Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati, one of the most acclaimed regional theatres in Southwest Ohio, has postponed the remainder of its 2021-2022 productions due to COVID concerns.

“Out of an abundance of caution and in anticipation of an increase of local COVID cases fueled by the Omicron variant and post-holiday surges, Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati will be postponing its remaining 2021-2022 productions by a few weeks,” noted organizers.

“We are still battling COVID and all that goes with it,” said D. Lynn Meyers, ETC producing artistic director.
