HAPPY DAYS
Diogenes Theatre Company
May 12-22
Aronoff Fifth Third Theatre [Downtown]

Directed by Michael Evan Haney

Cast: Amy Warner as Winnie & Michael Sommers as Willie

A woman buried up to her waist. A man sleeping in a hole. A revolver. Another happy day! In Samuel Beckett’s comic allegory on the human condition — his most uplifting play — Winnie keeps her sanity and optimistic outlook on life while facing greater and greater adversity.

XACT_Black Coffee logoBLACK COFFEE
Xenia Area Community Theatre
May 27-June 5
Xenia

Directed by Tony Copper

Cast: Deb Zweber as Miss Tredwell, Sara Duibley as Lucia Amory, Cheryl Dern as Miss Caroline Amory, Brian Louis as Richard Amory, Kylee Pauley as Barbara Amory, Russ Dern as Edward Raynor, Patrick Taylor as Dr. Carelli, Harry Wayne Shepard as Sir Claude Amory, Joe DeTore as Hercule Poirot, Wayne Wolfe as Captain Arthur Hastings, Edith Waugh as Dr. Graham, John T. Weeks as Inspector Jimmy Japp & Tobey McKee as Constable Johnson

This little known mystery will surprise and delight Christie fans. Written in 1934, the story concerns a physicist named Sir Claude Amory who has come up with a formula for an atom bomb. In the first act, Sir Claude is poisoned (in his coffee, naturally) and Hercule Poirot is called in to solve the case. He does so after many wonderful twists and turns in true Christie fashion.
