OUR MOTHER’S BRIEF AFFAIR Runs March 1-17

dtg_ourmothersbriefaffairlogoOUR MOTHER’S BRIEF AFFAIR
Dayton Theatre Guild
March 1-17
[Dayton]

Directed by Patrick Allyn Hayes

Cast: Kathy Campbell as Anna, Mark Sharp as Seth, Kerry Simpson as Abby & Isaac Hollister as Abe/Lover

Anna is in the hospital having the latest of her frequent deathbed scenes, and this one looks like it may be the real deal. She makes a shocking confession to her grown children about an affair from her past that just might have resonance beyond the family. But how much of what she says is true? While her children try to separate fact from fiction, Anna fights for a legacy she can be proud of. With razor-sharp wit and extraordinary insight, OUR MOTHER’S BRIEF AFFAIR considers the sweeping, surprising impact of indiscretions both large and small.

csc_winterstale8THE WINTER’S TALE
Cincinnati Shakespeare Company
March 1-23
[Over-the-Rhine]

Directed by Christopher Luscombe

An irrational and unfounded jealousy has consumed Leontes, the king of Sicilia. Convinced his wife Hermione has been carrying on an affair, he unleashes his rage upon her and their newborn child, whom he banishes to the wilderness. The consequences of his actions unfold over many years, in ways no one, most of all Leontes could have anticipated. Shakespeare’s magical tale of wrath and redemption, of loves lost and then found is a sure way to warm the heart on a cold winter’s night. This production is suitable for all ages.

THE DROWSY CHAPERONE Runs March 1-17

lsc_the drowsy chaperone logoTHE DROWSY CHAPERONE
Loveland Stage Company
March 1-17
[Loveland]

Directed by Carissa Sloan
Choreographed by Marjory Clegg
Produced by Jill Gornet

Cast: Tom Cavano as Man in Chair, Cathy Alter as Mrs. Tottendale, Joseph Moreland as Underling, Micheal Kiser as Robert Martin, Joshua Marcus as George, Dave Marcus as Feldzieg, Megan Archibald as Kitty, John Sloan as Gangster #1, Vincent Eldridge as Gangster #2, Tom Morris as Aldolpho, Stephanie Mackris as Janet Van De Graaff, Christina Siciliano as The Drowsy Chaperone, Melinda Hubbard as Trix the Aviatrix & Jonathan Eckman as The Superintendent
Ensemble: Elizabeth Carras, Izy Jones, Terry Neack, Niki Rasmussen, Caitlyn Sanderson & Madeleine Weinkam

THE DROWSY CHAPERONE is a loving send-up of the Jazz age musical featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another. With the houselights down, a man in a chair appears on stage and puts on his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical, The Drowsy Chaperone. The show comes to life on stage as the man guides the audience through crazy plot and characters: two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not so bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone – all mixed up in an evening of madcap delight.
