Oct. 13
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by Bob Allen

Cast: Michael Bath, Jay Dallas Benson, Jan Costello, Elizabeth Harris, Angela Nalley, Charlie Roetting, Tracy Schoster & Ted Weil

Sweet Suspense is back!

A horror classic is brought to life in the theatre of the mind with New Edgecliff Theatre’s radio theatre performance of FRANKENSTEIN, adapted from the book by Mary Shelley. As our actors, along with live sound effects, retell the story of reanimating the dead, the story takes on a new dimension, with each audience member conjuring up their own unique vision of the monster.

As always, join us for a sweet treat dessert buffet at intermission, featuring delights from area restaurants. All proceeds from the event benefit New Edgecliff Theatre’s operating fund, ensuring future seasons of quality theatre in Cincinnati.

Acting Up, a volunteer, non-profit community theater,provides both onstage and backstage opportunities for children ages 6-18. In their past four seasons, Acting Up has been nominated for 174 Orchid awards, winning 59 of these from the Ohio Association of Community Theaters, including Excellence in Ensemble and Excellence in Dance Execution. In addition, nine of these talented teens are up for Cappie awards this weekend.

The FunRaiser will help support community theater in keeping ticket prices for other Acting Up shows at a reasonable cost, as expenses continue to rise dramatically with each production. It will also give the young performers the opportunity to perform some great contemporary numbers, from slightly more mature-themed productions; as well as favorites from Disney movies. Songs include varied selections from shows such as “Sweeney Todd” “Phantom of the Opera” “Aladdin” “The Last Five Years” “Annie” and “Mary Poppins.”

Tickets are $20 each ($10 is a tax-deductible donation) and are available online at www.ActingUp.com or at the box office starting one hour before the show. For more information call 513-494-6062.
