Falcon Theatre
Jan. 24-Feb. 8
[Newport]

Directed by Torie Wiggins

Cast: Bryana Bentley as Angel, Keith Holland as Sam, R. DeAndre Smith as Guy, Elizabeth Taylor as Delia & Elliot Young as Leland

It’s the summer of 1930 in Harlem, New York. The creative euphoria of the Harlem Renaissance has given way to the harsher realities of the Great Depression. The play brings together a rich cast of characters who reflect the conflicting currents of the time through their overlapping personalities and politics.

HAND TO GOD
Warsaw Federal Incline Theatre
Jan. 23-Feb. 9
[East Price Hill]

Directed by Dylan Shelton

Cast: Alex Slade as Jason, Karie Gipson as Margery, Brian Anderson as Pastor Greg, Jack Kremer as Timothy & Hope Pauly as Jessica

After the death of his father, meek Jason finds an outlet for his anxiety at the Christian Puppet Ministry, in the devoutly religious, relatively quiet small town of Cypress, Texas. Jason’s complicated relationship with the town pastor, the school bully, the girl next door, and – most especially – his mother are thrown into upheaval when Jason’s puppet, Tyrone, takes on a shocking and dangerously irreverent personality all its own.  HAND TO GOD explores the startlingly fragile nature of faith, mortality, and the ties that bind.

trueSH*T on Jan. 23

Jan. 23
Memorial Hall [Over-the-Rhine]

Some take it (and some can’t). Some give it (and some couldn’t). Some have shoveled it, are full of it, or have been emptied of it (intentionally or quite by “accident”). One thing is for sure… you do not want to step in it! Yes, we’re talking about “sh*t” and so will our storytellers in January! ..and that’s no bull!

Now in their 10th season, True Theatre continues to produce quarterly one-night-only events featuring five people, from all walks of life, sharing true, personal stories, based on the theme of the evening.
