Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.

CCM is an accredited institution of the National Association of Schools of Music and the National Association of Schools of Theatre and a member of the University/Resident Theatre Association.

The videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited. Director’s Note _rimes of the Heart was the first production I directed in Cincinnati. The year was 1985, the venue was the Showboat Majestic, and my casting pool consisted, primarily, of students Cat CCM. In the intervening years, some of those cast members have become Tony Award-winning artists (which I attribute directly to their experiences with me on the venerable Showboat Majestic!), while I have continued to teach, direct and enjoy the rich artistic possibilities present here at CCM.

Preparing this production has, of course, caused me to think about my earlier effort, and I must offer some apologies to those long-ago cast members, for I fear we merely scratched the surface of Beth Henley’s wonderful play. While we captured, I think, the quirky eccentricities of the Magrath sisters, in retrospect, and especially in light of the superb work done by the current company, I believe the play lives at a much deeper, richer emotional level and has a more complicated and compelling story to tell than I first imagined. It is a work filled with humor, yes, but also with sadness and hope, and it has been a joy to revisit it with these talented student and faculty artists.

In August 1969, Hurricane Camille devastated lives and land along the Gulf Coast. Five years later, the Magrath family is still feeling its effects…
