There is a deadly catch involved – and it is all recorded on live TV, of course. Since he’s in a tough luck position, how can he turn the offer down?

AN INSPECTOR CALLS

On an early April evening, 1912, the celebration dinner of a prosperous and prominent British family is interrupted when an Inspector calls, investigating the grisly suicide of a young working girl. One by one, the Inspector tears the family members out of their arrogance and complacency showing how each of them, in turn, is responsible for the girl’s death. What begins as a drawing room mystery turns to bombastic confrontations, and, in the end, a terrifying twist.

EXPECTING ISABEL
Presented by Dayton Theatre Guild
Feb. 28-March 16
Dayton

Directed by Robb Willoughby
Produced by Rick Flynn

Miranda and Nick, a couple nearing forty, are at last ready for a family, but are not so naturally successful. This very contemporary comedy by a playwright, a stand-up and a mother, examines the frustration, pain and confusion of a modern couple as they try various fertility techniques, new and old, simple and strange. They consider adoption and every other way to experience the final joy of becoming a modern parent.

THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES
Presented by Dayton Theatre Guild
Jan. 10-26
Dayton

Directed by Marcia Nowik
Produced by Debra Kent

Cast: Geoff Burkman as John Cleary, Angela Riley as Nettie Cleary & Alexander Chilton as Tim Cleary

This American Classic is about a dysfunctional family (before it became a common description) focusing on the return of a son from WWII. Shocking and disappointing his mother with his cursing and drinking, he seems to please his father just by having survived. His parents appear to be happy, but slowly the facade pulls away to reveal emotional wounds and problems yet to be resolved. The son feels responsible but is unable to fix the pain between his parents.

THE GIFTS OF THE MAGI

Cast: Bobby Mitchum as Willy, Meagan Kuchan as Della, Shawn Hooks as Jim, Jared Mola as The City: Him, Kelli Locker as The City: Her & Dave Nickle as Soapy

THE GIFTS OF THE MAGI is a combination of those beautiful stories we grew up with – the down-on-their-luck couple who have no Christmas present for each other, and the gentlemanly bum who just can’t get arrested so he can enjoy a warm cell and three square meals for the holiday. This is a little gem of a musical that brings a fresh, bright glow to the holiday season. Bring the whole family!!
