Her pink indulgence lands her at the doctor’s office with Pinkititis, an affliction that turns her pink from head to toe – a dream come true for this pink-loving enthusiast.

FROM WHITE PLAINS Runs Feb. 14-22

XUT_From White PlainsFROM WHITE PLAINS
Presented by Xavier University Theatre
Feb. 14-22
Evanston

Directed by Craig Wesley Divino

After a shocking announcement on international television, 30-year-old Ethan Rice finds himself finally having to confront who he was and what he did as a teenager.

From White Plains follows four men, straight and gay, as they attempt to take responsibility for past actions and move beyond them, aided and frustrated by social media and viral videos. The play examines how male relationships change as boys grow into men and asks who speaks for a victim of bullying when he is no longer here to speak for himself.

Just because it gets better doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

On a cold, clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not quite what it seems in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, Almost’s residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken.

4000 MILES Runs Feb. 8-March 9

PIP_4000 Miles4000 MILES
Presented by Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park
Feb. 8-March 9
Eden Park

Directed by Artistic Director Blake Robison

Cast: Christine Lin as Amanda/Lily, Rosemary Prinz as Vera Joseph, Robbie Tann as Leo Joseph-Connell & Adina Verson as Bec

A heartwarming exploration of growing up, growing old and discovering the moments in-between. It’s the middle of the night when 21-year-old Leo shows up dazed and disheveled at his feisty 91-year-old grandmother’s Greenwich Village apartment. While his arrival marks the end of a life-changing cross-country bike trip, Leo’s journey is far from over. These unlikely roommates infuriate, bewilder and ultimately connect as they find their way in the world. Advisory: 4000 MILES is recommended for adult and older teenage audiences. It is a lovely relationship play, but it does contain adult themes and strong adult language.
