Panelists for the League of Cincinnati Theatres (LCT) agree that the Ensemble Theatre of Cincinnati’s production of HANDS ON A HARDBODY as a 4.5 Star production.
The musical is the touching yet often comedic story of ten Texans, hoping to win a new truck by being the last person to let it go. One panelist noted “Rarely have I seen a cast so balanced. There is not a weak link. Everyone makes their characters believable human beings.” Panelists single out “Charlie Clark’s Benny Perkins is terrifically aggravating.” Panelists note the show is “skillfully crafted and admirably directed by Lynn Myers.”
Tickets for HANDS ON A HARDBODY are available athttp://www.ensemblecincinnati.org/ or by calling 513-421-3555. The show runs through September 21.
Nominations for LCT awards will be determined and announced at the end of the season and winners awarded at the annual LCT party in the summer.
