THE PIANO LESSON Review

Review by Katrina “Kat” Reynolds

Lester Purry as Wining Boy & James T. Alfred as Boy Willie.

THE PIANO LESSON presented by Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park through May 3rd. I attended the opening night performance. 

This spring Moe and Jack Rouse, Randolph Wadsworth, and your Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park are celebrating the words of August Wilson with a production of his play The Piano Lesson. This co-production with the Milwaukee Repertory Theater takes us to the time of the Great Depression and tells the story of a dispute between two siblings over a family heirloom – and garnered Mr. Wilson his second Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

Director Lou Bellamy does an excellent job keeping up the momentum of this lengthy drama. Scenes do not fall stagnant and pacing is solid. Set Design by Vicki Smith is rich and layered; however, stage left could have benefitted from some extra touches (a runner on the household steps or a rug on the inside of the door). But make no mistake: the set is easy for the actors to navigate and complements Mr. Bellamy’s vision. Costumes designed by Mathew J. LeFebvre are bold, colourful, and a fine contrast against the home’s modest décor.

The group of artists chosen to perform Mr. Wilson’s timeless text is an embarrassment of riches. James Craven is exceptional as Doaker Charles, the uncle trying to referee the disagreements between his niece and nephew. Mr. Craven brings a deep understanding to his role and gives us a masterclass on how to convey the complicated emotions of being human with ease. Nubia Monks plays Berniece, Doaker’s niece who lives with him along with her young daughter. Berniece is a single woman of colour in the 1930s who is raising a daughter, working ungodly hours, and trying to figure out how to take care of her own peace in the little time she has left to even consider it. Ms. Monks’ talents are boundless and her portrayal of the strong yet sensitive heroine will leave you speechless. (Plus I need her to sing to me daily.)

Special shoutout to La’Tevin Alexander in the role of Lymon. Mr. Alexander is delightfully likable as the genuine, rough-around-the-edges family friend who finds himself caught up in the disagreement in ways he could not have envisioned. He brings an expert physicality to his role along with a special something which can make one blush and want to embrace Lymon, flaws and all.

This is a difficult call to make, but I do believe The Piano Lesson is my favourite August Wilson play I have seen to date. Most people can relate to the heightened emotions which tend to accompany items considered family heirlooms – especially if not everyone is on the same page about them. Ghosts from our past can be friendly or can haunt us mercilessly and it is up to us to figure out how to live with them in harmony. Suffice it to say, I believe this might be one of those times where the ending we witness on stage gives the audience exactly what is needed.

MADE IN CINCY: New Works Festival at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park Runs May 8-9

MADE IN CINCY: New Works Festival
Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park
May 8-9
Rehearsal Studio [Eden Park]

Fri, May 8 at 7pm SOLD OUT, waiting list available
CHURCH OF BROKEN THINGS by Maggie Lou Rader

Three girls grow up to become young women in rural, turn of the 21st century, Sleeper, Oklahoma. They navigate friendship, faith, sexuality and danger in a town where hypocrisy is inherited and silence is survival. Spanning childhood through adolescence, the play tracks how the girls are shaped by institutions meant to protect them: church, family, school and law. Ferociously funny and devastatingly honest, The Church of Broken Things captures the raw confusion of girlhood in a world that demands purity while excusing harm. A coming-of-age story about belief as refuge and weapon, and the fierce bond that forms when girls refuse to look away.

Sat, May 9 at 1pm
THE MINK by Isaiah Reaves

New Orleans, 1959. Christmas Eve. One lavish mink coat and far too many people who want it. When Wyatt, a young Black playwright and occasional escort, is gifted a stunning mink by a powerful white mayoral candidate, a simple goodbye spirals into a razor-sharp farce about secrecy, desire and survival in the Jim Crow South. As the coat changes hands, chaos erupts: a crumbling political campaign, a meddling sister-in-law, a conniving fiancée, a hysterical son and a web of lies that can longer hold. With fast-paced dialogue, bold characters, and a little ancestral magic, this is a play about claiming your dignity —even when the world insists you give it back.

Sat, May 9 from 5-6pm
FESTIVAL PANEL DISCUSSION
With playwrights Nathan Alan Davis, Maggie Lou Radar and Isaiah Reaves. Followed by Happy Hour.

Sat, May 9 at 7pm
OHIO RIVER PRAYERS by Nathan Alan Davis

In antebellum Cincinnati, the Fugitive Slave Act tightens its grip and Zavia shelters eleven fugitive children in her home on the edge of the Ohio River, praying faith will hold where law has failed. Her beliefs become a battleground when a white bounty hunter arrives, her estranged husband returns hardened by violence and her son Asa refuses to meet cruelty with force. Surrounded by danger and guided by three formidable elder women, Zavia must decide what faith demands when mercy and survival are no longer aligned. Written in searing verse and shot through with dark humor, Ohio River Prayers is a tragic, urgent reckoning with resistance, inheritance and the unbearable cost of choosing how to fight.

TENDERLY: THE ROSEMARY CLOONEY MUSICAL Returns to Cincinnati Playhouse March 21

CINCINNATI  – One of the most beloved entertainers of all time comes home to Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park in the exhilarating and inspiring musical biography TENDERLY: THE ROSEMARY CLOONEY MUSICAL, opening in previews March 21. Presented by Ellen and Ray van der Horst, the show runs through May 17 in the Rosenthal Shelterhouse Theatre. Opening night is March 26.

The musical follows Clooney’s meteoric rise from Maysville, KY, to Cincinnati to Hollywood, her battles with addiction and depression and her eventual comeback. The story unfolds at Clooney’s therapy sessions with her life-long doctor who she admired and trusted. Nineteen songs help tell the tale, including some of her most popular: “Come On A-My House,” “Tenderly,” “Sisters,” “Mambo Italiano,” “Hey There,” “Botch-A-Me” and more.

TENDERLY enjoyed a sold-out, extended run at the Playhouse in 2014. Since then, it’s been a hit for theatres across the country. Michael Marotta, who performed in the original Playhouse production, returns to direct TENDERLY after performing in and directing numerous productions nationwide, bringing a depth of experience and insight into the all-new production.

“I have learned so much from doing this show,” Marotta said. “From the women whom I’ve played opposite and examining their interpretations to the audience who adored her and had to learn things they were not prepared for. From directors who shared insights that were new to me or exposed misgivings that I had to challenge. Being an old Hollywood film buff, I consider myself well-versed in the rights and wrongs in telling a story like this one.”

Cincinnati-based playwrights and songwriters Janet Yates Vogt and Mark Friedman based the musical on extensive interviews and Clooney’s two biographies, offering a personal portrait of the woman whose unparalleled talent and unbridled personality made her a legend. 

“There are so many layers to her story,” Vogt said. “Of course, there is her unique and lush voice that captures the ear from the very first word she sings in every song — truly mesmerizing. But behind that voice is a compelling story of a woman who meets some very difficult challenges in her life head-on. Rosie was always very forthright about sharing those moments, and I find so much inspiration in her honesty. Her ability to push forward as she reinvented herself, both personally and professionally, continually broadening her horizons as an artist and singer, is a life lesson for all of us.”

THE PIANO LESSON Runs April 11-May 3

August Wilson’s THE PIANO LESSON
Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park
April 11-May 3
Rouse Theatre [Eden Park]

Directed by Lou Bellamy

August Wilson’s explosive, award-winning play is a gripping story of family, legacy and the choices that define us. During the Great Depression, Berniece and her brother Boy Willie clash over the fate of the family’s cherished, heirloom piano. Decorated with intricate carvings done by their enslaved ancestor, she treasures the piano’s storied history, and he sees it as the means to a more prosperous life. The ghosts of the past collide with the promise of the future in this Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece from August Wilson’s epic American Century Cycle that explores the complexities of identity and belonging. Advisory: THE PIANO LESSON is recommended for older teenage and adult audiences. As conflicts arise around the fate of their family’s heirloom piano, characters use adult language (including frequent use of the n-word) and explore mature topics including racism, death, murder, illegal activity, sex and violence.

Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park Announces 2026-27 Season, Including World Premiere by Theresa Rebeck & Inaugural MADE IN CINCINNATI: New Works Festival

Season also features two new thrillers for the stage, Pulitzer Prize-winners and the return of CINCINNATI KING

CINCINNATI – Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park today announced its 2026-27 season, including the world premiere of Theresa Rebeck’s commissioned media satire TALK, the centerpiece of its inaugural Made in Cincy: New Works Festival. Other season highlights: two new thrillers for the stage, the regional premiere of the Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning PURPOSE and the return of the hit musical about King Records, CINCINNATI KING.

“Our goal for the Made in Cincy: New Works Festival is to create a platform where local and national artists can be seen, supported and celebrated,” said Blake Robsion, Osborn Family Producing Artistic Director. “The festival will develop and premiere plays and musicals that become part of the American canon — works by some of the country’s most compelling artists —while simultaneously highlighting the artistic excellence of our local community for audiences across the nation. Who is better to help us launch this annual endeavor than Theresa Rebeck? Not only is she a prolific, nationally-recognized playwright, but she grew up right here in Cincinnati.”

Made in Cincy: New Works Festival will pilot this spring during the week of May 4, with public readings and events on May 8 and 9, 2026. The May events will feature local writers and Resident Artists Isaiah Reaves and Maggie Lou Rader, as well as nationally recognized playwright Nathan Alan Davis, who will workshop a brand-new commissioned play. Davis’s play Origin Story was produced by the Playhouse in 2023.

The official launch of Made in Cincy: New Works Festival will take place this fall. Development work with artists will occur during the week of September 28, culminating in a schedule of events on October 3 and 4, 2026. TALK runs September 26 to October 25, with official opening night on October 1.

Rebeck is an award-winning and widely produced playwright, television and film writer and novelist, whose work can be seen and read throughout the United States and abroad. She is the most Broadway-produced female playwright of our time. Her Broadway plays include Dead Accounts, which had its world premiere at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park.

Other 2026-27 season titles include Arun Lakra’s high-tech thriller HEIST; Brandon Jacob-Jenkin’s Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning PURPOSE; the return of the hit musical about King Records, CINCINNATI KING by KJ Sanchez; Jeffrey Hatcher’s new adaptation of the psychological thriller ROPE; and the regional premiere of Douglas Lyons witty rom-com, TABLE 17.

“From Pulitzer Prize winners and edge of your seat suspense to romantic comedy and musical celebrations, our new season offers the variety that Playhouse audiences have come to know and love,” said Robison. “We’ve put together an exciting and bold mix of storytelling, including some fun genres you might usually associate with film – thrillers, crime capers and rom-com – that will have uniquely theatrical stagings to entertain live audiences.”

The 2026-27 Season features:

  • Edge of your seat suspense in HEIST, a high-tech crime caper, and ROPE, a psychological thriller known for the Hitchcock film of the same name.
  • A celebration of Cincinnati’s rich music history with the return of the King Records musical CINCINNATI KING.
  • The witty romantic comedy TABLE 17 and a heartfelt, humorous look at dating in THE TWELVE DATES OF CHRISTMAS.
  • Pulitzer Prize winners PURPOSE, the celebrated Broadway play and winner of the Tony Award, and I AM MY OWN WIFE, based on a fascinating true story.
  • TALK, a world premiere and razor-sharp satire by award-winning Broadway playwright and Cincinnati native Theresa Rebeck and centerpiece of the inaugural Made in Cincy: New Works Festival.
  • GET HAPPY: ANGELA INGERSOLL SINGS JUDY GARLAND, a special concert event featuring an Emmy-nominated performance seen on PBS.
