LEADING LADIES
Covedale Center for the Performing Arts
March 9-April 2
West Price Hill

Directed by Bob Brunner

Cast: Natasha Boeckmann as Meg, Daniel Cooley  as Leo, Drew Davidson  as Jack, Leiren Jackson as Audrey, Elliot Handkins as Butch, Jamie Steele as Duncan, Harold Murphy as Doc & Peggy Allen as Florence

A crazy-good comedy where two destitute Shakespearean actors, Jack and Leo, find themselves performing “Scenes from Shakespeare” on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania! When they hear that an old lady in York, PA is about to leave her fortune to her long lost English nephews, they impersonate her beloved relatives and scheme to get the cash. But when they get to York, they find out that the relatives aren’t nephews, but nieces! Undaunted, they dress up as the never-before-seen girls, promptly fall head-over-petticoat in love with the old lady’s vivacious niece, Meg and her roller-skating friend Audrey. Throw a few more wacky characters and love-at-first-sight shenanigans and this comedy goes off the charts with laughter and love.

Magnolia Theatre Company
March 10-12
Dayton

Over the course of a parent/teacher conference, a grieving mother and an emotionally overwhelmed primary school teacher have a fraught conversation about the tragic suicide of the mother’s son, Gidion. Gidion may have been bullied severely—or he may have been an abuser. As his story is slowly uncovered, the women try to reconstruct a satisfying explanation for Gidion’s act and come to terms with excruciating feelings of culpability.
Join us for this regional premiere starring Amy Handra and MTC Artistic Associate Andrea Morales. Gidion’s Knot is directed by Michelle Hayford.
