Know Theatre of Cincinnati
April 21-May 13
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by Tamara Winters

Cast: Darnelle Pierre Benjamin, Tess Talbot & Josh Katawick

A former slave with a tragic past questions his faith, a powerful man fights his inner and outer demons, and a precocious young woman locked in a room reluctantly awaits word from God. It’s 1844 and in the small town of Nauvoo, Illinois, Joseph Smith—Mormon prophet—rules all. Or so he believes. Know Theatre is thrilled to produce the World Premiere of this play by award-winning playwright Kara Lee Corthron, originally commissioned by South Coast Rep.

HEAVIER THAN… Runs March 10-April 1

heavier-than-coming-soon-to-know-theatre-image-by-dan-r-winters-1HEAVIER THAN…
Know Theatre of Cincinnati
March 10-April 1
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by Bridget Leak

Cast: Piper Davis as Pasiphae, Landon Horton as Asterius, Jordan Trovillion as Ariadne, Nathan Tubbs as Icarus & Nicole Hershey, Miranda McGee & Maggie Lou Rader as the Chorus

This darkly comic mash-up of Greek myth unfolds in the heart of a labyrinth where Aster the Minotaur contemplates turning 30 in a world that sees him as nothing more than a murderous oddity. Aster has to navigate the impending arrival of warriors out to kill him, a deceptively enticing chorus of Fates, a plotting sister, and Icarus, a sexually obsessed boy with wings, all while pining to see his estranged Mother.
