Cincinnati Shakespeare Presents Appalachian Shakespeare Center in: Lil Willy’s Panto-Loons! A Night of Shakespearean(ish) Sketch Comedy

January 16 - 17, 2026

Lil Willy's Panto-Loons is a wild and wacky night of original sketch comedy and music.

Players from AppShakes are joined by Cincy Shakes favorites Jeremy Dubin, Courtney Lucien, and Jasimine Bouldin, directed by Matthew Lewis Johnson, to present puppets, pop culture, and oblique Shakespeare references for two nights only- what’s not to love?

Tickets $25. Immature adult audiences only. Contains strong language.
