Witty and hilarious, but also deeply moving, HONK! will treat you to equal amounts of laughter and tears.

THESPIS Runs Aug. 21-23

SOAW_ThespisTHESPIS
Presented by Stone on a Walk Theatre
Aug. 21-23
Over-the-Rhine

Cast: Samuel Fisher as Thespis, Jonathan Long as Sparky, Linnea Bond as Nicole, Hannah Rah as Daphne, Michael Gettinger as Sebastian,  Jacob Zimmerman as Bryan, Tyler Minton as Dave & Aiden Sims as Mercury

The Roman gods have become too old and tired to perform their duties and they’re facing a serious lack of followers. In walks Thespis with his troupe of actors to take their places and save the day, but while they experiment with their new roles, the Universe hangs in the balance. Thespis was the first show written by Gilbert & Sullivan, the writing duo famous for Pirates of Penzance and H.M.S. Pinafore, but the final script and score were lost in a tragic fire. Now using the surviving pieces of the script (and a healthy dash of artistic license), Thespis and his rag-tag group of actors live to make blunders on a cosmic scale again to the delight of audiences of all ages

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM Runs Aug. 1-17

BTP_logoA MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM
Presented by The Batavia Theatre Project
Aug. 1-17
Batavia

A Mid Summer Night’s Dream tells the story of four lovers who each want someone who they can’t have. The play includes two rulers from different worlds looking forward to their honeymoons; a group of clumsy actors, trying to put on a “tragic” play for their Duke’s upcoming wedding and the marital quarrels of two omnipotent beings, who’s conflicts wreak havoc on the weather and those around them. All of this craziness is tied together by a mischievous imp. In one crazy night in the woods, Shakespeare teaches the audience about love, breakups, sex, marriage, death, life, fairies, some odd plants and a donkey. –StageAgent.com
