LOVELAND recounts the emotional, hilarious and deeply human journey of Frannie Potts, an irreverent, lovable woman, never shy to speak her mind, as she confronts both her fellow passengers and the loss of the biggest love of her life. Cooped up with a cabin full of strangers, Frannie is flying from LA, where she now lives, to her childhood home in Loveland, Ohio. Over the course of the flight, buffeted by events both mental and physical, she stumbles her way from awkward confusion to a glimpse of the mystery, tragedy and beauty that unite us all. The audience is advised to fasten their seat belts as writer and performer Ann Randolph takes a crew of outrageous characters on the flight of their lives. Sex, Death, Chopin - this is one wild ride in the sky - and all at the cruising altitude of 30,000 feet.
Widely considered one of the most gifted and innovative writer-performers in the country, Randolph has been hailed by critics as 'revolutionary, Whitmanesque, and a tour de-force'. Her previous solo show, Squeeze Box, was the Winner of LA Weekly's Best Solo Show and the Los Angeles Times Ovation Award for Best Solo Show and was produced Off-Broadway by Mel Brooks and the late Anne Bancroft.
Randolph grew up in Loveland, Ohio and wrote this show in mid flight as she traveled back and forth from Los Angeles to Loveland to assist with her parents health issues. LOVELAND is currently playing every weekend in San Francisco to critical acclaim and has just been extended for another 2 months. She's bringing it to Cincinnati for one night only, so her mother, the inspiration for the show, can see it LIVE.
