It has never been easier to connect with others yet our world has never been more divided. The struggle to understand and accept people that do not look the same, sound the same, think the same has never been more real. “label•less” is the perfect vehicle to start the difficult conversations that need to be had. Whether discussing race, sexuality or mental health, “label•less” brings attention to topics in a way that everyone can understand and relate to. Encouraging everyone to “Walk” a mile in someone else’s shoes. Using popular music, dance and personal stories, this cast of 14-24 year olds draws attention to the struggles facing us while offering hope of a better, more accepting tomorrow. Join us on this journey.

An eclectic group of pubescent kids vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the teens spell their way through a series of crazy words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves triumphant! At least the losers get a juice box! Great songs, great characters, one hilarious night at the theater!

THE BARBER OF SEVILLE Runs July 6-8

CO_The Barber of SevilleTHE BARBER OF SEVILLE
Cincinnati Opera
July 2-9
Music Hall Springer Auditorium [Over-the-Rhine]

Supreme silliness ensues when Figaro, Seville’s most beloved barber, plays matchmaker for his former employer, Count Almaviva. The Count loves Rosina, but she’s the ward of the devious Doctor Bartolo, who has designs on wedding her himself. To win Rosina’s heart, the Count enlists Figaro to cook up disguises, double dealings, and deceits to fool old Bartolo and set Rosina free. Rossini’s beloved comedy reminds us that sometimes, on the path to true love, the last thing you want to be is yourself. Sung in Italian with projected English translations.
