DEAR FRIENDS Welcome

Thank you for choosing to see a performance at Playhouse Square. We encourage you take in the historic beauty of our theaters and the bright lights of Euclid Avenue while you’re here. Our staff and RedCoat volunteers are ready to make your visit as memorable and enjoyable as possible.

Playhouse Square was saved by the community for the community, and we are proud to be the stewards of the legacy left to us by previous generations — now one of Cleveland’s brightest cultural gems. Our not-for-profit mission charges us to go beyond simply maintaining these incredible venues.

Every day we work to present a diverse offering of quality performances — Broadway, concerts, comedy, dance, film, family shows and more. We support arts education through a variety of programs that take place in the classroom, online and here at Playhouse Square. We lead a vibrant downtown destination that generates an annual economic impact exceeding $359 million for the region. Equally important are your experience and the memories you take with you.

This season, we are proud to open three national Broadway tours, made possible by Ohio’s theater tax credit, the talented crew and staff here at Playhouse Square, and you, our enthusiastic audiences.

Now, settle into your seat, leave the world outside for a little while and let yourself become absorbed in the magic of the story on stage before you.

With best wishes,

INVEST

Make bold, smart investments to help stabilize Ohio arts and culture.

ENGAGE

Spark authentic dialogue about the unique strength and value of the arts.

INNOVATE LEAD

Drive Ohio’s arts community toward forward-looking and adaptable creative evolution.

SPOTLIGHT ON News

JUST ANNOUNCED!

Several familiar book and movie titles are eyeing a spot on the stage, either as a new work or a revival. Here are just a few of the upcoming titles to watch for.

Dreamgirls Revival

Tony-nominated choreographer Camille A. Brown is set to make history as the director and choreographer of the upcoming 2026 Broadway revival of Dreamgirls. Known for her dynamic work on Hell’s Kitchen, Choir Boy, and for colored girls..., Brown will be the first Black woman to direct and choreograph a major Broadway musical in over four decades. The beloved musical originally premiered in 1981, and a film adaptation starring Jennifer Hudson, Beyoncé, Eddie Murphy and Jamie Foxx was released in 2006. Performances are slated to begin in Fall 2026.

The Baby-sitters Club The Musical

It’s been almost four decades since the first book in Ann M. Martin’s iconic The Baby-Sitters Club series was published, and now Claudia, Stacey, Mary Anne and Kristy are about to take on a new adventure: Broadway! A brand-new musical adaptation, with book by Kate Wetherhead (The Devil Wears Prada, Ever After) and music and lyrics by Mark Sonnenblick (Kpop Demon Hunters), will have industry readings in NYC this fall. The musical is set 12 years after the end of the series, as the original group returns to Stoneybrook, CT, to honor their teenage pact to reunite. The Baby-sitters Club is one of the best selling children’s book series of all time with nearly 200 million books in print to date and translations in 23 languages.

A Beautiful Mind

A musical adaptation of the Oscar-winning film A Beautiful Mind is officially in development for the stage, promising a powerful new take on the story of mathematician John Forbes Nash Jr. Drama Desk Award nominee Zoe Sarnak will compose the score, while Emmy Award nominee Sarah Treem will pen the book. Inspired by Sylvia Nasar’s acclaimed biography, the production is being developed in partnership with Universal Theatrical Group and McCarter Theatre Center. A production timeline has not yet been announced.

LONG TIME CAST MEMBER DEPARTS THE LION KING

After an extraordinary run of over 9,000 performances, Tshidi Manye took her final bow as Rafiki in The Lion King on August 31, marking the end of a historic chapter in Broadway history. Manye, who joined the production in 2000 and became the longest-running Rafiki across all Disney’s The Lion King companies, has captivated audiences with her powerful voice and presence — especially in her iconic renditions of “Circle of Life.” Manye also joined the tour company of The Lion King for a limited run in 2013, which included a stop here at Playhouse Square.

A SWEET NEW SHOP IN THE PLAYHOUSE SQUARE DISTRICT

SPOTLIGHT ON The District

Guests to the Playhouse Square District can enjoy a sweet treat before or after seeing a performance as Ben & Jerry’s has opened its scoop shop in the Hanna Building (1422 Euclid Ave.). The venue is open daily, and its menu features a range of their well-known ice cream flavors that can be served in a waffle cone, milkshake, sundae or a classic cup. Visitors can also enjoy flavors that are “exclusive” to the Playhouse Square District. The addition of Ben & Jerry’s is a part of Playhouse Square’s “Beyond the Stage” initiative, which is designed to enhance the experience of theatergoers and provide a welcoming environment for downtown workers, residents and visitors.

SHARE YOUR LOVE FOR PLAYHOUSE SQUARE

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!

From filming at Playhouse Square to a record-breaking Midwest premiere at the Cleveland International Film Festival and now a theatrical release, Lost & Found in Cleveland is a must-see for audiences this holiday season. The film takes a look at the American Dream set in “the best location in the nation,” Cleveland. Set in a 24-hour period, the movie follows the personal odysseys of five very different people, whose lives intertwine when America’s favorite televised antiques appraisal show comes to Cleveland. Lost & Found in Cleveland features star-studded cast including Martin Sheen, Jon Lovitz. June Squibb, Dennis Haysbert, Liza Weil, Dot-Marie Jones and Rory O’Malley. Audiences can see the film in theaters on November 7.

Ohio residents can show their passion for Playhouse Square as they hit the road with the new Playhouse Square organizational license plate. All Ohio motorists are eligible to purchase the specialty license plate which features the Playhouse Square burgundy logo. For more information and pricing, please visit bmv.ohio.gov or your local BMV Deputy Registrar License Agency. A portion of the proceeds from these license plates go back to Playhouse Square.

SPOTLIGHT ON Partners

Partners, the official young professionals group at Playhouse Square, launched their season with a vibrant kickoff event on Monday, September 29. Attendees gathered on Dix & Eaton’s rooftop terrace located on the top floor of the Bulkley Building to enjoy delicious food, refreshing drinks and lively networking in a stunning setting.

And get ready to unlock the magic of the secret garden on Saturday, February 28, at Jump Back Ball 2026: BLOOM, chaired by Partners Board Members Kristen Swinton & Alicia Trumbull. Partners hosts this annual fundraiser to support Playhouse Square’s education initiatives, including sensory-friendly programming, Disney Musicals in Schools, The Dazzle Awards and Classroom Connections Workshops.

QUEENSPIRATION

Religion, sewing, dancing, a bit more religion.

Probably a type of cancer.

Her refusal to accept that her marriage was invalid; her faith; her dramatic speech to Henry when he had her brought to court to seek the annulment of their marriage.

Headlessness; bringing about England’s break with the Pope; having a sixth fingernail.

Being the “only one he truly loved”; having two troublesome brothers who fought over the regency of the young Prince Edward after King Henry’s death.

Adele and Sia.

Being chosen from her portrait and then rejected when Henry met her.

When Henry first met Anna of Cleves, he disguised himself, possibly imagining some sort of a romantic reaction. According to a witness, when Henry kissed Anna, she turned away coldly from the hideous stranger molesting her. The witness, Lord Russell, observed that he “never saw His Highness so marvelously astonished.”

From her arrest on November 8, 1541 until her execution three months later, Katherine stayed under house arrest at Syon House; in late January of 1542, an act was passed in Parliament that rendered it treason for a woman to become the king’s wife without “plain declaration before of her unchaste life,” meaning Henry could have her killed.

PLAYHOUSE SQUARE History

Playhouse Square Education Department

Since its inception in 1998, the Playhouse Square Education Department has remained committed to including the widest possible audience through streaming initiatives, sensory-friendly performances and its social justice series. The department is unique in the performing arts industry for the variety of programs it offers, the partnerships it initiates and the access it provides students, educators and aspiring artists to performing arts professionals. The Education Department oversees The Dazzle Awards presented by Pat and John Chapman, Disney Musicals in Schools presented by Dee and Jimmy Haslam, as well as school matinee performances, Children’s Theater Series and Family Theater Day. The department also manages the free Broadway Buzz pre-show talks that are held before most KeyBank Broadway Series performances. For more than 25 years, the Education Department has offered thousands of events, workshops and classes — most with minimal or no fees thanks to the generosity of our donors — and its nationally recognized performances and arts education programming have impacted hundreds of thousands of people in Cleveland and around the world, as they have enriched individuals of all backgrounds, abilities and means.

The Playhouse Square Chandelier

The Playhouse Square Chandelier at the intersection of E. 14th and Euclid Ave. is the largest outdoor chandelier in North America with 4200 crystals. The Chandelier is generously presented by GE Lighting, a Savant company.

A Change in History?

One of many fascinating items to be found in the book Playhouse Square: An Entertaining History deals with the infamous John Wilkes Booth. Booth performed locally at the old Academy of Music, which was one of the first drama schools in the country and was located at 1371 W. 6th Street. It was at that Cleveland Academy where he would play his last role prior to performing at Washington D.C.’s Ford Theatre where he would assassinate President Lincoln. (Might history have been changed if the Academy had held over Booth’s play for an extended run?)

There Goes the Neighborhood!

The 1870s ushered in the golden age for Euclid Avenue — known as Millionaire’s Row — as the street became a stretch of grand mansions, with grounds often extending as far as Lake Erie, and stately elm trees arching over the avenue.

But by Cleveland’s Centennial in 1896, Euclid Avenue residents were likely muttering, Well, there goes the neighborhood! as the dirt street was paved with sandstone, and businessmen began to buy up and tear down the mansions and towering elms to make way for commercial ventures.

Streetcar lines on the once totally residential stretch hastened the creation of a commercial district, forcing wealthy families to move even farther east on Euclid Avenue. In another 30 years, the district would see the birth of the five main theaters that would eventually become Playhouse Square.

Basketball on the KeyBank State stage?

The stage of the KeyBank State Theatre is so large that a typical high school gymnasium (complete with basketball court and bleachers) could easily fit on stage. As another point of comparison, three of the Mimi Ohio Theatre stages could fit onto the State’s stage.

The Mural Above the Fireplace

Above the fireplace at the rear of the KeyBank State Theatre auditorium, an original mural hangs despite its near-tragic loss. Removed from the wall in the early 1970s prior to the scheduled demolition of the venue, the mural eventually turned up in the basement of a piano store and was repurchased by Playhouse Square for $200.

The recovered mural was badly torn, having originally been painted on burlap then glued to the wall. The challenge of restoring the artwork fell to the Theater District’s Bonfoey Company. Artisans sanded the glue from the burlap and attached the cleaned mural to canvas via beeswax.

The next step was to clean and restore the work where needed. A stretcher for the canvas had to be custom-made. To eliminate tears and wrinkles, the stretcher was designed to expand and contract with the theater’s climactic changes and held together with springs (no nails or screws). It took Bonfoey employees 18 months to restore the painting at a cost of $8,500.

Although the creator of this mural is unknown, it is suspected to be Italian artist Sampitrotti, who had painted three murals for the original Mimi Ohio Theatre lobby. (Those murals were later destroyed in the Ohio’s 1964 lobby fire.)

World’s Longest Lobby Explained

In 1920 as the Loew’s chain anticipated building in the area that would come to be known as Playhouse Square, it was discovered there wasn’t sufficient room to build two theaters side by side in the available space.

Since it was important that the proposed theater marquees be located on Euclid Avenue, an architectural plan was devised. Even though the KeyBank State Theatre would be completed and open 21 months before the Connor Palace, it was decided to build the KeyBank State behind the Connor Palace. This led to the construction of the KeyBank State’s 320-foot-long lobby, reported to be the longest theater lobby in the world. The Mimi Ohio Theatre would then be built on the other side of the KeyBank State, giving all three theaters the desired Euclid Avenue marquee frontage.

What Would It Cost to Build Them Today?

Even though the Connor Palace is not the largest of the Playhouse Square venues, it was the most costly to build ($3.5 million) by the time it premiered on Nov. 6, 1922. The largest theater, the KeyBank State, (opened Feb. 5, 1921) was built at a cost of $2 million; the Mimi Ohio (Feb. 14, 1921) also cost $2 million, and the Allen’s costs totaled $1.9 million when it opened April 1, 1921. (Exact building costs for the Hanna Theatre — which opened March 28, 1921 — have yet to be uncovered.) In 1977, it was estimated that it would cost $75 million to recreate the Connor Palace.

A Phoenix from the Ashes

In 1964, the Mimi Ohio Theatre lobby and auditorium were destroyed by fire. When the fledgling Playhouse Square organization restored the spaces in 1982, funding and time constraints made it possible only for the auditorium to be fully restored. Thanks to a gift from the George Gund Foundation, the lobby was re-created in its original splendor in 2016. You can watch a documentary about the project, “Restoring the Legacy,” on Playhouse Square’s YouTube channel.

Re-Creating History

We call the completed Mimi Ohio Theatre George Gund Foundation Lobby project a “re-creation” rather than a restoration. Why? There was nothing left to restore after a 1964 fire destroyed the space. To reproduce the lobby’s original 1921

splendor, architects, restoration specialists and Playhouse Square staff conducted exhaustive research of the original drawings by architect Thomas Lamb, photo archives and a few remaining bits of ornamental plaster detail to gain a thorough understanding of the space and inform the plans for re-creating the lobby.

Broadway to Buildings

Where do the arts and real estate go hand-in-hand?

At Playhouse Square, of course! As the theaters began to be restored in the early 1980s, it was thought that developers would step in to build and open businesses around them. When that didn’t happen, Playhouse Square began to steward development of the surrounding neighborhood. In 1999, Playhouse Square became the first performing arts center with a real estate services division, which manages the more than 1.7 million square feet of property owned by the organization and another 1.5 million square feet outside the theater district. Other performing arts centers have since looked to our expertise as a model.

YPs Take the Lead

Best known as the masterminds behind the annual Jump Back Ball benefit, Playhouse Square’s young professionals group – Partners – was formed in 1991. Since then, hundreds of young professionals engage with Playhouse Square each year to build leadership skills, raise funds and volunteer in support of our not-for-profit mission, enjoy shows together, network and have fun!

Keeping Up the KeyBank State Theatre

First restored more than 30 years ago, the KeyBank State Theatre was repainted from the street to the proscenium in 2015. The new, cohesive color palette showcases the beauty and craftsmanship of the nearly 100-year-old theater. It took 25 painters 12,500 hours and 595 gallons of paint in 15 different colors to complete the project, which also included 6000 sheets of new metal leafing in the auditorium dome and the application of a historically accurate wall-covering design. While the theater was dark, its lighting fixtures and restrooms received major upgrades.

What’s in a Logo?

The Playhouse Square logo we use today – a tilted burgundy square with a capital P in its center –

was introduced in 2008 to capture the enduring spirit of entertainment and excitement. Each of the logo’s graphic elements has meaning: the exclamation point with a star in the “P” symbolizes excitement and innovation; the swirl in the “P” represents creativity and forward motion; the tilted square symbolizes Playhouse Square as a destination; and the burgundy color gives nod to the color scheme of our historic theaters.

Going Green

While red is the color most often associated with theaters, Playhouse Square is making efforts to go “green.” You will find receptacles for recycling paper, plastic and cans throughout the complex. Lighting fixtures are being switched to LED for increased energy efficiency. And the Playhouse Square administrative office is making strides towards going paperless.

Patterns in Plaster

As you walk through the theaters, you may notice various patterns within the plaster decoration. Common are dentil, lamb tongue, rope and rosettes. Other patterns you may see have been associated with certain meanings since they were first used hundreds or even thousands of years ago,

such as the acanthus leaf (immortality), egg and dart (life and death), and the palm leaf, first used in ancient Egypt as a reference to the Nile River. In the KeyBank State Theatre, if you look closely and carefully, you can find ox skulls, which were believed to offer protection from natural elements. And throughout the theaters, you will find griffins, mythical creatures thought of as guardians.

The ”Blue Urn”

On the mezzanine level of the Connor Palace lobby, you’ll find a cobalt blue urn sitting on a marble base. The urn, weighing 325 pounds, was made in Sevres, France before WWI. It is said that its twin resides in the Louvre Museum.

The Show That Saved Playhouse Square

After seeing a performance of Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living in Paris at Cleveland State University, Ray Shepardson — the man who was the driving force behind the saving of Playhouse Square’s theaters — decided to stage the show in the KeyBank State Theatre lobby for three weeks. Clevelanders flocked to the performances and the show’s run extended to more than two years, proving that audiences would return to Playhouse Square and to downtown.

In Residence

Playhouse Square is proud to be the home of eight resident companies: The City Club of Cleveland, Cleveland Ballet, Cleveland International Film Festival, Cleveland Play House, Cleveland State University Department of Theatre and Dance, DANCECleveland, Great Lakes Theater and Tri-C JazzFest.

A League of Our Own

Playhouse Square is a member of The Broadway League, the national trade association for the Broadway industry. Formed in 1930, members include theater owners and operators, producers,

presenters, general managers and suppliers throughout North America.

Marquees on Display

The Playhouse Square District is shining brighter than ever before with our magnificent marquees and outdoor digital signage. The marquees’ designs were inspired by each historic theater with the ceiling of each marquee capturing elements from the grand ceiling of its respective theater. The marquees are equipped with localized sound to welcome audiences with thematic soundtracks, as well as sustainable, energy-efficient LED lighting that can complement shows, holidays and other themes. Guests can catch the Marquee Moment presented by GE Lighting, a Savant company, every night before entering and leaving their performances at the theaters.

Officially Historic

In 1978, Playhouse Square was added to the National Register of Historic Places, the official list of U.S. historic sites worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service’s National Register of Historic Places is part of a program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate and protect America’s historic and archeological resources.

Seating Styles to Suit

The Hanna Theatre features seven different styles of seating, though none is ever more than 13 rows from the action. You can choose from traditional theater seating in the orchestra or balcony, club chairs, banquettes, bar stools, lounge seating and historic or balcony boxes.

A Curtain with History

It is has long been common practice for touring shows and performers to leave their mark backstage: some sign walls, some sign posters to be hung by theater staff and crew, and some attach t-shirts or posters, create drawings or sign onto the theater curtain itself. From its opening in 1921 through the 1980s, hundreds of such t-shirts, drawings and signatures accumulated on the Hanna Theatre curtain, now housed in the Special Collections Department of the Cleveland State University library.

The Power of Three

The Power of Three: The Allen Theatre Project brought Cleveland Play House, Cleveland State University and Playhouse Square together as partners to reconfigure the Allen Theatre, build the Outcalt Theatre and The Helen, and create a new pedestrian walkway from the Playhouse Square parking garage to the theaters. This partnership would bring Cleveland Play House and Cleveland State University’s Department of Theatre and Dance to Playhouse Square as resident companies.

Building Cleveland

The original builder of the Allen and Hanna Theatres — John Gill & Sons Co. — also built Judson Manor (known then as Wade Park Manor), the Federal Reserve Bank and the Terminal Tower.

Young STARS Shine At Playhouse Square

You might see volunteer RedCoats from time to time who look like they’re not old enough to vote — and they aren’t. These youths are part of the successful STARS (Students Take A Role at the Square) program, where older students volunteer to usher at Broadway Series shows, concerts and other special events at the theaters. While the STARS program can be interesting and fun for all students, it becomes a particularly invaluable

opportunity to gain experience and behind-thescenes knowledge for those students who are planning future careers in the performing arts.

The KeyBank State Theatre Murals

The four murals on the walls of the KeyBank State Theatre lobby were painted by American Modernist James Daugherty (1890-1974), whose work hangs in the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum and the Smithsonian. One of the murals, The Spirit of Cinema, was featured on the cover of Life magazine on February 20, 1970. It was that national attention that became the convincing argument to save the venue from the wrecking ball. Destruction of the State would also have meant the loss of the original historic Daugherty murals, since they are painted directly on the walls. Today they are the only Daugherty works which remain at the original site where they were painted.

Roman Rotunda

The design for the Allen Theatre’s rotunda was inspired by the Villa Madama near Rome. Commissioned by Cardinal de’ Medici, the Villa was created by Raphael and Giovanni da Udine. The direct influence of the Villa Madama can be found in the rotunda’s paintings and color palette, as well as the original floor plan for the theater and lobby.
