Cincinnati Music Theatre presents the regional premiere
of this NEW Broadway musical.

A heartwarming fantasy set in the American South, Big Fish centers on the charismatic Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman whose impossible stories of his epic adventures thrill everyone around him but frustrate his son Will, who is about to have a child of his own.
As Edward’s life end approaches, Will embarks on his own journey to find out who his father really is, revealing the man behind the myth, separating the truth from the tall tales. Overflowing with heart and humor, Big Fish is an extraordinary new Broadway musical that reminds us why we love going to the theater – for an experience that’s richer, funnier, and BIGGER than life itself.

Tickets are on sale NOW.

If you are not familiar with BIG FISH, visit our home page.
Listen to a moment of the AMAZING overture, and you will fall in love with this production, guaranteed!

BILLY ELLIOT THE MUSICAL

NOVEMBER 4-12, 2016, Aronoff Center, Jarson-Kaplan Theatre

SKIP FENKER, Director

An inspiring celebration of one boy’s journey who hangs up his boxing gloves for ballet shoes.

Ten Tony Awards including Best Musical… this is Billy Elliot The Musical, the spectacular show with the heart, humor and passion to be named Time Magazine’s “Best Musical of the Decade!”

Featuring a score by music legend Elton John, Billy Elliot is an astonishing theatrical experience that will stay with you forever.

Set in a northern English mining town, against the background of the 1984 miners’ strike, Billy Elliot is the inspirational story of a young boy’s struggle against the odds to make his dream come true.

Follow Billy’s journey as he stumbles out of the boxing ring and into a ballet class where he discovers a passion for dance that inspires his family and community and changes his life forever.


DISNEY’S THE LITTLE MERMAID

MAY 12-20, 2017, Aronoff Center, Jarson-Kaplan Theatre

LIZANNE INGRAM, Director

In a magical kingdom beneath the sea, the young mermaid Ariel longs to leave her ocean home for the world above.

Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages.

With music by eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater, and a compelling book by Doug Wright, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl,” and “Part of Your World.”

Ariel, King Triton’s youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above and bargains with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs.

But the bargain is not what it seems and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull, and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.
