September 4 - 20, 2020

This highly acclaimed, international blockbuster musical weaves the ancient game of chess into a metaphor for romantic rivalries and East-West political intrigue. Music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA, lyrics by Ulvaeus and Tim Rice, and book by Rice, the story involves a politically driven chess tournament between two grandmasters, one American and the other Russian. In danger of becoming pawns in a politically charged competition, their lives are thrown into further confusion by a Hungarian refugee, a remarkable woman who becomes the center of their emotional triangle.Thrilling and timely, Chess includes several international hits, including “One Night in Bangkok” and “I Know Him So Well.”

The sequel to David MacGregor’s

hit play, Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Elusive Ear,

presented at the Toledo Rep in October 2019. It’s the day before Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee and her son, the playboy Prince of Wales, arrives at 221B Baker Street pursued by anarchist assassins. Coincidentally, the greatest chef in the world, Auguste Escoffier, also arrives at 221B, his career about to be shattered by blackmail and scandal. Can Holmes, Watson, and Irene Adler save the life of the heir to the British crown and the reputation of the master chef? And can they unmask the criminal genius behind both of these sinister conspiracies? This action-filled tale of royal debauchery, priceless gems, and gourmet food will provide Dr.Watson with the material for Sherlock Holmes’ most bizarre and tastiest case. Contains adult content.

He’s young, he’s broke, his landlord’s knocking at the door, and he’s just found out his wife is going to have a baby.To make matters even more desperate, Casey is fired from his gig as an Elvis impersonator in a run-down, small-town Florida bar. When the bar owner brings in a B-level drag show to replace his act, Casey finds that he has a whole lot to learn about show business—and himself. Crowd-pleasing and side-splittingly funny, The Legend of Georgia McBride is a gender-bending, feel good tribute to the art of drag.

The Toledo Rep and Actors Collaborative Toledo join together to present their

first ever repertory productions with the staging of Our Town by Thorton Wilder and Middletown by Will Eno. Audiences will have several opportunities to see both performances offered during the run on alternating dates.

In Our Town, we see two young people, George Gibbs and Emily Webb, as their lives entwine and intersect with other denizens of their small town. In Middletown, a friendship between longtime resident, John Dodge, and a new arrival, Mary Swanson, intersects with the inhabitants of Middletown in strange and poignant ways. From the Middletown local library to outer space and points between, or from Rebecca Gibbs window in Grover’s Corners as she marvels at the universe and the mind of God, Our Town/Middletown is a journey to places you won’t forget.

June 4 - 20, 2021

Two brothers set out to write the world’s first musical in this hilarious mash-up of sixteenth-century Shakespeare and twenty-first-century Broadway.

Welcome to the Renaissance and the outrageous, crowd-pleasing musical farce, Something Rotten. Created by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Wayne Kirkpatrick, and successful screenwriters Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Something Rotten is lauded by audience members and critics alike. It received several Best Musical nominations, a Tony and hailed by Time Out NewYork as “the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years”.

Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as “The Bard.” When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.

Denham, Project Supervisor Date: April 12, 2009 Camera Tech: LuAnn Mims, College Archivist Location: Lake Alfred Research Center, Lake Alfred, FL Transcription: Jennifer Bruno, June 20, 2011 Soash: Okay Dr. Attaway, my first question I wanted to ask about your hometown and find out a little bit of background information about where you grew up. So could I ask where you, what you consider your hometown and when your family moved to Haines City? Attaway: Well, let me read you what I have here. I think I’ve already read you this about: graduated from Hapeville in ’47, my father had a 500 acre farm. Okay. In 1947 Georgia schools had only 11 grades so we graduated at age 16. My father sold the 500 acre farm and we moved to Haines City, Florida to buy citrus groves. I didn’t put that in here but the reason this happened my mother went to the University of Georgia and she had a friend at the University of Georgia and they lived in Haines City and they got to be friends and so Dad came down and looked at the oranges and decided to sell, to sell the 500 acre farm in Georgia and come down here and do oranges. Soash: Okay. Attaway: Then I went to Florida Southern and graduated in ’51 with a degree in chemistry, you’ve got that. … Now you want me to go on time-wise? Soash: Where did you get your masters and doctorate degrees and what were those degrees in? Attaway: Okay, I went to the University of Florida in 1951, received a masters degree in organic chemistry in 1953.

Sure, some of the old Southern guys might call you ‘Dear’ or something. I ignored that. I knew people that said, ‘I wouldn’t put up with that.’ To me that had no meaning. What was meaningful was the conversation that you had with them. Again, I had never felt a great deal of inequity. I had to learn in reality. I had to get into Congress and learn the statistics to understand the tremendous inequity that women had in the law. I had never felt it in my home. I certainly was never taught that growing up. I was always taught that I was smart and capable of making my own decisions. That was what my father really insisted on me. So I didn’t feel that greatly. And I didn’t feel it in Congress. Of course, part of it, once you get on Ways and Means, that kind of—no one feels sorry for you and they can’t look down on you too much either.” The Honorable Martha Elizabeth Keys June 14, 2016 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biographies iii Interview 1 Notes 42 Abstract One of the large number of Democratic freshmen elected to the House in 1974 in the wake of the Watergate scandal, Martha Elizabeth Keys quickly stood out among her colleagues when she became only the second woman to serve on the influential Ways and Means Committee.

    Book Club Guide Inlcuding a letter from author Charlie Lovett, a Q&A with Charlie Lovett, suggested questions for discussion, and additional resources for your book club meeting or personal reflection. www.charlielovett.com @CharlieLovett42 @charlielovett.author Dear Readers, One of the things that has given me the most pleasure in the years since The Bookman’s Tale was published has been meeting with book clubs to discuss the novel—whether in person, or by phone or video conference. There is something tremendously satisfying about listening to people discuss your characters as if they are real people because, of course, to me they are real people. Peter and Amanda and Liz are as real to me as many people I have met in the flesh. More real than some! The Bookman’s Tale grew out of some of my own passions—rare books, the English countryside, and William Shakespeare. It’s been wonderful to see how those passions have reverberated with readers. I’ve loved hearing the stories of my readers’ travels in England, their book collections, and their love of Shakespeare. This novel also taught me the joy of writing historical characters—including those smaller actors on the stage of history whose parts are all but forgotten. Yes, I did get to write William Shake- speare as a character (and I could invent his personality because we know nothing about what sort of person he was); but I especially enjoyed writing characters like Robert Green, John War- burton, Humfrey Wanley, and William H. Smith—all real people who are mostly unknown to the modern reader.
