DTG_100 Saints100 SAINTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Presented by Dayton Theatre Guild
Feb. 22-March 10
Dayton

Directed by Ellen Finch

Father Matthew McNally has served his congregation well but now finds he needs some time to reflect on his own faith and suddenly leaves his parish. Theresa, a cleaning woman at his rectory, searches him out for spiritual advice. She needs help with her 16-year-old daughter, Abby. And Garrett, a grocery delivery boy, desperately seeks Father McNally’s guidance in search of his own identity. An unexpected crisis brings these characters into confrontation. Faith is tried and shaken as Father McNally faces his own spiritual demons and his greatest fear – living without a connection to God.

SSP_Moonlight and MagnoliasMOONLIGHT AND MAGNOLIAS
Presented by Sunset Players
Feb. 22-March 9
West Price Hill

Directed by Don Frimming
Produced by Allen Moellmann

Cast: Ben Hecht – Mike Burke, Victor Fleming – Bob Kelley, David O. Selznick – Jerry Yearout & Miss Poppenghul – Merrit Beischel

It’s 1939 and Hollywood’s legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production of his new epic, “Gone with the Wind.” The screenplay, you see, just doesn’t work. Selznick sends for famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz. He locks the doors, closes the shades, and, with bananas and peanuts, the three men create the screenplay that will become one of the most beloved of all time.
