ZTC_Rocky HorrorTHE ROCKY HORROR (PUPPET) SHOW
Presented by Zoot Theatre Company
Oct. 11-Nov. 2
Dayton

Directed by John Faas

The sweet transvestite and his motley crew will hit the stage in an entirely new way and for the first time ever. A much different take on this classic, yet campy musical this deliberately kitschy rock ‘n’ roll sci-fi Gothic is more fun than ever and let’s face it…it’s going to be done like ONLY Zoot can do! Caution: adult themes and strong language are used. Recommended for those ages 16 and up.

Reviews: Behind the Curtain | Enquirer |

Directed by Buz Davis

THE WHALE is a humorous and heartbreaking look at how we cope with loss, family and religion — a trifecta of taboos. The play stars Reggie Willis as Charlie, a morbidly obese college writing professor who is trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter.

Carrie White is a misfit. At school, she is an outcast who is bullied by the popular crowd and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she is at the mercy of her loving but cruelly over-protective mother. But Carrie has just discovered she has a special power and, if pushed too far, she is not afraid to use it. Based on Stephen King’s bestselling novel, the musical version of Carrie has not been seen since its legendary 1988 Broadway production. Now, the show’s original authors have crafted a newly reworked and fully re-imagined vision of this gripping tale. For mature audiences.

Admission is free but reservations are required. Tickets become available at noon on Mon, Oct. 7 – visit the CCM Box Office or call 513.556.4183 to reserve. Limit two tickets per order.

Catherine’s got the sexy rockstar academic career that every Ph.D. dreams about: another book out, TV appearances, and an upcoming speaking engagement in Italy. So what’s she doing outside a bar, drunk-dialing her grad school ex-best friend, Gwen, now a stay-at-home mother and housewife married to Catherine’s old flame? Both women, coveting each other’s choices, attempt to find the happiness and fulfillment they lack by commencing a dangerous game of musical chairs, with surprising and hilarious results. This production contains strong language and adult themes and may not be suitable for all audiences.
