Our vision is to challenge convention through literary originality and eclectic expression while fostering an ever-evolving artistic environment in which people are inspired to learn, think, dream, and feel. To teach others and ourselves how to expand, create, and present art through theatre while reveling not only in the process, but also in the journey.

It casts a net out as wide as possible to see what choices might be interesting for the new season. One of the most integral parts of choosing the season is how a given piece exemplifies one of the pillars of BoHo. These pillars— Truth, Beauty, Freedom, and Love— were implemented from the start of BoHo as a way to maintain the Bohemian ideals while allowing for structure in the selection process.

  • The Christmas Schooner
    THE CHRISTMAS SCHOONER Book by John Reeger. Music and lyrics by Julie Shannon. This critically acclaimed holiday treat tells the true story of a Michigan shipping captain who braves the deadly winter weather to bring Christmas trees to homesick German American families in turn-of-the-century Chicago. His voyages become a yearly tradition despite his wife's misgivings - until a fateful voyage makes her realise the true importance of his mission. With its powerful story and exquisite score, The Christmas Schooner is family entertainment at its best: hearty and wholesome. THE STORY: ACT ONE The stage is bare when the audience enters. Only a large decorated evergreen is visible. As the lights dim, a ship's bell is heard. The lights come up and the entire company talks directly to the audience. We learn that we are going to hear the story of the Stossel family, a German family, now living in America in a little lumber town, Manistique, on the north coast of Lake Michigan. It's also the story of a schooner they called the Molly Doone - and the story of a letter that changed their lives. The scene is then transformed to a bitterly cold Christmas Eve night, 1881. Gustav, the grandfather, enters carrying an armload of wood. He is met by his grandson, Karl, a boy of nine. In another room, Karl's mother, Alma, questions her son to see that he has done all of his assigned chores. Karl talks with his grandfather in German as they both decorate the tree. Alma quickly enters and reminds them that they shouldn't talk in German for they now live in America where everyone speaks English.

Families and kids of all ages will be touched by this heartwarming musical that reveals the real meaning of Christmas. Audiences will be treated to original music and lyrics encompassing popular holiday themes written by Julie Shannon, such as We All Have Songs, When I Look at You and The Blessings of the Branch – “May this branch bring you love. Take it, and pass it on.” “We are thrilled to bring this beloved musical that has been charming audiences for 25 years to central Ohio for the first time this holiday season,” said Joe Bishara, CATCO associate producing director and co-director of The Christmas Schooner, with Kirsten Upchurch, CATCO’s production stage manager. Bishara also performs the role of Peter Stossel, the father of the Stossel family, and captain of a Great Lakes schooner, which makes a dangerous journey across Lake Michigan to make a special holiday delivery. The Christmas Schooner, book by John Reeger, has been a holiday favorite in Chicago for many years. It was first produced at Northwestern University in 1993 and subsequently at Bailiwick Repertory Theatre, where it was a holiday staple for several seasons, as well as Mercury Theatre Chicago.
