TOOTSIE Runs March 7-19

BIC_Tootsie logoTOOTSIE
Broadway in Cincinnati
March 7-19
Aronoff Center [Downtown]

It’s “far and away the funniest musical of the season” (Daily News). It’s “the most uproarious new show in years” (The Hollywood Reporter). It’s “the best comedy on Broadway” (Forbes). No matter how you say it, TOOTSIE is unanimously funny! It’s a laugh-out-loud love letter to the theatre, based on the Oscar®-nominated film. Featuring a Tony®-winning book by Robert Horn and an outrageously clever score by 2018 Tony® winner David Yazbek (The Band’s Visit, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), this New York Times Critic’s Pick is a “hilarious, thoroughly modern TOOTSIE ” (People Magazine) that’s “even funnier than the movie!” (New York Post). “In these turbulent times, with the world out of balance, we need a place to let the good times roll,” says Rolling Stone, “TOOTSIE is it.”

THE TAMING OF THE SHREW
Cincinnati Shakespeare Company
March 3-25
[Over-the-Rhine]

Directed by Jemma Alix Levy

Cast: Angelique Archer as Bianca, A.J. Baldwin* as Bartender/Widow, Geoffrey Warren Barnes II* as Tranio, Darnell Pierre Benjamin* as Lucentio, Billy Chance* as Gremio/Pedant, Colleen Dougherty* as Kristina Sly, Ken Early* as Tailor/Vincentio, Jennifer Joplin* as Grumio, Josh Innerst* as Petruchio, Sara Mackie* as Katherine, Justin McCombs* as Hortensio, Mollie Murk as Biondello, Maggie Lou Rader* as Amy & Torie Wiggins as Baptista*
*Appearing through an Agreement between this theatre, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, and Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States

Beloved and beautiful, Bianca has everything a girl could want—except a husband. Unfortunately for her, Bianca’s overbearing parents prevent her happily-ever-after because her headstrong, ahead-of-her-times sister, Katherine, refuses to get married first. To convince her otherwise, Bianca’s suitors enlist the help of money-hungry Petruchio to woo her sister under the promise of a hefty dowry. But Katherine’s feminist hijinks result in a series of hilarious attempts to tame the “shrew” in this unexpected reimagining.
