SUMMARY:The Full Monty
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to let it all go! The Dayton Playhouse is proud to present the Tony Award-nominated musical\, The Full Monty \nBased on the cult-classic film\, this heartwarming and hilarious musical follows a group of unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo\, New York. Feeling hopeless and “scrapped\,” the men decide to transform themselves into a striptease act to raise some quick cash—only to discover they have much more to offer than just their clothes. \n“This show is so much more than its famous ending\,” says Tim Rezash\, Director. “It’s a story about friendship\, body image\, and the lengths we go to for the people we love. We can’t wait for Dayton audiences to see the incredible heart—and humor—this cast brings to the stage.” \n🗓️ Performance Dates: \n\nOpening Night: Friday\, May 15 at 8:00 PM\nFridays & Saturdays: 8:00 PM\nSundays: 2:00 PM\nFinal Performance: Sunday\, May 31\n\n📍 Location: The Dayton Playhouse 1301 E. Siebenthaler Ave\, Dayton\, OH 45414 \n🎟️ Tickets: Tickets are $18-20 and can be purchased online or by calling the Box Office at 937-424-8477. Group discounts are available for parties of 8 or more. \nWhen a group of out-of-work steelworkers discover just how much their wives enjoy a Girls’ Night Out\, they come up with a daring plan to make some quick cash. The catch? They’ll have to put it all on the line—literally! A feel-good musical about friendship\, self-acceptance\, and breaking stereotypes\, The Full Monty is the perfect way to end the season with a bang!  This production contains mature themes\, including adult language\, nudity\, and discussion of suicide. Viewer discretion is advised.

When are broken relationships worth mending no matter the cost? And when must they be discarded because the price of truth is too high?

DESCRIPTION:Get ready to let it all go! The Dayton Playhouse is proud to present the Tony Award-nominated musical\, The Full Monty \nBased on the cult-classic film\, this heartwarming and hilarious musical follows a group of unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo\, New York. Feeling hopeless and “scrapped\,” the men decide to transform themselves into a striptease act to raise some quick cash—only to discover they have much more to offer than just their clothes. \n“This show is so much more than its famous ending\,” says Tim Rezash\, Director. “It’s a story about friendship\, body image\, and the lengths we go to for the people we love. We can’t wait for Dayton audiences to see the incredible heart—and humor—this cast brings to the stage.” \n🗓️ Performance Dates: \n\nOpening Night: Friday\, May 15 at 8:00 PM\nFridays & Saturdays: 8:00 PM\nSundays: 2:00 PM\nFinal Performance: Sunday\, May 31\n\n📍 Location: The Dayton Playhouse 1301 E.

The catch? They’ll have to put it all on the line—literally! A feel-good musical about friendship\, self-acceptance\, and breaking stereotypes\, The Full Monty is the perfect way to end the season with a bang!  This production contains mature themes\, including adult language\, nudity\, and discussion of suicide.

SUMMARY:INNOVAtheatre presents Steel Magnolia's
DESCRIPTION:The action is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin\, Louisiana\, where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant\, Annelle (who is not sure whether or not she is still married)\, the outspoken\, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon\, Ouiser\, (“I’m not crazy\, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years”); an eccentric millionaire\, Miss Clairee\, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader\, M’Lynn\, whose daughter\, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town)\, is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions\, the play moves toward tragedy when\, in the second act\, the spunky Shelby (who is a diabetic) risks pregnancy and forfeits her life. The sudden realization of their mortality affects the others\, but also draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play\, and its characters\, the special quality to make them truly touching\, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.

SUMMARY:The Full Monty
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to let it all go! The Dayton Playhouse is proud to present the Tony Award-nominated musical\, The Full Monty \nBased on the cult-classic film\, this heartwarming and hilarious musical follows a group of unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo\, New York. Feeling hopeless and “scrapped\,” the men decide to transform themselves into a striptease act to raise some quick cash—only to discover they have much more to offer than just their clothes. \n“This show is so much more than its famous ending\,” says Tim Rezash\, Director. “It’s a story about friendship\, body image\, and the lengths we go to for the people we love. We can’t wait for Dayton audiences to see the incredible heart—and humor—this cast brings to the stage.” \n🗓️ Performance Dates: \n\nOpening Night: Friday\, May 15 at 8:00 PM\nFridays & Saturdays: 8:00 PM\nSundays: 2:00 PM\nFinal Performance: Sunday\, May 31\n\n📍 Location: The Dayton Playhouse 1301 E.

Group discounts are available for parties of 8 or more. \nWhen a group of out-of-work steelworkers discover just how much their wives enjoy a Girls’ Night Out\, they come up with a daring plan to make some quick cash. The catch? They’ll have to put it all on the line—literally! A feel-good musical about friendship\, self-acceptance\, and breaking stereotypes\, The Full Monty is the perfect way to end the season with a bang!  This production contains mature themes\, including adult language\, nudity\, and discussion of suicide. Viewer discretion is advised.

SUMMARY:INNOVAtheatre presents Steel Magnolia's
DESCRIPTION:The action is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin\, Louisiana\, where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant\, Annelle (who is not sure whether or not she is still married)\, the outspoken\, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon\, Ouiser\, (“I’m not crazy\, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years”); an eccentric millionaire\, Miss Clairee\, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader\, M’Lynn\, whose daughter\, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town)\, is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions\, the play moves toward tragedy when\, in the second act\, the spunky Shelby (who is a diabetic) risks pregnancy and forfeits her life. The sudden realization of their mortality affects the others\, but also draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play\, and its characters\, the special quality to make them truly touching\, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.
