Tennessee Williams has a knack for making me want to quote lines from his shows. These are the kinds of plays I can't wait to talk about for days after, and the current Denver Center Theatre Company's first-ever production of The Glass Menagerie exceeded each one of my expectations.

The Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) has announced the full casting and artistic teams for their fall Theater Company productions of The Glass Menagerie and Frankenstein. The lineup includes returning artists from past seasons, new collaborators, and familiar faces from the Colorado theatre community.

The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park will continue its Thompson Shelterhouse season with Julia Cho's THE PIANO TEACHER. This unique and powerful play begins public previews on February 12 and continues through March 13.

First things first; there is no hot air ballooning in Mark Brown's stage adaptation of Jules Verne's Around The World In 80 Days, just in case your only familiarity with the plot comes from Michael Todd's not exactly faithful 1956 movie version. (For that matter, there aren't any martial arts fight scenes either, in case you only saw the Jackie Chan remake.) But if Verne's hero did dabble in a bit of ballooning, I'm sure Brown and director Michael Evan Haney would have found some clever way to depict it in this lively and entertaining little production that's landed at the Irish Repertory Theatre in association with Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park.

The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park will open its Thompson Shelterhouse 50th Anniversary Season with the world premiere of VICTORIA MUSICA by Michele Lowe. This fast-moving story that journeys into the heart of an artist and the nature of fame begins public previews on September 26 and continues through October 25.
