THE OTHER PLACE
Presented by Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati
Jan. 27-Feb. 15
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by D. Lynn Meyers

Cast: Regina Pugh as Juliana, Michael G. Bath as Ian, Kelly Mengelkoch as The Woman & Billy Chace as The Man

REGIONAL PREMIERE. Juliana Smithton, an accomplished scientist and pharmaceuticals pitch-woman, is a dominating personality who’s always in command, but recently her life has become unhinged. Her husband has filed for divorce, her daughter has eloped with a much older man, and her own health hangs in jeopardy. However, in this brilliantly troubling and unexpectedly humorous play, nothing is as it seems. Piece by piece, a mystery unfolds as fact blurs with fiction and the elusive truth about Juliana boils to the surface. Approximate running time: 1 hour, 20 minutes with no intermission. Content Advisory: This production contains strong language and adult themes and may not be suitable for all audiences.

It was said that George Washington could not tell a lie and Abraham Lincoln was known as “Honest Abe”.  The past X-number of decades, however, have taught us that honesty is not necessarily a pre-requisite for the job anymore, so who knows?  …we might have a future president on our stage for this show where lies spin out of control and make things worse or, seemingly make them better.  But whatever you do, please don’t condemn our storytellers.  What is a lie and what is truth is not always so easy to discern.

The mission of True Theatre is to bring together a wide variety of people to share stories in an effort to create community, encourage discussion, and remind everyone that ALL of us have stories to tell with unique insights and broad appeal.

2014 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 150,000 times in 2014. If it were an exhibit at the Louvre Museum, it would take about 6 days for that many people to see it.

AND BABY MAKES SEVEN on Jan. 12

QCQTC_And Baby Makes SevenAND BABY MAKES SEVEN
Presented by Queen City Queer Theatre Collective
Jan. 12
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by Lindsey Augusta Mercer

Cast: Maggie Lou Rader, Justin McCombs, Erin McCamley & C. Aiden Marie Sims

The play tells the story of Anna and Ruth, a lesbian couple, who enlist their gay friend Peter to help them create a family. But are any of them ready for parenthood? Tensions rise as the three adults prepare for the imminent arrival of their baby—and matters are made all the more challenging by the persistence of the three imaginary children who already live with them. The lines between fantasy and reality, child and adult, love and madness crisscross through this hysterically funny and deeply touching play about what it means to be a family.
