CSC_Merry Wives of Windsor promo2THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR
Cincinnati Shakespeare Company
Nov. 15-Dec. 7
[Over-the-Rhine]

The bawdy, bombastic, and chronically cash-poor Sir John Falstaff has been raising hell in the quiet town of Windsor. When his massive bar tab outstrips his meager means, he needs to raise some cash—and quick. He hatches a plan to seduce two of Windsor’s most wealthy married women, but when they catch wind of his salacious scheme, they turn the tables on their would-be wooer, joining forces to teach him a lesson he won’t soon forget.

THE WOLVES Runs Nov. 15-23

XUT_The Wolves logoTHE WOLVES
Xavier University Theatre
Nov. 15-23
Gallagher Student Center Theater [Evanston]

Directed by Tiffany Nichole Greene

Cast: Lauren Davidson as 00, Olivia Pletcher as 2, Gigi Relic as 7, Becky Williams as 8, Victoria Forbes as 11, Kennedy Florence as 13, Lily Dennstaedt as 14, Holland Taylor as 23, Liv Hardy as 46 & Tina Boffa as Mom

Drive. Ambition. Endurance. Precision. We’re not talking about any high school girls’ soccer team; we’re talking about a pack of female warriors, determined to win. Infused with the raw jagged energy of youth, The Wolves offers a refreshingly complex depiction of girls navigating friendships, growing up, confronting the future—and trying to score a few goals. Immediate and timely, this ferociously contemporary coming-of-age drama explores the aggression and teamwork of sports and adolescence with an unflinching and compassionate eye. Adult language and situations.
