Cincinnati Pops Orchestra
March 10-12
Music Hall [Over-the-Rhine]

In 2018, Marvel Studios’ Black Panther quickly became a global sensation and cultural phenomenon, showing a new dimension of what superhero films could be. Rolling Stone raved, “The film lights up the screen with a full-throttle blast of action and fun. That’s to be expected. But what sneaks up and floors you is the film’s racial conscience and profound, astonishing beauty.” Now you can relive the excitement of T’Challa becoming king and battling Killmonger all while the Cincinnati Pops performs Ludwig Göransson’s Oscar-winning score live to picture.

La Comedia Dinner Theatre
Feb. 16-March 26
[Springboro]

Based on Louisa May Alcott’s life, LITTLE WOMEN follows the adventures of sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America.

AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY Runs March 9-26

MPI_August Osage CountyAUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY
Mariemont Players
March 9-26
Walton Creek Playhouse

Directed by Jerry Wiesenhahn
Produced by Kristen Vincenty

Cast: Fred Murrell as Beverly Weston, Diana Rogers as Violet Weston, Mary Stone as Barbara Fordham, Michael Ireland as Bill Fordham, Nicole Line as Jean Fordham, Elizabeth Hickerson as Ivy Weston, Linda Callahan as Karen Weston, Rose Vanden Eynden as Mattie Fae Aiken, Keith Cassidy as Charlie Aiken, Aaron Whitehead as Little Charles Aiken, Jessica Faye as Johnna Monevata, Bob Brunner as Steve Heidebrecht & BJ Simpson as Sheriff Deon Gilbeau

A vanished father. A pill-popping mother. Three sisters harboring shady little secrets. When the large Weston family unexpectedly reunites after Dad disappears, their Oklahoman family homestead explodes in a maelstrom of repressed truths and unsettling secrets. Mix in Violet, the drugged-up, scathingly acidic matriarch, and you’ve got a major play that unflinchingly–and uproariously–exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family.
