What family doesnt have its ups and downs? The time is Christmas 1183. At
first it seems that poor Eleanor hasnt a ball in her court. Shes been her
husbands prisoner in the castle for 10 years, and shes about to lose out
in the struggle for the succession to the throne. Henry wants to be
succeeded by his youngest son, the unpleasant John; Eleanor wants the throne
to go to her oldest boy, the warrior Richard. The other son, Geoffrey, just
isnt considered at all. The Lion in Winter features fascinating historical
characters who swirl with devious plots and devilish schemes in this
pseudo-historical piece of wit. The action revolves around Henrys skilled
tricks in outwitting his three hostile sons and his sarcastically vindictive
wife. The lion applies to his capacity for roaring and his general
forcefulness. Its Eleanor, however, who counters all of Henrys wit at one
point asking, "Well, what shall we hang?" asks Eleanor, "the holly or each
other?" The only difference from a modern family is that she means it
literally! An entertaining clash of wills. Jolly good fun! Tickets at
330.836.2626 between 10am and 4pm Mondays or between 10am and 5:30pm
Tues-Fri, or at www.weathervaneplayhouse.com.

die. The Best Part: The viewing audience gets to vote on the method of your
death! For hard-luck Eldon Phelps, the deal is irresistible. But does
