THE ODD COUPLE Runs Sept. 16-Oct. 10

CCPATHE ODD COUPLE
Covedale Center for the Performing Arts
Sept. 16-Oct. 10
[West Price Hill]

Directed by Greg Procaccino

Cast: Eric Kilpatrick as Felix Unger, Jeremiah Plessinger as Oscar Madison, Jeff Hartman as Murray the Cop, John Dorney as Vinnie, Matt Lovell as Speed, Don Volpenhein as Roy, Kate Stark as Cecily & Lesley Taylor as Gwendolyn

This classic comedy opens as a group of the guys assemble for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger, who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed, and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds, Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as The Odd Couple is born.

Written by Susan and Doug Decatur

Gary Douglas is a dejected, recently-divorced, sixty-year-old man. He joins a men’s basketball league thinking he can return to something else he loved before. After joining the Shooting Stars basketball team, he learns that their goal becomes his: to get to the Final Four of the Senior Olympics. During this quest, Gary unexpectedly meets Susie Weston, a frustrated writer pursuing her own dreams and aspirations. Susie and Gary’s fun and poignant journey together with Gary’s teammates, and their spouses and friends, bring them all to a realization that it’s never too late to triumph in life and love.

THE OUTSIDER Runs Sept. 10-26

MPI_The Outsider logoTHE OUTSIDER
Mariemont Players Inc.
Sept. 10-26
[Walton Creek]

Directed by Douglas Berlon

Cast: Tasha Boeckmann as Paige Caldwell, Ryan Bowron as Dave Riley, Debbi Berlon as Louise Peakes, Chuck Ingram as Ned Newley, Eric Day as Arthur Vance, Jennifer Keith at Rachel Parsons & Jimmy Jackson as A.C. Petersen

Ned Newley doesn’t even want to be governor. He’s terrified of public speaking; his poll numbers are impressively bad. To his ever-supportive Chief of Staff, Ned seems destined to fail. But political consultant Arthur Vance sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for… the worst candidate to ever run for office. A timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy.

9/10/21 Covid-19 Policy: Mariemont Players will be following the guidelines from the CDC in order to keep our audiences, actors, staff and crew as safe as possible. MASKS ARE REQUIRED TO BE WORN INSIDE OUR BUILDING. If you don’t have a mask with you we will gladly provide you with a disposable one.
