Broadway in Cincinnati season



The Fifth Third Bank Broadway in Cincinnati lineup, with one title to be named:

Oct. 21-Nov. 2 - Urinetown, born at the New York International Fringe Festival, moved into the mainstream to win Tony Awards for best direction, book, music and lyrics. It's a gleeful spoof of corporate greed and political corruption in a town with a desperate water shortage where pay potties cost big bucks. (One song laments "It's a Privilege to Pee.") The New York Times called it "simply the most galvanizing theater experience in town."

Nov. 18-30 - Thoroughly Modern Millie won six 2002 Tonys, including best musical. It's based on the 1967 movie about a Jazz Age heroine who finds love and adventure in the big city.

Dec. 16-28 - The Graduate is the nonmusical series entry. It was soundly trashed by New York critics. Adapted from the film classic starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft, it's a love triangle between naÔve Benjamin Braddock, seductive and manipulative older woman Mrs. Robinson and her innocent daughter Elaine. It was a hot ticket in New York in part because it featured the disrobing of Kathleen Turner as Mrs. R. Stars to be announced.

Jan. 20-Feb. 1 - The Full Monty is another screen-to-stage transfer, the jolly telling of six working-class lugs from Buffalo who decide that taking it all off is the best solution when a guy is laid off.

March 2-14 - A Night with Dame Edna, a k a Barry Humphreys, Australia's most effervescent female impersonator, makes her/his Cincinnati debut. The housewife, talk-show host, adviser to British royalty, investigative journalist and so much more, will riff on whatever topics she feels inclined.

March 30-April 11 - Movin' Out sets the music of five-time Grammy winner Billy Joel to movement by modern dance legend Twyla Tharp to tell the story of five lifelong friends over two decades.

Season tickets ($99 to $505) are on sale at (800) 294-1816.
