Our Country's Good At NKU
A production of Northern Kentucky University Dept of Theatre and Dance. Australia is the perfect dumping ground for the worst British convicts in the 1780s, but with only a few guards to keep the unruly inmates in line, the Governor suggests a simple but bizarre solution to create order -- have the inmates put on a play. Much to the dismay of both the prison workers and the prisoners themselves, the play takes to the stage. Multiple agendas, clashing opinions, violent outbursts and mental illness all challenge the success of the play. Nominated for six Tony Awards.

My Favorite Year @ NKU
A production of Northern Kentucky University (NKU) dept of theatre and dance. In this crazy musical comedy, Alan Swann, a washed up ex-movie idol, is finally getting his chance for a comeback!

Unfortunately, his pensions for past bad habits of drinking and wooing women remain and comedy sketch writer Benjy Stone has been put to the task of keeping Swann out of trouble. Poor Benjy has no idea that this task will put him into the craziest of situations that could cost both of them their careers. Two time Tony Award winning musical.
