Spotlight: A Conversation with Kamala Harris

The headline event for this Wednesday, February 25, 2026, takes place at the Playhouse Square. Former Vice President Kamala Harris arrives at the KeyBank State Theatre at 7:00 PM for a stop on her memoir tour. The evening focuses on her book, 107 Days, which provides a behind-the-scenes look at the 2024 presidential campaign. Attendees can expect a night of candid reflections on leadership, resilience, and the political process. Special tickets are available for a meet-and-greet and a signed copy of the book through local bookstores.

Theater and Live Performance

Cleveland’s theater scene is particularly vibrant tonight with the opening of a new production. The CWRU/CPH MFA Acting Program debuts Epiphany at the Cleveland Play House. Set on a snowy evening in a remote country home, the play explores the fragile nature of connection and human rituals during a forgotten holiday. For those who enjoy Pulitzer Prize-winning drama, Primary Trust also continues its run at the Cleveland Play House, telling a moving story of friendship and new beginnings.
