Lebanon Theatre Company
March 11-20
Lebanon

Directed by Karen Oehler
Produced by Alisa Russell

THE WILLOW AND I tells the story of two sisters in 1900, that are in love with the same tall, young man. One of the sisters is frail and gentle. The other robust and assertive. It is the gentle girl that the young man loves but never marries because the other sister threatens to kill herself just before the wedding. The bride’s mind recoils, and for forty years the girl lives in her clock-stopped mind on her summer wedding day. And then, she awakens. ​Her lover married her sister; they had a son who is very like the father. You may guess whose face she first sees and what it does to her.

Directed by Matthew Smith

Marjorie Taub, a middle-aged upper west side New York doctor’s wife, spends her days and evenings pursuing culture at various museums and the theatre.

Middletown Lyric Theatre
March 11-19
Middletown

Directed by Charley Shafor

Cast: Doug Malcom, Michael Scholterbeck, Joey Becker, Joel Butch & Jon Jackson

From its blistering language to its brutally honest look at sex and body image, The Irish Curse is a revealing portrait of how men, and society, define masculinity. In doing so, it dares to pose the fundamental question that has been on the minds of men since the beginning of time: “Do I measure up to the next guy?” that is the question every Wednesday night, in a Catholic church basement, at a self-help group for men with small penises.

Geotrav Productions
March 11-19
Miami University-Hamilton

Directed by John Vanderplough

Cast: Bob Brunner as Martin Dysart, Michael Gettinger as Alan Strand, David Moak as Frank Strang, Cynthia Tate as Dora Strang, Diane Minnich as Hester Solomon, Tera Garnett as Jill Mason, Randy King as Harry Dalton, Ivory Mazur as Horseman/Nugget/Equus & Gisela Cicci as Nurse

An explosive play that in its 1973 original production took critics and audiences by storm, EQUUS is Peter Shaffer’s remarkable exploration of the way modern society has destroyed our ability to feel passion. As psychiatrist Martin Dysart struggles to understand the motivation for Alan Strang’s brutality of six horses, he is increasingly drawn into Alan’s web and eventually is forced to question his own sanity. Recommended for ages 18 and up.
