Broadway in Cincinnati Presents School of Rock

Last week we were able to spend a night on the town in Cincinnati and see Broadway in Cincinnati’s latest and greatest show, the School of Rock.  This show was fantastic, and the best part about the show was the incredibly talented cast of children.  They could sing, they could act, and they could even...
Cincy Shakes Presents Tom Sawyer

Cincy Shakes Presents Tom Sawyer

Tom Sawyer premiered this weekend at Cincy Shakes and will run through December 9th.  The show was downright delightful and would make an excellent holiday outing for families or even as a date night.  Tom and Huck’s antics and Becky Thatcher’s sass had me and Sam in stitches.  And the intense scary scenes had us...

Cincy Shakes Presents: Dracula

October is the only month of the year that I try to be brave and watch scary stuff.  So it makes sense that I went to see Dracula at Cincy Shakes on Friday the 13th. The Cincinnati Shakespeare Company outdid themselves with this phenomenal production.  I was not expecting how dark and gruesome this production...

Cirque du Soleil presents OVO!

I have been to see several Cirque du Soleil shows over the years, and one of my all time favorites is OVO.  The first time we saw OVO was under a big top tent a few years back.  OVO is coming back to Cincinnati in May.  Not under a big top this time, but at...

Broadway in Cincinnati presents: The Illusionists

We went to an “epic” magic show tonight at the Aronoff Center, called The Illusionists.  I use the word epic because I was with two young gents who used that very word.  I cannot remember the last time I heard my boys laugh harder than they did tonight.  Not only were our minds blown by...
