Susie Thiel Collaborative presents a societal commentary touching on many aspects of what people tend to Google, look up or question. From the mundane of how to make a bed to more crucial subjects such as, how to get over a broken heart, the work is interwoven with light-hearted overtones that truly take the audience on an emotional journey. A mixture of dancing and speaking bodies introduces “how-to” instructional guides on a new level!

Something is lurking in Loveland, the Sweetheart of Ohio, where the disappearance of a strange old man has rekindled the hysteria surrounding America’s most alluring cryptozoological phenomenon: The Loveland Frog. Join Luke Honeywell and a smokin’ bluegrass band on a riotous river adventure with maniacal moonshiners, crooked cops and the last Twightwee Indian as they rescue Pee Paw from the wondrous and elusive Loveland Frog. Based on true accounts, and featuring an all-star local cast.

CFF14: HEIST

Three crooks of questionable ability face a seemingly never-ending stream of challenges. Two bothersome hostages complicate life in the secret hideout. How much chloroform is too much chloroform? Whose tooth is this? What is roaming the air ducts? Creepy, hilarious, and thoroughly whatthehell?!, Heist is an exquisite little bit of absurdist crime noir. Yes, if Dashiell Hammett and Samuel Beckett got into a drunken slap fight and then wrote a play, it would beHEIST.

Gentrification is a crime against humanity, but…. it’s inevitable, right? WRONG!!! Come participate in this provocative interactive evening of theater, poetry, dance, and hip-hop to explore the causes, effects, and most importantly ALTERNATIVES to gentrification in Over-The-Rhine and beyond.

Mike sits in a chair and tells stories. Seriously. That’s all he does. You seem skeptical. Trust him. It works and it’s funny. Unless you need your performers to stand. Is that what you need? Do you NEED that? If you DON’T need that, then please come see this show about a train trip, Mother issues, sexual escapades and what it means to be a Fotis. NOTE: Mike might stand a few times during this show and is very nice and a little self deprecating, something his therapist would like him to stop doing.
