Patricia Corbett Theater [University Heights]

Directed by Richard Hess

When the locals in a small Russian hamlet learn that an undercover government inspector is coming for a surprise visit, a case of mistaken identity sends the whole village spiraling into a world of panic and greed. Part farce, part slapstick and wholly entertaining, this timely and spirited adaptation of Nikolai Gogol’s classic play exposes the corruption of a provincial town with biting hilarity.

Victoria Theatre Association
Oct. 2-7
Schuster Center [Dayton]

SCHOOL OF ROCK is a New York Times Critics’ Pick and “an inspiring jolt of energy, joy and mad skillz!” (Entertainment Weekly). Based on the hit film, this hilarious new musical follows Dewey Finn, a wannabe rock star posing as a substitute teacher who turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. This high-octane smash features 14 new songs from Andrew Lloyd Webber, all the original songs from the movie, and musical theater’s first-ever kids rock band playing their instruments live on stage. Vanity Fair raves, “Fists of all ages shall be pumping!” Contains some mild adult language.

Directed by Tracy M. Schoster

Cast: Kyle Daniels as Adam, Becca Howell as Janet, Ted J. Weil as Ray & Terry Gosdin as Palmer

Just when you thought you’d heard every crazy 9/11 conspiracy theory, a stranger walks into the Yankee Tavern. There, inside the walls of this crumbling New York tavern, a young couple finds themselves caught up in what might be the biggest conspiracy of all. Steven Dietz’s acclaimed and already widely produced dramatic thriller, a selection of the National New Play Network’s Continued Life Projectis a fierce, funny, and ultimately mind-bending work of theatrical power that grips you until the final word. What you don’t know can hurt you.

The Arts Center at Dunham [West Price Hill]

Directed by Don Frimming

Cast: Jeri Nakamura as Rhonda Lynn Futrelle, Denise Schnieders as Honey Raye Futrelle, Becky Cole as Twink Futrelle, Erin Marie Schwartz as Frankie Futrelle Dubberly, Tim Carney as John Curtis Buntner, Jim Swartwout as Dub Dubberly, Nick Dunker as Raynerd Chisum, Karson McCall as Gina Jo Waverly, Nick Young as Justin Waverly, Elaine Michael as Geneva Musgrave, Cathy Woodruff as Iney Dubberly &  Wyn Jones as Ms. Dayva Davidson

The Futrelle sisters are in a heap of trouble. Their beloved hometown of Fayro, Texas, is in danger of disappearing, and it’s up to the sisters to save it from extinction by luring a salsa manufacturing factory to town. To seal the deal, Honey Raye, who leads the Chamber of Commerce, makes promises to woo the salsa company rep to choose Fayro. So now it’s up to her sisters and the citizens of Fayro to pull together, turn her promises into reality and save their town using their Southern strength and ingenuity, which is a recipe for total hilarity.
