To Our Loyal Customers

In order to comply with the current order of Governor DeWine all remaining performances of “The King and I” have been cancelled.

If you had a reservation to attend between the dates of March 14, 2020 thru April 5, 2020 and did not get the opportunity to see the show, we have deposited your funds into your LaComedia account where they can be used thru October 31 of this year. However, if you request a refund we will gladly issue a refund to your charge card or issue a check.
If you are requesting a refund please submit your request by sending an email to the following:
accounting@lacomedia.com.

Please include a phone number in the event we would need to contact you. We ask for your patience as this process may take some time. We are currently unable to operate our normal business hours.

At this time we are only addressing reservations for “The King and I” for the dates mentioned above. We will continue to follow the guidance of the State of Ohio and any future decisions will be based upon the most current directives at that time. Status changes can be found on our Facebook page as well as our website.

LaComedia Dinner Theatre has provided southwest Ohio with “A Taste of Broadway” for 45 years. We look forward to returning to normal operations and to continue that tradition for many years to come. We thank you for your support, patience, and understanding during this difficult and unprecedented time and hope to have the opportunity to serve and entertain you soon.

Older update – To comply with the most recent order issued by the Director of the Department of Health (ODH), LaComedia Dinner Theatre will be closing this evening (3/15) and remain closed until directed otherwise. Please continue to check Facebook and our website for further updates.

Public Health Update

This is in response to the orders issued by the Director of the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) and Warren County Combined Health District regarding LaComedia’s best course of action moving forward.

All reservations for the last 24 performances of “The King and I” (March 14 – April 5, 2020) have been CANCELLED. However, we have been given the opportunity to reserve 80 seats for the remaining performances.

If you have a reservation for one of these dates, you will receive an email and a phone call in the near future.

LaComedia Dinner Theatre has provided southwest Ohio with “A Taste of Broadway” for 45 years and we are doing everything possible in order to continue that tradition for many years to come.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and HAMLET Cancelled at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company

CSC_logoIt is with a heavy heart, that we announce the remaining performances of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and the upcoming performances of HAMLET have now been cancelled in response to the order released by Ohio Governor Mike DeWine limiting public gatherings and the public health crisis.

We are a community of artists, collaborating on projects onstage and off. As a supporter of Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, you are such an important part of our family. As you can imagine, we are devastated to close our doors for the time being. We know that for so many, attending a performance is a chance to escape and the power of live theatre creates a common bond desperately needed in these uncertain times. While nothing can replace these in-person connections, we hope that you take comfort in the fact that we are working tirelessly to create new ways to connect with you as we all move forward together.

More than ever before, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company needs your support. Please consider making a donation to protect our ability to create powerful and engaging theatre long after this period of uncertainty. While our performances, workshops, classes, and events cannot go on, the lives and livelihoods of those who make the art you love must. Your philanthropic support ensures that when this crisis ends – and it will – Cincinnati Shakespeare Company will still be right here waiting for you with open arms, ready to hold up a mirror to reflect all the best parts of our shared humanity.

Cincinnati Shakespeare Company appreciates your continued support and understanding as we make decisions in the best interest of our community. We look forward to seeing you back at the Otto soon. Please be well and thank you for sharing in our mission to bring Shakespeare and the Classics to life for all.
