Queen City Flash's first production, THE COMPLETE TOM, is a new, expanded look at Mark Twain's writings on Tom Sawyer, pulling together alternate sources and combining them with his classic novels. THE COMPLETE TOM is a four play cycle and will be presented throughout the 2014-2015 season at various locations.

For three months, QCF worked with 13 mothers in Price Hill to build community through theatre. When given time to focus on yourself and your neighbors,  what can you discover? Mothers crafted a personal narrative and shared it in a performance for the Price Hill community on June 1, 2017.  

Providing transportation, breakfast, lunch, and daycare, moms met once a week for three hours in what could be called Summer Theatre Camp meets Support Group, merging personal sharing with improvisation, monologue writing, and scene work led by a group of local artists.

A dance journey of wealth, poverty, and Over-the-Rhine

Through technology and careful listening, PONES, Inc. interviewed a range of people in our hometown, recording as many interviews as possible and creating a devised dance piece with a documentary video component. The piece began at Washington Park and was site-specific and promenade in nature, stopping off in various indoor and outdoor spaces to view the documentary video created with the different voices and faces of poverty and homelessness in Cincinnati.
