Loveland Stage Company
March 1-17
[Loveland]

Directed by Michael Yarick
Orchestra directed by Jeanne Bilyeu
Choreographed by Garrett Klaas
Produced by Becky Jones & Kayla Haas

“Sha la la, Joseph, you’re doing fine! You and your dreamcoat, ahead of your time!” One of the most enduring shows of all time, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a reimagining of the Biblical story of Joseph, his father Jacob, eleven brothers and the coat of many colors.
Told entirely through song – The Narrator leads us through a retelling of the story of Joseph – the favorite son of Jacob – who is blessed with vivid dreams that foretell the future. Jacob buys Joseph an elegant coat of many colors, which doesn’t please his 11 brothers. After being sold into slavery by his jealous brothers, he ingratiates himself with Egyptian noble Potiphar, but ends up in jail after refusing the amorous advances of Potiphar’s wife. However, news of Joseph’s ability to interpret dreams travels and sparks the interest of the hilarious and troubled Elvis-like Pharaoh. Joseph’s solution to Egypt’s famine elevates him to Pharaoh’s right-hand man. In the midst of the famine, the 11 brothers find themselves unknowingly at the mercy of the brother they betrayed. Joseph tests their integrity, and ultimately the brothers are reconciled. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is set to a multitude of musical genres, spanning from traditional musical theater to country and calypso to pop and rock n’ roll.

TDW_Beckys New CarBECKY’S NEW CAR
The Drama Workshop
March 1-17
Glenmore Playhouse [Cheviot]

Directed by Tom Peters

Cast: Cat Cook as Becky, Devin Knott as Chris, Christie Bishop as Joe, Clint Bramkamp as Steve, Michael Scarpelli as Walter, Kaitlin Schiltz as Kenni & Colleen McElroy as Ginger

Becky Foster is caught in middle age, middle management and in a middling marriage—with no prospects for change on the horizon. Then one night a socially inept and grief-struck millionaire stumbles into the car dealership where Becky works. Becky is offered nothing short of a new life…and the audience is offered a chance to join the wild ride. BECKY’S NEW CAR is a thoroughly original comedy with serious overtones, a devious and delightful romp down the road not taken.

MOON OVER THE BREWERY Runs March 1-10

Troy Civic Theatre
March 1-10
[Troy]

Directed by Steve Dietrich

Cast: Autumn Zalar as Amanda, Liz Maxson as Miriam, Cody Peterson as Randolph & Mark Van Luvender as Warren

Miriam Lipsky, unmarried and living with her thirteen-year-old daughter, Amanda, works as a waitress to pay the bills, but it is her painting that really matters to her. Good subjects are scarce in the drab Pennsylvania coal town where they live, so Miriam dons a miner’s lamp and paints at night, when moonlight softens and transforms the stark landscape. Miriam is also desirous of male companionship, a need which the precocious Amanda (she has an IQ of 160) has discouraged by driving away suitor after suitor with her barbed comments….  Matters come to a head when Miriam brings home Warren Zimmerman, a rather unprepossessing, somewhat paunchy mailman who, at first, appears to be a perfect target for Amanda’s caustic remarks and demeaning intelligence tests.
