A Playhouse season offers something for everyone, from contemporary theatre and Broadway hits to musicals, classics and world premieres. The 55th season includes:

· An exciting, suspenseful world premiere, SAFE HOUSE, inspired by the ancestors of Cincinnati native playwright Keith Josef Adkins, who were free people of color in antebellum Kentucky.

· Recent Broadway smash hit VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE by Christopher Durang, the "deliriously funny" winner of the 2013 Tony Award for best play.

· PETER AND THE STARCATCHER, the magical, family-friendly Peter Pan prequel that hooked five Tony Awards.

· Inspiring tributes to two musical legends - TENDERLY: THE ROSEMARY CLOONEY MUSICAL, chronicling America's favorite girl singer from her Cincinnati childhood and Hollywood stardom to triumphant comeback; and RING OF FIRE: THE MUSIC OF JOHNNY CASH, directed by and featuring Jason Edwards, who starred in the show on Broadway.

· Four exciting contemporary plays in the Thompson Shelterhouse.
