The Carnegie Theatre in Collaboration with NKU School of the Arts Presents KEEPER OF THE REALM

TC_Keeper of the Realm logoThe new play by D. Lynn Meyers runs April 1-16

COVINGTON, Ky (March 1, 2022) – The Carnegie proudly continues its 2021-22 Theatre Series with KEEPER OF THE REALM, a new play by Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati’s Producing Artistic Director, D. Lynn Meyers, playing on the Otto M. Budig stage weekends April 1-16, 2022.

What happens when middle-aged parents unexpectedly pass, and their twenty-something children get together to decide what happens to their family house and possessions? Add in the parents who haven’t quite moved on and a mysterious person with an eye for encyclopedias. KEEPER OF THE REALM is about those we love and what is never truly lost.

The Carnegie and NKU School of the Arts is working together to produce this new play by Meyers. The bold pairing of educational and creative goals has allowed the students of NKU’s School of the Arts Theatre + Dance Program to work intimately with Meyers to workshop and refine the new playscript throughout the ‘21-22 school year. The Carnegie is debuting this world premier script and kicking off the 20th anniversary of NKU’s YES Festival (The Year End Series), the oldest collegiate new-play festival in the country. The YES Festival will host three world-premiere plays, including this first-ever regional collaboration.

“The Carnegie is proud to partner with D. Lynn Meyers and NKU on this production to bring an amazing show to Northern Kentucky,” said Maggie Perrino, Theatre Director at The Carnegie. “In her extensive career, Meyers has directed more than 100 world and regional premieres at Ensemble Theatre. In combination with her work with students from the NKU School of the Arts, guests can expect a one-of-a-kind performance that will tug at your heartstrings.”

Performances of KEEPER OF THE REALM run weekends April 1-16, with an initial Friday, April 1 performance at 7:30 p.m. followed by performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., and Sundays at 3 p.m. Tickets are $25-$28. Tickets can be purchased through The Carnegie Box Office, open Tuesday-Friday noon–5 p.m., in person or by phone at (859) 957-1940, or online at www.thecarnegie.com. Patrons seeking group or student tickets should call to make arrangements. Digital production programs will be available at each performance.

The Carnegie’s 2021-22 Theatre Series is presented by the Otto M. Budig Family Foundation. Additional support for The Carnegie’s Theatre Series comes from the Kentucky Tourism, Arts & Heritage Cabinet.

Sara Mackie’s Cabaret is CHEAPER THAN THERAPY on Feb. 19

An Intimate Musical Stroll Through One Actor/Singer’s Head

TC_Cheaper Than Therapy

Sara Mackie (AEA, SAG/AFTRA) Is a Cincinnati based performer who joyfully used to interrupt Algebra II class when she would randomly burst into song.  You see, there is a song for every occasion. You would have seen her most often on the boards at Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati, and most recently she has appeared at The Human Race Theatre Co. and Cincinnati Shakespeare Co. It is her lifelong dream to gather strangers in a room to sing songs and tell stories related to her most intimate and/or embarrassing experiences. Ms. Mackie has yet to use a single thing she may have learned in Algebra II.

Matthew Umphreys is a Cincinnati-based pianist who is equally at home in opera, chamber music, jazz and musical theater. Matthew works as a coach, pianist and music director for Cincinnati Opera, The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati, and the Schmidt Vocal Institute. In 2018 Matthew co-founded Queen City Cabaret, a new jazz and theatrical cabaret concert series celebrating the rich past, present and future of the Cincinnati music scene.

Tickets are $25 for the 7:30pm live performance at The Carnegie’s Budig Theatre. Streaming tickets are available for $15, more details below.

STREAMING TICKET: Advance ticket purchasers will receive a link by 6pm the day of the show. Streaming tickets will be available up to showtime with an instant link sent via email. No actual ticket is required. The streaming link will be available for viewing indefinitely, for those not available at showtime.
