April 26-May 5
Evendale Bell Tower Arts Pavilion

Directed by Sarah Hoback & Dane Rogers

Cast: Evan Beckmeyer as Richard Hannay, Adria Whitfill as Annabella Schmidt/Pamala/Margret, John Dorney as Clown & Kathleen McDaniel as Clown

The 39 Steps. Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python and you have the intriguing, thrilling, riotous and unmissable comedy. The show hurtles a notorious fugitive and a spellbound blonde from a London music hall north by northwest to Scotland’s most remote highlands. Will they save Britain from a den of devious spies? A cast of four actors plays over 150 characters in this fast-paced tale of an ordinary man on an extraordinarily entertaining adventure.

All 37 plays in 97 minutes! Three madcap actors in tights weave their wicked way through all of Shakespeare’s comedies, histories, and tragedies in one wild ride that will leave you breathless and helpless with laughter. An irreverent, fast-paced romp through the Bard’s plays. Rated PG-13.

VIETGONE Runs April 27-June 2

PIP_VietgoneVIETGONE
Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park
April 27-June 2
Rosenthal Shelterhouse Theatre

Directed by Joanie Schultz

An all-American love story about two very new Americans. It’s 1975. Saigon has fallen. He’s lost his wife, she’s lost her fiancé, and home as they’ve known it will never be the same. But this isn’t a story about war: It’s a story about falling in love. Based on playwright Qui Nguyen’s family, Vietgone tells the partially true and endlessly entertaining tale of how his parents, Quang and Tong, met in a refugee relocation camp in Arkansas during the Vietnam War. They navigate their very new lives as very new Americans amidst family pressure, the challenges of migration and a culture full of motorcycles, cowboys, fast food and dreams. With irreverent humor, hip-hop and heightened theatrical storytelling, this original story reinvents the romantic comedy genre and captures your heart. Recommended for older teenage and adult audiences.
