🎭 Dublin's Abbey Theater dazzles with two crowd-pleasing musicals this month. "Hadestown: Teen Edition" features 26 talented young performers from across central Ohio, presenting a fresh take on the Tony Award-winning folk opera about Orpheus and Eurydice. Running alongside it is the regional premiere of "Gutenberg! The Musical!", a comedic two-person show about playwrights pitching an over-the-top musical. Theater supervisor Joe Bishara steps onto the stage in "Gutenberg!" while also celebrating how these productions bring together local talent that has become "part of the fabric" of the Abbey's programming. Both shows continue through mid-August at the Abbey Theater of Dublin.
