Faces By Robin

See the way Cincy Shakes It when you watch one of the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company’s performances. If you want to see a traditionally performed and thoughtfully crafted theatrical piece, look no further. Contrary to the name, this theater troupe produces all manner of classical plays, from Jane Austen adaptations to works by the Great Bard himself.

Conveniently located downtown, the Woodstone Creek Winery and Distillery provides Cincinnati with wonderful access to a wide range of high quality wines, meads and spirits. This artisan winery and boutique distillery offers guests over the age of 21 the opportunity to sample some of these finely crafted wines in its elegant tasting rooms.

Blast off your weekend with a trip to The Comet. One of Cincinnati’s most popular nightlife options, this laid-back dive bar offers a killer combination of drinks, food and music. Choose from over 200 beers or have one specially mixed from the full bar. Munch on some of the most delicious San Francisco-style burritos outside of San Fran. You can even catch a live concert or hit up the jukebox for your favorite tunes.

Near the banks of the Ohio River you’ll find Sawyer Point. This large segment of Cincinnati’s Central Riverfront is filled to the brim with fun activities. The meticulously kept landscape draws in those who want a bit of green in the midst of the concrete jungle. Listen to a band playing on the pavilion or take advantage of the outdoor skating rink, tennis courts, sand volleyball courts, playground and water features.
