ANNE OF GREEN GABLES
Cincinnati Classical Academy
April 10-12
CCA Sojourner Truth Auditorium [Reading]

The play follows the story of the feisty orphan, Anne Shirely. Adopted from an orphanage in Nova Scotia by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, Anne Shirely’s acclimation to life in Avonlea isn’t exactly smooth sailing. The Cuthbert siblings wanted a quiet boy to help out around their farm, but instead they recieve Anne, a redheaded, freckle-faced, free spirit who turns their lives upside down with her quirky behaviour. Follow Anne as she navigates school, friendship, and life in Avonlea through this charming coming-of-age tale.

THE GUY WHO DIDN’T LIKE MUSICALS Runs Dec. 6-14

THE GUY WHO DIDN’T LIKE MUSICALS
Cincinnati Actor’s Studio & Academy
Dec. 6-14
Essex Studios Rm 282B [Avondale]

Cast: Isabel Acevedo, Char Adams, Maria Blaker, Conner Beierle, E. Carr, Gina Cerimele-Mechley, Trey Daumeyer, Eli Davis, Em Ivanov, Janet Langhorst, Naomi Manson, Jackie Merz, Eva Moore, Serenity Newell-Goodwin, Kayamarie Roll, Meg Roulier, Elsie Routt, Kate Stuard-Neal, Katelyn Thatcher, Phia Veshapidze & Max Winski

Everything in Hatchetfield seemed normal until people began singing… Then, they began dancing… And now, a musical pandemic is sweeping the entire city. It’s up to Paul (an average guy who doesn’t like musicals) and his friends to stop this musical apocalypse and fight for humanity’s future. Content Warning:  the show uses “colorful language”, sexual innuendo,
and drinking.

  • Fri-Sun, Dec. 6-8 at 7:30pm

RENT Runs July 12-21

CAST_RentRENT: School Edition
Commonwealth Artists Student Theatre
July 12-21
Turpin High School [Anderson Township]

Based loosely on Puccini’s La Boheme, Jonathan Larson’s Rent follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York’s Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS. The physical and emotional complications of the disease pervade the lives of Roger, Mimi, Tom, and Angel. Maureen deals with her chronic infidelity through performance art; her partner, Joanne, wonders if their relationship is worth the trouble. Benny has sold out his Bohemian ideals in exchange for a hefty income and is on the outs with his former friends. Mark, an aspiring filmmaker, feels like an outsider to life in general. How these young bohemians negotiate their dreams, loves and conflicts provides the narrative thread to this groundbreaking musical.
