LAC_Little Women the MusicalLITTLE WOMEN the Musical
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.

TLD_UrinetownURINETOWN the Musical
TheatreLab Dayton
March 9-18
PNC Arts Annex [Dayton]

Directed by Philip Drennen
Musical Directed by Lorri Topping
Choreographed by Gage Wayne

Cast: Drew Roby as Officer Lockstock, Connor Curran as Little Sally, Garrett Young as Bobby Strong, Skyler McNeely as Caldwell B Cladwell, Rachel Hertenstein as Hope Cladwell, Lindsay Sherman as Penelope Pennywise, Ty Smith as Officer Barrel, Joshua Silver Hughes as Mr McQueen, Dustin Schwab as Senator Fipp, Jamal Cann as Old Man Strong/Billy Boy Bill, Jacob Sawtelle as Hot Blades Harry, Mackensie King as Josephine Strong, Abby Kress as Little Becky Two Shoes, Hayley Penchoff as Soupy Sue, Derick Latimer as Tiny Tom/Dr Billeaux, Meghan Rupper as Robbie the Stockfish & Lily Meyers, Raef Norgaard, Kylee Pauley as Swings/Ensemble

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards and two Obie Awards, URINETOWN is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, environmental collapse, privatization of natural resources, bureaucracy, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself! This show has the following trigger warnings: self harm, death, and foul language.

TOOTSIE Runs March 7-19

BIC_Tootsie logoTOOTSIE
Broadway in Cincinnati
March 7-19
Aronoff Center [Downtown]

It’s “far and away the funniest musical of the season” (Daily News). It’s “the most uproarious new show in years” (The Hollywood Reporter). It’s “the best comedy on Broadway” (Forbes). No matter how you say it, TOOTSIE is unanimously funny! It’s a laugh-out-loud love letter to the theatre, based on the Oscar®-nominated film. Featuring a Tony®-winning book by Robert Horn and an outrageously clever score by 2018 Tony® winner David Yazbek (The Band’s Visit, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), this New York Times Critic’s Pick is a “hilarious, thoroughly modern TOOTSIE ” (People Magazine) that’s “even funnier than the movie!” (New York Post). “In these turbulent times, with the world out of balance, we need a place to let the good times roll,” says Rolling Stone, “TOOTSIE is it.”
