RED SPEEDO 
Falcon Theatre
Feb. 11-26
[Newport]

Directed by Tara Williams

Cast: Anna Hazard, Jared Earland, Nik Pajic & Rory Sheridan

Ray has swum his way to the eve of the Olympic trials. If he makes the team, he’ll land a marketing deal with Speedo…a deal that means he’ll never need a real job. So when someone’s stash of performance-enhancing drugs is found in the locker room fridge, threatening the entire team’s Olympic fate, Ray has to quash a maelstrom of rumors…or risk losing everything. Red Speedo is a sharp and stylish play about swimming, survival of the fittest, and the American dream of a level playing field—or of leveling the field yourself.

BCT_Picasso at the Lapin logoPICASSO AT THE LAPIN AGILE
Beavercreek Community Theatre
Jan. 28-Feb. 5
[Beavercreek]

Directed by Chris Harmon
Produced by Jenny Wheeker

Cast: Jeremy Gingrich as Freddy, Chuck Larkowski as Gaston, Sasha Kozlova as Germaine, Eli Young as Albert Einstein, Casandra Steimle as Suzanne/Countess/Female Admirer, Richard Young as Sagot, Jose Gutierrez Del Arroyo as Pablo Picasso, CJ Suchyta as Charles Dabernow Schmendiman & Michael Ferrarelli as A Visitor

This long-running Off-Broadway absurdist comedy places Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian café in 1904, just before the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with cubism. In his first comedy for the stage, Steve Martin plays fast and loose with fact, fame, and fortune as these two geniuses muse on the century’s achievements and prospects, as well as other fanciful topics, with infectious dizziness.

PhD candidates Sanam and Ariel have spent the better part of the last decade exhaustively researching vanishing bee populations across the globe. Just as these close friends are about to publish a career-defining paper, Sanam stumbles upon an error in their calculations, which could cause catastrophic damage to their reputations, careers, and friendship. Now, Sanam is confronted with an impossible choice: look the other way or stand by her principles and accept the consequences? This production contains mature language and may not be suitable for all audiences.
