Jeremy Fischer & Tracy M. Schoster Earn LCT Awards for Falcon’s FROZEN

(CINCINNATI, APRIL 24, 2012)– The League of Cincinnati Theatres (LCT) has awarded Jeremy Fischer and Tracy M. Schoster with awards for leading actor and actress in a play for their performances in Falcon Theatre’s production of FROZEN. The drama by Bryony Lavery was a 2004 Tony Award nominee.

FROZEN is the story of three people whose lives are tied together by a single crime — the murder of a 10-year-old girl. The girl’s mother (Schoster), her killer (Fischer) and a psychiatrist studying the case are all emotionally frozen by it. But as their lives become intertwined through the repercussions of this horrible event, they also begin to experience the thawing effect of forgiveness.

According to one LCT panelist, “Falcon Theatre has gathered an amazingly talented ensemble for its chilling production of the play FROZEN. The two main characters played by Tracy M. Schoster and Jeremy Fischer are thoroughly developed and nuanced, giving the audience a great sense of empathy and emotional connection. It’s not often that audience members react to actors’ performances in such a physical and emotional way as I witnessed at the theatre.”

Fischer is making his Cincinnati theatrical debut. He holds an MFA from the Clarence Brown Theatre Conservatory at the University of Tennessee. Schoster is a Falcon veteran, who has appeared previously in the theatre’s productions of “Down the Road” and “Hamlet,” among others.

FROZEN continues through May 5. Details and ticket information can be found at falcontheater.net.

The League of Cincinnati Theatres was founded in 1999 to strengthen, nurture and promote Cincinnati’s theatre community. LCT provides its member companies and individual members with education, resources and services to enhance the quality and exposure of the theatre community in Cincinnati and increase community awareness, attendance and involvement. More information about the League can be found at www.leagueofcincytheatres.info.

Falcon Presents Emotional FROZEN April 20-May 5

Ginger Stapp, Jeremy Fischer & Tracy Schoster in FROZEN.

Falcon continues its season this April with the award-winning drama FROZEN, featuring Jeremy Fischer, Tracy Schoster and Ginger Stapp and directed by Terry Gosdin. FROZEN, a 2004- Tony nominated play written by Bryony Lavery, is the story of three people tied to a single crime– the murder of a 10-year-old girl, Rhona: her mother, her killer, and the psychiatrist brought in to analyze the killer. All three are emotionally frozen in some way and as they interact and their lives become intertwined, become “unfrozen” as they come to terms with the idea of forgiveness.

The talented cast includes Jeremy Fischer, who is making his Cincinnati theatrical premiere. He holds an MFA from the Clarence Brown Theatre Conservatory at the Univesrity of Tennessee, where he studied under Blake Robison, the newly-minted Artistic Director at Playhouse in the Park, who directed him in “As You Like It.” He was previously an Equity actor in New York, where he also appeared in “Courage Under Fire,” “Dawson’s Creek” and “Sex and the City.” Tracy Schoster, no stranger to the Falcon stage, portrays Nancy, the mother of the murdered daughter and Ginger Stapp, a local stage favorite making her Falcon debut, portrays Agnetha, the psychiatrist.

FROZEN is directed by Terry Gosdin, who is making his Cincinnati directorial debut (and his first directorial project in 13 years) though he is a familiar face at both Falcon and other theaters in the area.

Falcon is also a pioneer in local theatrical social media, offering the first local “social media seats” for their previous show, “The 39 Steps”. Due to the small size of the show, these seats will not be offered at FROZEN, but feel free to tweet, Facebook or Instagram during intermission or after the show using the Hashtag #FalconFrozen. Falcon can be found on Twitter at @falcontheatre and on Facebook at facebook.com/falcontheater

Frozen runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8 PM from April 20-May 5 at the Monmouth Theater, 636 Monmouth Street, Newport KY 41071. Tickets may be purchased at falcontheatre.net and a limited amount of discounted tickets are available at goldstar.com. Tickets are $17, $15 for seniors and students.

Due to mature themes, FROZEN is recommended for those 17 and up.

Falcon is proud to have Yelp as their season sponsor and is supported by ArtsWave and the Purdy Foundation.

This taut drama explores the world of three characters who’s lives intersect in the most violent way. A mother,a serial killer and a psychologist take us deep into the events of a terrible crime and its aftermath. The quiet power of this play is at once horrifying and mesmerizing.
