Directed by Richard Zenk

Cast: Peggy Allen as Betty Meeks, Chris Bishop as David Marshall Lee, Evan Blanton as Ellard Simms, Erica Cohen as Catherine Simms, Alan Kootsher as Charlie Baker, Joe Kozak as Owen Musser & Tim Rogers as Froggy LeSueur

In this hilarious farce, an incredibly shy young man tries to avoid social interactions by pretending to be a foreigner who speaks no English. As people speak freely around him, he learns a variety of secrets—some frivolous and some dangerous. He also discovers an adventurous extrovert hidden within himself, setting up the wildly funny climax in which things go uproariously wrong for the wicked, while the virtuous emerge triumphant.

Queen City Theater
Sept. 22-Oct. 8
The Carnegie [Covington]

Directed by Lyle Benjamin

Cast: Jennifer Joplin as Mary, Cathy Springfield as Sara/Others & Robert Carlton Stimmel as George/Others

In 1908, a cook named Mary Mallon can’t grasp how she could possibly have anything to do with the Typhoid Fever cases that seem to follow her from job to job. A dramedy about the notorious disease carrier which treats history as something that overlaps the present rather than something that happened in the past.
