HEROES runs Jan. 6-22

HEROES
Presented by Dayton Theatre Guild 
Jan. 6-22

Three aging WWI French army veterans, a very different “band of brothers,” muse on life, the past and what is over the next hill as they confront, comfort and sometimes ignore each other. This wistful and often hilarious piece takes place on the terrace of a French military home in 1959 where these heroes have spent the last forty years recollecting it all.

Directed by Fred Blumenthal
Produced by K.L. Storer

Cast: Tom Stivers as Henri, Gil Martin as Gustave & Richard Young as Philippe

AVENUE Q
Presented by Cincinnati Actor’s Studio and Academy
Nov. 25-Dec. 4
Avondale 

This zany, adult-themed spoof on Sesame Street revolves around the main character, Princeton, who has just graduated from college with a B.A. in English. He moves into an apartment in New York City in the only neighborhood he can afford, on Avenue Q. Oddly enough, in this neighborhood the superintendent is actor Gary Coleman. There, Princeton and his neighbors cope with the struggles of real life, learning that you cannot necessarily count on things turning out as you would like. -StageAgent.com
