Reviews: CityBeat | iSpyCincy | Talkin’ Broadway |

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET is the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, inspired by the electrifying true story of the famed recording session that brought together rock ‘n’ roll icons Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins for the first and only time.

On December 4, 1956, these four young musicians were gathered together by Sam Phillips, the “Father of Rock ’n’ Roll” at Sun Records in Memphis for what would be one of the greatest jam sessions of all time. Million Dollar Quartet brings that legendary night to life with an irresistible tale of broken promises, secrets, betrayal and celebrations featuring timeless hits.

Reviews: CityBeat | Cincinnati Examiner |

Directed by Drew Fracher

Featuring: Giles Davies, Corinne Mohlenhoff and Sherman Fracher

In pre-Revolutionary France, two long time friends and occasional passionate lovers amuse themselves by orchestrating a plot of seduction for two young women of virtue. As their cynical game proceeds, their motives become darker – and more deadly. Filled with seduction, duplicity, and plenty of forbidden passion, this dark and delicious intrigue paints a portrait of the pre-Revolutionary French aristocracy in all its cynicism and decadence.

Directed by Heidi Schiller

Cast: Chessie Vigram as Daisy, Brian Roberts as Hoke & David Moak as Boolie

Daisy Wertham, a rich, crusty and sharp-tongued widow, is informed by her son, Boolie, that henceforth she must rely on the services of a chauffeur. He hires a thoughtful, unemployed black man, Hoke, whom Miss Daisy immediately regards with disdain and who, in turn, is not favorably impressed with his employer’s patronizing tone. But, in a series of absorbing, revealing scenes, spanning 25 years, the two grow ever closer and more dependent on each other.
