“REEL Life”

Our spring production of “REEL Life” was a blast!!!  We had three fantastic, fun, fabulous performances.  You could see the joy on the faces of the actors, acting buddies and audience members.  Wearing the costumes from the 1940′s was especially special for our actors.  The men looked dashing and the women looked like Hollywood stars. They all danced and sang just like on the Broadway stage.   We’re already thinking about a theme for next year’s play.  So keep checking the site for upcoming news.

 

 

 

REEL Life update

13 Mar

We are hard at work on our upcoming production of “REEL Life”…..a show not to be missed.    Performances are at KANKAKEE HIGH SCHOOL on Jeffery Street in Kankakee, Ill., not Kankakee Junior High School on Crestwood in Kankakee.  Performances are Friday, March 30 and Saturday, March 31 at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, April 1 at 2:00 p.m.  Tickets are $5.00 for general seating and will be sold at the door.  The auditorium will open 1/2 hour before showtime.

“REEL Life” is a story set in the 1940′s about a troupe of washed-up movie actors who work together with a troupe of young “whipper snappers”  to revive their fading careers.  So, of course, they go to Hollywood, find the best producer, director and writers and make one more movie in hopes of winning the coveted “Oscar”. 

Come and see if our actors can sing and dance their way to the Academy Awards.
