Sondheim’s darkly entertaining musical is a classic of modern musical theater. Falcon first produced this show in 1998 to rave reviews. It helped define our path toward the future and established us as a powerful voice in Greater Cincinnati theater. To celebrate our 25th anniversary season, we’re bringing this show back for an entirely new production. Join is as we welcome back John Wilkes Boothe, Squeaky Fromme, Sam Byck, Lee Harvey Oswald and all the other unsavory characters who ever decided that their path to greatness lay in the assassination of an American President. It’s a different look at some historical events and one you won’t soon forget.

THE ADDAMS FAMILY is a magnificently macabre new musical comedy created by Jersey Boys authors Marshall Brickman & Rick Eliceand Drama Desk Award winner Andrew Lippa (The Wild Party). It features an original story, and it’s every father’s nightmare. Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family. A man her parents have never met. And if that weren’t upsetting enough, she confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before — keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

Presented by The Ohio Stage Company

In the West Village of Manhattan, Jimmy Zoole, a thirty-ish actor is having a run of bad luck. He’s been robbed twice (they even took the only copy of his first novel), fired from a play, has a cat on the critical list, a girl friend who’s leaving, and he discovers a burglar hiding in his loft. To avenge his life, he ties “Vito” to the kitchen sink and keeps him prisoner over the long New Year’s Eve.
