ALL MY SONS Runs Aug. 18-Sept. 3

DTG_All My Sons logo.jpgALL MY SONS

Directed by Debra Kent

During World War II, Joe Keller and his business partner were accused of knowingly shipping damaged airplane parts that led to the deaths of 21 servicemen. While only his business partner, Steve Deever, was convicted of the crime, Keller was guilty as well. When both the Keller family and the Deever family find out the truth, it damages even further the relationships among the children of both families, resulting in the Keller son’s confrontation of his father.

THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR Runs Aug. 18-27

BST_Merry Wives on Windsor logoTHE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR
Bespoke Theatre
Aug. 18-27
Carillon Brewing Company at Carillon Park [Dayton]

Directed and produced by by Patrick Allyn Hayes

Cast: Thomas Stiver as Falstaff, Amy Askins as Mistress Ford, Janet Wasson as Mistress Page, Michael Schumacher as Ford, Shaun Diggs as Page, Hannah Rahe Goodman as Ann Page, Coleman Clark as Fenton, Vanessa Friday as Mistress Quickly, Mark Andrew Reuter as Sir Hugh Evans, Isaac Hollister as Dr. Caius, Cullen J. Bower as Host of Garder Inn, Bill Styles as Shallow, Ben Sanders as Slender & Abby Rutan as Robin

The story revolves around an older fat knight named Sir John Falstaff who comes to town hard pressed for money. He devises a plan to woo two wives (Mrs. Page, and Mrs. Ford) and then leech off of their husband’s money by writing them each a love letter, and confessing his desires for them. Mrs. Page and Ford, both good friends and not fools, realize the Knight had written them identical letters, and spend the rest of the play pranking and playing tricks on him to teach him a lesson. The play also involves the marriage of Mrs. Page’s daughter Anne.  Anne’s parents each support a different suitor for her to marry; the eccentric French Physician Dr. Cauis, and a local middle class idiot, Abraham Slender.  Neither has her heart, and she searches for a way to marry one that she truly loves.

THE GOOD BODY Runs Aug. 12-13

EP_The Good Body logoTHE GOOD BODY
Equality Productions
Aug. 12-13
Irish Heritage Center Theater [East End]

Directed by Clare (CG) Gray & Richard Zenk

Cast: Peggy Allen as Eve Ensler, Amanda Borchers, Narisa Cole, Victoria Garcia, CG Gray, Lori Kirstein, Jessica Moore & Maureen Kennedy

With THE GOOD BODY, Eve Ensler turns her unique eye to the rest of the female form. Whether undergoing botox injections or living beneath burqas, women of all cultures and backgrounds feel compelled to change the way they look in order to fit in. The Good Body merges cross-cultural explorations with Eve’s own personal journey coming to terms with her “less-than-flat, post-forties stomach.”

A Funny Thing logoA FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM
The Drama Workshop
Aug. 11-27
Glenmore Playhouse [Cheviot]

Directed by Dennis Murphy
Music directed by Linda Abbott
Produced by Gretchen Gantner

Cast: Joe Penno as Prologus/Pseudolus, Chuck Ingram as Senex, Samantha Toberman as Domina, Alex Cottle as Hero, Rob Bucher as Hysterium, Burt McCollom as Erronius, Jon Vater as Miles Gloriosus, Gary Herman as Marcus Lycus, Victoria Covarrubias as Tintinabula, Whitney Ball as Panacea, Adrianna Boris & Mary Ingram as the Geminae, Rachel Kazee as Vibrata, Kaitrin McCoy as Gynmasia, Regina Stack as Philia and Mark Waldfogle & Jonny Hofmann as The Proteans

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM is a nonstop laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two.
