Mrs. Mannerly

Regional Comedy Revival

\(Recommended age 14\+\)

Travel back to 1967 with the charming comedy Mrs. Mannerly! Set in Steubenville, Ohio, this autobiographical play follows nine-year-old Jeffrey as he tackles the rigorous etiquette class of the formidable Mrs. Mannerly, a teacher with a mysterious past and zero tolerance for rudeness. Through mischief, determination, and surprising friendship, Jeffrey learns that manners are about more than just forks and napkins; they’re lessons in life, respect, and self-discovery. Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati brings back one of its most popular productions in its history, with Raymond McAnally and Dale Hodges reprising their roles from the sold-out run. Packed with sharp wit, heartwarming moments, and nostalgic humor, Mrs. Mannerly is a delightful romp that proves good manners—and laughter—never go out of style.
