Hello everyone! I know you’re still anxiously awaiting our next production…but, in the meantime, we are hoping you’ll support our own Gina Belt-Daniels as she directs “I Hate Hamlet” opening in couple weeks in Elgin. Check it out. (Many of the actors are ones you’ve enjoyed in our previous shows.) They’ve been rehearsing up here in CL and the set is being built in our own scene shop. We hope you enjoy the show at Elgin Theatre Company v. 2.0!

This show was to be part of our 2020 "Eat, Play, Give!" theater festival. Unfortunately COVID-19 had other ideas!
Here's a great article: https://amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/620033/

Waiting for Godot is a classic that feels like it was written for the Delta era of the pandemic.

Tell us what you are most waiting for in 2021!

A long time ago, way back last spring, in a galaxy far, far away, we were planning a season of "Eat, Play, Give!" shows for the summer season. The theme of our season was to be "What Are You Waiting For?". It seems so appropriate somehow in this 2020 pandemic year that we are experiencing. This was to be our theme song (have a listen): https://youtu.be/OZz1SIsg4ns

We wish you a blessed Christmas and a much happier New Year!

Hello Friends! Although this was the season not-to-be, we are hoping you are all well and anticipating our next year's season. All these shows were cast (and at least one was rehearsed and ready to go). At his point we are hoping to present them all next summer with most of the casts remaining the same! Ironically, our theme for this "Eat ,Play, Give!" festival was "What are you waiting for?". We hope this is answered by you as "We are anxiously waiting for 'Eat, Play, Give 2021!" See you then! ❤️
