MURDER BALLAD
Presented by Stone on a Walk Theatre
June 19-27
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by John Leo Muething
Orchestrations and vocal arrangements by Justn Levine

Cast: Luka Ashley Carter as Tom, Montez Uma as Michael, Lauren Carr as Sara & Katrina Reynolds as the Narrator

A love triangle gone wrong, this rock musical straight from New York centers on Sara, an Upper West Sider who seems to have it all, but whose downtown past lingers enticingly and dangerously in front of her. From the minute the Narrator presents a bat and proclaims that one of the lovers will die, we are propelled toward the inevitable doom in this all too familiar story of sex, compromises, betrayal, and deceit. Get immersed in the dive bar scene as you enter King’s Club, listen to the rock and blues play, and sense the passion of a story of “true love gone awry.”

THESPIS
Presented by Stone on a Walk Theatre
Aug. 21-23
Over-the-Rhine

Cast: Samuel Fisher as Thespis, Jonathan Long as Sparky, Linnea Bond as Nicole, Hannah Rah as Daphne, Michael Gettinger as Sebastian,  Jacob Zimmerman as Bryan, Tyler Minton as Dave & Aiden Sims as Mercury

The Roman gods have become too old and tired to perform their duties and they’re facing a serious lack of followers. In walks Thespis with his troupe of actors to take their places and save the day, but while they experiment with their new roles, the Universe hangs in the balance. Thespis was the first show written by Gilbert & Sullivan, the writing duo famous for Pirates of Penzance and H.M.S. Pinafore, but the final script and score were lost in a tragic fire. Now using the surviving pieces of the script (and a healthy dash of artistic license), Thespis and his rag-tag group of actors live to make blunders on a cosmic scale again to the delight of audiences of all ages

REPERTORY THEATRE
Presented by Stone on a Walk Theatre
July 24-26
Over-the-Rhine

Directed by John Leo Muething

Cast: Patrick Phillips as The Playwright & Jonathan Long as The Artistic Director

A young, timid playwright goes to the office of the artistic director of a prestigious national theatre to discuss his debut play (which is definitely not about his father). With the playwright struggling to follow the train of thought of the neurotic, Hamlet-obsessed, plum-eating director, the interview goes from nerve-wrecking to insane when the theatre itself seems to be joining into the mayhem.

CAIN
Presented by Stone on a Walk Theatre
June 26-28
Over-the-Rhine

Cain has grown up hearing stories of a long lost Eden and the punishment of death. As he turns ever more towards despair, his soul becomes the battle ground between his ever pious brother and Lucifer himself. While his wife fights to show him the beauties of life, Cain knows he must make a stand against Death. The beautiful poetry of Lord Byron and these larger than life characters are brought to life by three actresses and a family dinner. Cain’s struggle is sure to resonate with every person who has ever wondered where they fit in the universe.
