BCT_Sleeping Beauty and the Beast logoSLEEPING BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
Presented by Beavercreek Community Theatre
April 24-May 3
Beavercreek

This hysterically funny, timeless play follows the valiant quest of the bumbling but good-hearted Prince Charmless as he attempts with all his might to save Princess Rose from the wicked faerie and her sleep-induced curse. Along the way, Prince Charmless meets and befriends an adventurous Puss ‘N’ Boots, a snarling Snow White, the helpful Headless Horseman and a very lonely Beast. Sleeping Beauty and the Beast turns fairy tales upside down and the result is a lively, flat-out funny show for the whole family.

YOU’RE WELCOME Runs April 23-25

CCM_Youre Welcome promo 2YOU’RE WELCOME (A Cycle of Bad Plays)
Presented by UC College-Conservatory of Music Drama
April 23-25
University Heights

Directed by Brant Russell

Cast: Bartley Booz, Arielle DeVersterre, Andrew Iannacci, Spencer Lackey, Colleen Ladrick, Laura McCarthy, Devan Pruitt, Alison Sluiter & Emily Walton

YOU’RE WELCOME is a collection of five small plays about creation and failure; a unified theatrical myth that tells the story of an invented band of performers and their catastrophic attempts at connection. The plays are about love, death, desire, tragedy, comedy, drunk driving, sexiness, beauty, loss, the battle between good and evil, a baby born wearing a hat. And theater. They’re about theater. Kind of the last word on theater. This is You’re Welcome—five plays that pretty much nail it. You’re welcome!

Admission is free, but reservations are required. Tickets become available at noon on Monday, April 20. Visit the CCM Box Office or call 513-556-4183 to reserve. Limit two tickets per order.

DEATH AND THE MAIDEN is an award-winning moral thriller exploring the intricacies of memory and madness, the aftermath of violence, and the uncertainties of truth and justice.  A stranger arrives at the home of a woman who was once the prisoner of a cruel dictatorship in a nameless Latin American country.  Is the visitor who he claims to be — or is he the captor who raped and tortured her on behalf of the regime many years before?  Is this finally an opportunity for her to confront the past?  To exact revenge?  To forgive?  Or is her past trauma haunting her to the point of insanity?
