Leading Ladies
Get up close with the cast of Mythic, the new pop-rock musical comedy with Broadway ambitions! After winning over critics in London and selling out in Montreal, Mythic makes its highly anticipated U.S. premiere right here in Cincinnati. Join the stars for a lively conversation about bringing this modern spin on ancient mythology to the stage – complete with music, mischief, and a whole lot of heart.
Join us for an intimate and heartfelt exploration of gratitude in its many forms in a conversation with the cast of The Heart Sellers — a poignant and funny new comedy set on Thanksgiving Day, 1973. Centered on two immigrant women forging an unexpected bond in a new land, this touching story is a celebration of friendship, self-discovery, and what it means to find your place in the “land of opportunity.”
This is the event you can share with your girlfriends! Enjoy a fun-filled reception before the final dress rehearsal of Mrs. Christie, a mystery about the curious, real-life disappearance of Agatha Christie – sponsored by the Leading Ladies! Starlets may bring one guest, Divas may bring two and Grande Dames may bring three for a great girls’ night out and an exclusive sneak peek at the theatre-making process.
Go beyond the curtain and explore where the magic begins! Tour our scene shop, paint shop, props, and costume storage — and see how the world on stage comes to life. You might even pick up a paintbrush and join in on a hands-on activity. It’s a fun, creative evening filled with backstage secrets and a little theatrical flair!
