SBM_The Odd CoupleTHE ODD COUPLE
Presented by the Showboat Majestic
June 12-30
Downtown

This classic comedy opens as a group of the guys assembled for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean-freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as THE ODD COUPLE is born.

THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES Encore Presentation
Presented by Cincinnati Shakespeare Company
June 7-30
Downtown

The legendary detective Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Dr. Watson are on the job to investigate the mysterious case of the “hound of hell” that stalks the moors. This fast-paced farcical adaptation of the classic novel is performed by only three actors tackling dozens of roles.  Physical humor and visual gags will make this production a laugh out loud treat this summer.  Will the courageous detective and his men survive the mystery of Baskerville Hall…and each other? The game is afoot in the regional premiere of this exciting adaptation of THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES.

Directed by Michael Evan Haney

Cast: Jeremy Dubin, Nicholas Rose & Brent Vimtrup

Leave the kids at home and get ready for some ridiculous, riotous and downright raunchy puppet behavior in this 2004 triple Tony Award® winner. Come sing along with Princeton, a fresh-faced college grad, and all his wacky new neighbors living way, way, way out on New York City’s Avenue Q. The life lessons come fast and funny as he learns that “It Sucks to Be Me,” “The Internet Is for Porn” and “Everyone’s a Little Bit Racist.” Presented in collaboration with the puppet masters at The Zoot Theatre Company, it’s laugh-out-loud musical mayhem that’s not for the little ones or the faint of heart.

BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS Runs June 6-16

FLI_Brighton BeachBRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS
Presented by Footlighters Inc.
June 6-16
Newport

Directed by Jerry Wiesenhahn

Cast: Noah Lentini as Eugene Jerome, Joel Lind as Jack Jerome, Cathy Ross as Kate Jerome, Blake Gehring as Stanley Jerome, Mary Ann Smith as Blanche Morton, Morgan Carter Woodring as Nora Morton & Melody Lindsey as Laurie Morton

Neil Simon, a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, is widely regarded as one of America’s funniest stage authors. Brighton Beach Memoirs, a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story, has been called “his funniest, richest and consequently the most affecting of his plays” by the New York Daily News. It’s 1937 and 15-year old Eugene Morris Jerome lives with his family in a crowded, lower middle-class Brooklyn walk-up. Dreaming of baseball and girls, Eugene must cope with the mundane existence of his family life in Brooklyn: formidable mother, overworked father, and his worldly older brother Stanley. Throw into the mix his widowed Aunt Blanche and her two young (but rapidly developing) daughters and you have a recipe for hilarity, served up Simon-style.
