Know Theatre of Cincinnati
Know Theatre is Cincinnati’s Theatrical Playground. The Know showcases unexpected voices, new works, and plays that embrace the inherent theatricality of the live experience. Know Theatre seeks to be a place where artists and audiences feel welcome to take artistic risks, creating work that is cutting edge and accessible.
Located in the heart of Over-the-rhine, Know Theatre produces a mainstage season in its 99 seat blackbox theatre. Know Theatre’s lobby bar, The Underground, has a cabaret stage that hosts second stage programming and special events.
Know Theatre also produces the annual Cincinnati Fringe Festival each spring, 12 days of inventive experimental arts in venues throughout OtR.

Neil Gaiman’s “Neverwhere” is longer that their typical fare, featuring a larger cast of characters and more demanding set pieces. Happily, the Know is up to the task. “Neverwhere” is at turns hilarious and beautiful, and at all times, it is exactly what an adventure story should be.
