Springboro Performing Arts Center

Cast: Carrie Thurston as Paige Caldwell, Michael Schumacher as Dave Riley, Kristen Erdman as Louise Peakes, Richard Young as Ned Newley, Don Campbell as Arthur Vance, Carly Wheeler as Rachel Parsons & Nicholas Beard as AC Peterson

Ned Newley doesn’t even want to be governor. He’s terrified of public speaking; his poll numbers are impressively bad. To his ever-supportive Chief of Staff, Ned seems destined to fail. But political consultant Arthur Vance sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for… the worst candidate to ever run for office. A timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy.

April 21-30
Bell Tower Arts Pavilion [Evendale]

Directed by Sarah Hoback

Cast: Alicia Friedman, Cassandra Homan-Wall, Rusty Lacy, Daren Lee, David Little & Kent Smith

This intricate time traveling comic thriller by the British master of farcical comedy delighted London and New York audiences. A London sex specialist from the future stumbles into a murder plot that sends her, compliments of a unique set of hotel doors, traveling back in time. She and two women who were murdered in 1998 and 1978 race back and forth in time trying to rewrite history and prevent their own violent ends. The frantic race begins when Poopay is hired for an evening at the Regal Hotel by an old man who eschews a fling in favor of confessing his role in the demise of his wives. Now a target, Poopay flees into the vestibule and somehow triggers the time machine.

Directed by Charley Shafor

What happens when we die? How do I prepare myself? What is the value of my life? In this modern retelling of Everyman, the most well-known and anthologized example of a medieval morality play; God sends Death to take Everyman, who stands in for all humankind, on his final journey. Along the way, Everyman meets characters who personify concepts such as Fellowship, Wisdom, Strength, and Discretion. However, they all abandon him, and he can only bring Good Deeds with him to gain entrance to heaven.

MAHLER SYMPHONY NO. 7 On April 21-22

CSO_Mahler Symphony No 7MAHLER SYMPHONY NO. 7
Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra
April 21-22
Music Hall [Over-the-Rhine]

Artists: Matthias Pintscher, conductor

Program: GUSTAV MAHLER: Symphony No. 7

If Mahler’s symphonies are like worlds, the Seventh is like the universe in a single night. Patterned in gigantic symmetry, the opening and closing movements are packed with enormous sounds, each like symphonies in themselves. The interior music is lighter by contrast, pivoting at the center with a ghostly dance. CSO Creative Partner Matthias Pintscher returns to conduct the huge orchestral forces needed for Mahler’s dusk-to-dawn universe, from clanging cowbells to titanic brass.

We believe that great music is for everyone, regardless of your budget. This concert is eligible for Pay What You Wish Pricing, as well as other discounts. To learn more visit Music for All.
