AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS
Presented by Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati
Dec. 4-Jan. 4
Over-the-Rhine
Directed by D. Lynn Meyers
It is 1899 and the mysterious, brilliant, mathematically precise Englishman Phileas Fogg has wagered his considerable fortune that the world can now be circumnavigated in 80 days. Will bandits, buffalo, winter storms and even the meddlesome Scotland Yard prevent him and his wily valet, Passepartout, from completing this daunting task? Jumping between trains and steamships, even employing an elephant, this magical family-friendly adventure leads Fogg to discover a wider world as well as his own heart in this swashbuckling musical retelling of Jules Verne’s classic tale.

BULL, a companion piece by Mike Bartlett to the play COCK, which was produced by the Know Theatre last year, explores the hazards of office life in a cut-throat economy.
Panelists found the play “funny, sharp, and brutal…the playwright creates characters that speak truthfully about the human condition which sometimes is not pleasant to see or hear.” The entire ensemble was praised for their performance, which was “delicious to watch… The verbal repartee was conducted with a refreshing briskness.”
So, to paraphrase, no bull, know BULL at the Know.
BULLcontinues through November 30th. Tickets can be purchased at http://www.knowtheatre.com/.
