Patricia Corbett Theater [University Heights]

Directed & choregraphed by Diane Lala 
Music directed by Ian Axness

Experience the magic of the 1980s in this Tony Award-nominated, hilarious, roller skating, musical adventure about following your dreams despite the limitations others set for you! Xanadu follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mount Olympus to Venice Beach, California in 1980 on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time: the first roller disco! But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds. Xanadu is hilarity on wheels for adults, children and anyone who has ever wanted to feel inspired.

The Nerve
Oct. 20-31
PNC Arts Annex [Dayton]

Since the sudden death of his favorite student, high-school teacher Larry Morrow has been falling asleep at his desk and dreaming. The school’s guidance counselor is hanging inspirational posters designed to help everyone “process their emotions.” The student’s sister and friends—more agitated and hormonal than usual—find little solace in Dante’s Inferno. And as Larry’s dreams intensify, a shocking secret is exposed. A secret that will change everything. Searing yet surprisingly funny, THE DREAM OF THE BURNING BOY is about finding the strength to move on…and the courage to live without regret.

Cast: Chris Hahn as Larry, Liz Lindon as Rachel, Skyler McNeely as Steve, Stephanie Ridgeway Johnson as Chelsea, Ricky Yannotti as Kyle, Kaleigh-Brooke Scheiding as Andrea & Connor Gray as Dane
