult. You might think things like these only happen in movies, on TV or in fiction, but let me assure you, everything is true. By all odds, I should have died many times but something in me gave me the strength to close out the horrible reality, the physical abuse and living on the edge. Presale begins on August 15, 2013. Release date: October 15, 2013. Contact: munari@msn.com For more information, visit http://labellamafiabook.wordpress.com
