On Saturday August 7, Kent State University Museum’s MOVIE DATE WITH KATE regional film series joins with PlayhouseSquare’s “Cinema at the Square” at the Palace Theatre in co-presenting a 2 p.m. screening of the classic Spencer Tracy-Katharine Hepburn comedy “Adam’s Rib” (1949).

MOVIE DATE WITH KATE supports the museum’s exhibition “Katharine Hepburn: Dressed for Stage and Screen,” opening Oct 2nd, and partners with major classic movie venues and cultural institutions throughout Northeast Ohio.  ”Adam’s Rib” is the second film in the ongoing MOVIE DATE WITH KATE series.

Prospective patrons can either buy a  ”Cinema at the Square” movie ticket through PlayhouseSquare or opt for a special afternoon package benefiting the Kent State University Museum by calling the museum at 330.672.3450.

The fashion museum’s afternoon package includes: a movie ticket for “Adam’s Rib,”  two passes to the museum, and a private “After-Rib Reception” following the film at the newly relocated Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative (CUDC), 1309 Euclid Avenue, a few doors west of the Palace. The After-Rib Reception will feature displays of CUDC architectural project design work on Milan (Italy), a special presentation of images from the museum’s Hepburn collection, and complimentary wine & appetizers.

“Adam’s Rib” (directed by Hepburn’s favorite director George Cukor) is the sixth movie to pair Katharine Hepburn with Spencer Tracy. Tracy and Hepburn he was always billed first — did nine films together over a span of 25 years, the first being “Woman of the Year “(1942) and the last, “Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner?”  The couples’ on-screen chemistry and off-screen relationship is Hollywood legend.

“‘Adam’s Rib’ is listed by the American Film Institute as seventh in its ‘Top Ten’ list of romantic comedies,” said Nathan Scott, Venue Booking Manager at PlayhouseSquare who selected the films for this season’s Cinema at the Square series.

The plot pits married attorneys Amanda and Adam Bonner on opposite sides of a trial in which Doris Attinger (Judy Holliday) is charged with shooting her two-timing husband (Tom Ewell).  Adding to the courtroom battle between the sexes is David Wayne as the piano-playing “serpent” in the Bonner household’s Eden, constantly disrupting their domestic Eden with Cole Porter’s sardonic tune “Farewell Amanda.”

“And of course, throughout all the shenanigans, Hepburn is dressed beautifully, Walter Plunkett’s costumes reinforcing her position as an icon for style-conscious professional women,” said Jean Druesedow, the director of the Kent State University Museum, adding that Miss Hepburn even kept the black evening gown she wears in Adam’s Rib for herself.

“That dress will be prominently displayed in our exhibition,” she promised.

TO ORDER TICKETS:  Call 330.672.3450 to reserve the afternoon package benefiting the Kent State University Museum ($30 and including a movie ticket, two KSU Museum passes and “After-Rib” reception) To buy just the movie ticket ($5) through PlayhouseSquare, call 216.241.6000.

About the Kent State University Museum:

Closely linked to the Shannon Rodgers and Jerry Silverman School of Fashion Design and Merchandising at Kent State University, the Museum contains important collections of fashion and decorative arts; provides students with first-hand experience with historic and contemporary fashions, as well as costumes representing many of the world’s cultures; and serves both the University and the community through exhibitions and public programs, and, by appointment, research in the collections.  2010-11 marks the Kent State University’s Museum’s 25th anniversary, and pre-opening programming for the Hepburn exhibit culminates in the museum’s 25th anniversary gala “25 Years of Dazzle” at the museum with special guest Robert Osborne, host of Turner Classic Movies.  Honorary chairs for the gala are Reuben and Isabel Toledo.  After the exhibition opens, a full schedule of events will cover Miss Hepburn’s influence on fashion, her life and artistry, stage and screen costume design, and the impact of the entertainment industry on fashion.

– Have you ever wondered, “Can I do that?” Well, now you can find answers, advice, tips, and strategies for business and life in O’Neill’s book, “Bitten by the Business Bug.”

This book is the complete opposite of the philosophies that we have seen in corporate America, on Wall Street, and in government over the past few years.  ”Bitten by the Business Bug” is a practical approach to life and business with straightforward tips for kids and adults alike.

Life does not have to be brain surgery or rocket science.  It does not have to be complicated. Sometimes it just means getting back to the basics, using common sense, and taking one step at a time regardless of age.  O’Neill shares his values, creativity, strategies, and advice through short personal stories.  Readers are sure to recognize and relate to many similar experiences.

Success is not guaranteed.  Entrepreneurship is not for everyone; nor is working for the monthly paycheck.  The only guarantee is, “Doing nothing will guarantee nothing.” (Tip # 4 from the book)  ”If you at least try your ideas, you might surprise yourself,” O’Neill says.  ”I did.”

O’Neill started his business, Pencil Bugs, at the age of nine.  His mom was painting some crafts to sell.  O’Neill suggested he help her paint them and figured she would split the money with him.  To his surprise, she turned down his offer but suggested he come up with his own product to sell at the craft fair.

Soon his colorful, bug-like, handcrafted pencil toppers were born.  He has continued to add other products to his line using the Pencil Bugs characters.

O’Neill speaks at schools, libraries, business, and events and encourages others to try their ideas.  He donates a portion of his proceeds to Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego, California.

For more information or to buy the book or any of the other products, please visit http://www.pencilbugs.com.
