This Off-Broadway hit comedy is a one-man fusion of theatre and stand-up based on The New York Times #1 best-selling book of the last decade by John Gray. Moving swiftly through a series of vignettes, the show covers everything from dating and marriage to the bedroom. The hysterical Mars-Venus will have couples elbowing each other all evening as they see themselves on stage.

Brain Candy Live!

Aronoff Center - Procter & Gamble Hall

Adam Savage (MythBusters), one of television's most loved personalities, has joined forces with Michael Stevens (Vsauce), one of YouTube's biggest stars. They're bringing their crazy toys, incredible tools, and mind-blowing demonstrations for a celebration of curiosity that's an interactive, hands-on, minds-on theatrical experience like no other. Adam and Michael's Brain Candy Live! experience is like a two-hour play date with Walt Disney, Willy Wonka, and Albert Einstein.


RAIN: A Tribute to The Beatles

Tuesday, February 27, 2018 - 7:30 PM

Music Hall - Springer Auditorium

RAIN: A Tribute to The Beatles returns for a record-breaking eighth CAA Presents engagement, and its first time at the newly-renovated Cincinnati Music Hall! As "the next best thing to seeing The Beatles!" (Associated Press), RAIN performs the full range of The Beatles' discography live onstage, including the most complex and challenging songs that The Beatles themselves recorded in the studio but never performed for an audience. Together longer than The Beatles, RAIN has mastered every song, gesture and nuance of the legendary foursome, delivering a totally live, note-for-note performance that's as infectious as it is transporting.


Golden Dragon Acrobats

Tuesday, March 6, 2018 - 7:30 PM

Aronoff Center - Procter & Gamble Hall

The Golden Dragon Acrobats represent the best of a time-honored tradition that began more than twenty-five centuries ago. The awe-inspiring performance combines award-winning acrobatics, traditional dance, spectacular costumes, ancient and contemporary music, and theatrical techniques (including feats on chairs stacked ten-stories high) to present a show of breathtaking skill and beauty. The Golden Dragon Acrobats are recognized throughout the United States and abroad as the premiere Chinese acrobatic touring company of today.

COME JOIN OUR SISTERHOOD! Four women at a lingerie sale have nothing in common but a black lace bra AND memory loss, hot flashes, night sweats, not enough sex, too much sex, and more. This hilarious musical parody set to classic tunes from the '60s, '70s and '80s will have you cheering and dancing in the aisles. See what millions of women worldwide have been laughing about for sixteen years. It's the Hilarious Celebration of Women and The Change! (And men love it, too.)
