TheatreLab’s SMASH HIT ‘Lizzie’ is no AX-ident!!

October 27, 2024 By Joshua Stucky

Hurried…anxiety driven…and commanding, ‘Lizzie’ now playing at Mudlick Tavern’s Second Floor, has thrust TheatreLab back in the spotlight! DDN’s Russell Florence put it best…‘a wonderfully raw, vocally-impressive spooky season production…’ The show is directed by Mackensie King, and I had the pleasure of interviewing her about the show’s high praise!!

D9: Mackensie…you have a hit on your hands!! Why did you choose ‘Lizzie‘ in the first place??

MK: I have always loved horror and all things spooky. What drew me to this version of her story is how grounded and real it feels. The question I asked myself at the end of listening to it the first time was: is she GUILTY? Not did she do it, but are the things this woman went through about to justify what she did to escape them. Plus, the music for this show is unlike any other theatre show. It’s true rock/ metal and allows the cast to really show off their vocal chops.

D9: Timely, considering the Menendez Bros. story of late! There is one thing that audiences are 100% on…your cast! What can you tell me???

MK: The words “high octane” come to mind when I think about this cast. The vocals are absolutely top notch and SO full of power. Under all of that, there is true connection to the material. Sam Evans as Lizzie brings such understanding and sympathy to the character and she really makes you want for Lizzie to gain freedom. Allie Haines as Emma is so fun to watch because she is really finding how it feels to have to been the head of a family at such a young age. MJ Janovich is taking Alice in a direction I’ve never seen with youthfulness and hurt (and just wait until you hear her belt) and Leah Fox is HILARIOUS and terrifying as the banshee, Bridget.

D9: Strong ladies, indeed!! One thing I know TheatreLab is trying to do is incorporate more of a community feel in their productions! How did the whole Mudlick idea emerge?

MK: We really wanted to focus on bringing the arts TO Dayton. Unique venues really bring the audience in to the art and allow them to become participants. We have been neighbors with Mudlick for years and we wanted to partner with an incredible company. The show has a true rock show feel in the industrial space and Mudlick is curating specialty cocktails for the shows! 

D9: I hear the cocktails have been a smash!! Such a great idea. I always say when people leave a show, they should be left with something…a thought, a feeling…..what are you hoping folks get out of Lizzie???

MK: I hope people walk away with 2 things.   1. That the talent in Dayton is worth investing in. The talent that you will see on that stage is worth keeping around. And 2: Women are angry and we have a voice and it’s about time you all listen. 

D9: I, for one, hear you!!! I want to reiterate that this town is overflowing with talented folks!! Thanks for mentioning that! And thanks for being such an asset to Dayton’s theatre community Mackensie! So, what about this mysterious ‘Season’ TheatreLab is keeping close???

MK: Everyone is so excited. Keep Your Eyes Peeled….the announcement is coming soon!

You can catch ‘Lizzie’ on its remaining dates….

November 1 & 2 at 8:00pm. November 3 at 2:00pm.

October 27, 2024 By Dayton937

Jimmy John’s revealed its latest menu item, the Picklewich, will be available nationwide from Oct. 28 through Nov. 14 in two variations stuffed inside a hollowed-out pickle.

The Vito Picklewich has salami, capocollo, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion and oil and vinegar (like Jimmy John’s classic Vito sandwich) to create an Italian sub experience in a pickle. The Turkey Picklewich layers some of the same toppings (lettuce, tomato and onion) with turkey and provolone.

Picklewiches with Pickle Jimmy Chips

To complement the Picklewich, Jimmy John’s is bringing back the fan-favorite Pickle Jimmy Chips. The salty, sour, dilly and delicious pickle flavor is added to classic Jimmy Chips that are made with real salt, 100% peanut oil, and thick sliced potatoes.

On National Sandwich Day, November 3, Jimmy John’s is offering Freaky Fast Reward Members 50% off the brand-new Picklewich when they purchase any 8-inch sandwich. Sign up to become a Freaky Fast Rewards member and start earning rewards and unlocking achievements at jimmyjohns.com/rewards.

Don’t worry if pickles aren’t your thing! Starting November 3, you can order your favorite 8-inch sandwich any time after 2 pm and make it a combo for free, which includes a bag of Jimmy Chips and a drink, throughout November and December.

Starbucks Gets Wicked with Movie-Inspired Drinks & Merch

October 24, 2024 By Dayton937

In a collaboration with Universal Pictures, Starbucks has released new drinks and merchandise to celebrate the upcoming release of “Wicked,” the book-turned-musical-turned-movie prequel to “The Wizard of Oz.”

With the movie premiere just a month away, Starbucks has added “Elphaba’s Cold Brew,” a peppermint cold brew topped with matcha cold foam and green sprinkles, and “Glinda’s Pink Potion,” a Mango Dragonfruit Refresher shaken with coconut milk and freeze-dried dragonfruit topped with non-dairy strawberry cold foam and pink sprinkles.

To further celebrate the release, Starbucks will add 16 new tumblers, cold cups, and mini cup keychains to their merch shelves on Nov. 7, inspired by the film’s main characters — the good witch Glinda and the wicked witch Elphaba — the City of Oz, and the pink and green color scheme. In addition, Starbucks will expand its “Discovery Series Collection,” which makes mugs featuring the names of prominent locations, to include Munchkinland, the Emerald City, and Shiz University, all fictional settings in the film.

Additionally, the coffee chain will have new Emerald City-inspired gift cards available for purchase in-store and through the app, with a special gold-colored mini card that doubles as a keychain with a minimum $50 load.

The movie is scheduled to come out Nov. 22 of this year, with “Wicked Part Two” scheduled to premiere Nov. 21, 2025.
