Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati presents Steven Strafford's "The Match Game"

Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati (ETC), the region's leading destination for bold contemporary theatre and award-winning education and community programs, presents playwright Steven Strafford’s “The Match Game” as part of the 2022 ETC Studio Series.

Steph has cancer, but that’s the least of her problems. Her estranged father, who may or may not have dementia, has come to live with her. Her suspicious mom, her gay brother and his sweet, young, and somewhat dim-witted boyfriend, her absent father, and her precocious daughter will all be in attendance at an ad hoc birthday party, complete with the set of a regional production of a Broadway musical. Can Steph navigate her family to get what she wants—or maybe more importantly—what she needs?

“The Match Game” features a cast of Cincinnati’s finest talent, including:

STEPH: Jennifer Joplin

BRIAN: Jared Joplin

JOHNNY: Bruce Cromer

DEB: Deb Girdler

ALAN: Allen R. Middleton

NORA: Teagan Farmer.

“The Match Game” will be presented on July 31, 2022. Information and tickets can be found at https://ensemblecincinnati.org/calendar/match-game/.
