EVERY CHRISTMAS Opens Next Week at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company

Cincinnati Shakespeare Company is pleased to announce more details on the 13th Annual production of the beloved holiday classic "Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and Then Some!)" December 14- 30, 2018 directed again by Jeremy Dubin. "Every Christmas Story Ever Told" is sponsored by Messer, Raymond James, and Thompson Hine.

For the 13th straight year, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company is thrilled to offer a full season of holiday cheer in just a little more than 90 minutes with Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!) by Michael Carleton, James FitzGerald, and John K. Alvarez. This hilarious production is a non-stop holiday romp through everyone's favorite Christmas stories performed by just four actors. Justin McCombs and Billy Chace, who are respectively 13th year and 12th year company members, return to poke fun at the holiday season, with returning special guest Miranda McGee, 9th year company member. CSC welcomes back for the 2nd season in this production, Resident Company Member Maggie Lou Rader!

CSC Director of Creative Education, Jeremy Dubin, returns to the director's chair. This production is one of the most popular events in Cincinnati Shakespeare Company history breaking attendance and sales records every year. Director Jeremy Dubin remarks, "This cast has so much fun together that the show has become a very personal holiday tradition for all of us. It's occasionally a little irreverent but always warm-spirited, and it's the perfect panacea to all your winter woes."

Please note that "Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and Then Some!)" is most appreciated by adults and older teens, and is not recommended for any theatergoers still young enough to believe in Santa.

All performances of "Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and Then Some!)" are held at The Otto M. Budig Theater on 1195 Elm St in OTR, adjacent to Washington Park. Tickets start at $40. To purchase tickets or for more information, call the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company Box Office at 513.381.BARD (2273), or visit us online at www.cincyshakes.com.
