EURYDICE Runs Feb. 13-22

EURYDICE
NKU Theatre and Dance
Feb. 13-22
Fine Arts Center – Stauss Theatre [Highland Heights]

“Eurydice” reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus and Eurydice not through Orpheus’s infamous pilgrimage to retrieve his bridge, but through the eyes of its heroine. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she reunites with her father and struggles to remember her lost love. With contemporary characters, plot twists, and a script written to be a playground for designers, the play is a fresh look at a timeless love story.”

THE NERD Runs Feb. 13-15

THE NERD
Fairfield Footlighters
Feb. 13-15
Fairfield Performing Arts Center

Directed by Mark Lunsford
Produced by Nick and Anna Brown

Cast: Jake Spicer as Rick Steadman, Jacob Nichols as Willum Cubbert, Davis Byrd as Axel Hammond, Liz Lindon as Tansy McGinnis, Nick Dunker as Warnock Waldgrave, Madelynn Annarumo as Clelia Waldgrave & Charlie MacPherson as Thor Waldgrave

When mild-mannered architect Willum Cubbert is visited by the man who once saved his life, things quickly spiral into chaos. What begins as a heartfelt reunion turns into a hilarious nightmare as his unexpected guest overstays his welcome in the most outrageous ways. Larry Shue’s classic comedy is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud romp about gratitude gone wrong.

Marianne and Roland meet at a barbecue, date, and break up. Or maybe they don’t. Maybe they fall in love and live happily ever after. Or again, maybe they don’t.
