Directors Needed for 2017-2018 Season at Lebanon Theatre Company

LTC_logoLebanon Theatre Company will be conducting interviews with interested Directors for our 2017-2018 season.

Our typical season at LTC consists of two plays and a musical.  The plays can be comedies, dramas or suspense thrillers.  Generally we have one production in the fall, to start our season, then a show in late winter/early spring with a musical ending the season in May.

We also add a holiday show that is generally themed and cast for more children to participate.  We put on a show cast with young actors in the summer as well.

Please visit our website,  ltcplays.com, to see information about our previous seasons.

We ask that interested directors prepare a brief synopsis of the show that the wish to direct as well as present their vision for that show.  You may pitch as many shows as you like, but we ask that you try to keep the number of shows to three.

Interviews will be conducted on October 1st, starting at 10am at LTC’s Mechanic Street Playhouse, 10 S. Mechanic St., Lebanon, OH.

To reserve a time for an interview please email Brian Smith at briansmithjewelry@gmail.combriansmithjewelry@gmail.com.

CRIMES OF THE HEART Runs Sept. 16-25

LTC_Crimes of the Heart logoCRIMES OF THE HEART
Lebanon Theatre Company
Sept. 16-25
Lebanon

Directed by Cherie Cooper-Darragh
Produced by Jessica Tucker

The scene is Hazlehurst, Mississippi, where the three Magrath sisters have gathered to await news of the family patriarch, their grandfather, who is living out his last hours in the local hospital. Lenny, the oldest sister, is unmarried at thirty and facing diminishing marital prospects; Meg, the middle sister, who quickly outgrew Hazlehurst, is back after a failed singing career on the West Coast; while Babe, the youngest, is out on bail after having shot her husband in the stomach. Their troubles, grave and yet, somehow, hilarious, are highlighted by their priggish cousin, Chick, and by the awkward young lawyer who tries to keep Babe out of jail while helpless not to fall in love with her. In the end the play is the story of how its young characters escape the past to seize the future—but the telling is so true and touching and consistently hilarious that it will linger in the mind long after the curtain has descended.

  • Fri, Sept. 16 at 6pm (includes dinner)
  • Sat, Sept. 17 at 8pm
  • Sun, Sept. 18 at 2pm
  • Fri-Sat, Sept. 23-24 at 8pm

PICASSO AT THE LAPIN AGILE Runs July 22-31

LTC_Picasso at the Lapin Agile logoPICASSO AT THE LAPIN AGILE
Lebanon Theatre Company
July 22-31
Lebanon

Cast: Jacob Campbell as Pablo Picasso, Kevin Wall as Albert Einstein, Spencer Berta as Charles Dabernow Schmendiman, Dana Clark as Germaine, Rachel Brandenburg as Suzanne, Kase Corstanje as Freddy, Sophie Janidlo as The Countess, Jacob Van Atta as Gaston, Cole Hankins as Singer & Sophie Janidlo as a Female Admirer

This long running Off-Broadway absurdist comedy places Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian cafe in 1904, just before the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with cubism. In his first comedy for the stage, Steve Martin plays fast and loose with fact, fame and fortune as these two geniuses muse on the century’s achievements and prospects as well as other fanciful topics with infectious dizziness.

Bystanders, including Picasso’ agent, the bartender and his mistress, Picasso’s date, an elderly philosopher, Charles Dabernow Schmendimen, and an idiot inventor introduce additional flourishes of humor. The final surprise patron to join the merriment at the Lapin Agile is a charismatic dark haired singer time warped in from a later era.
