RiverStage Community Theatre
June 8-16
Market Street School Auditorium [New Richmond]

RiverStage regrets to announce that WHAT THE BELLHOP SAW has been cancelled.

Its run was originally scheduled for the weekends of June the 8th, and June the 15th.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our supporters.

A nice fellow checks into an expensive suite in New York City’s finest hotel, precipitating a fantastic nightmare involving a Salman Rushdie-type author, an Iranian terrorist, a vile wife from hell, a conniving bellboy, an incompetent FBI agent, a nubile celebrity-mad maid, a dimwitted secretary, and a little pig-tailed girl. [Ages 14+]

PRESENT LAUGHTER Runs June 8-16

MLT_Present Laughter logoPRESENT LAUGHTER
Middletown Lyric Theatre
June 8-16
[Middletown]

Directed by Charley Shafor

Cast: Bonnie Froelich as Monica Reed, Duane Gordon as Hugo Lyppiatt, Karen Griesinger as Miss Erikson, Jeremy Jackson as Morris Dixon, David Jenkins as Fred, Claire LaNicca as Joanna Lyppiatt, Elizabeth Long as Lady Saltburn, Christyn New as Daphne Stillington, Karen Oehler as Roland Maule, Gail Rudolph as Liz Essendine & Michael Schlotterbeck as Garry Essendine

At the center of his own universe sits matinee idol Garry Essendine: suave, hedonistic and too old, says his wife, to be having numerous affairs. His line in harmless, infatuated debutantes is largely tolerated but playing closer to home is not. Just before he escapes on tour to Africa the full extent of his misdemeanors is discovered. And all hell breaks loose.

INTO THE WOODS Runs June 7-16

East Side Players
June 7-16
Blue Ash Amphitheater 

Directed by Kate Brauer-Bell
Music Directed by D’Waughn Hazard
Choreographed by Anna Hazard

Official cast list

Be careful what you wish for … What if Cinderella, Rapunzel, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood and the Baker and his Wife lived in the same story? All must venture into the woods to seek fulfillment of their deepest wish, but what they find there is that dreams are rarely simple and wishes are not often granted free of complications. This charming story is at once hilariously funny and deeply moving, a fractured look at the flip side of the classic fairy tales as only master storyteller Stephen Sondheim (composer of Sweeney Todd and Company) could imagine.

ONCE ON THIS ISLAND Runs June 6-July 1

WFIT_Once on This Island logoONCE ON THIS ISLAND
Warsaw Federal Incline Theater
June 6-July 1
East Price Hill

Directed & choreographed by Jay Goodlet
Music directed by Damon Stevens

Cast: Shonda Moore as Ti Moune, Jared Roper as Daniel, Tia Seay as Asaka, Loren Richardson as Andrea, Brittany Hayes as Erzulie, Chandler Hoffert as Papa GE, El More as Mama Euralie, R. DeAndré Smith as Agwe, Garrett Klaas as Armand, Tim Richardson as Tonton Julian & Kiree Harris as Little Ti Mowne

Ti Moune, a peasant girl, falls in love with a wealthy boy from the other side of the island, Daniel. Unbeknownst to her, the pompous gods of the island make a bet over which is stronger, love or death – the stakes being Ti Moune’s life. When Daniel returns to his people, Ti Moune is shunned because of her lowly status. Her determination and capacity to love is not enough to win Daniel’s heart, and Ti Moune pays the ultimate price. Winner of the 1995 Olivier Award in London for Best New Musical, this show features exciting island-flavored songs, including “Waiting for Life”, “One Small Girl”, “The Human Heart” and “Why We Tell the Story”.
