The Show Opened! 2 More Weekends left!
Hi Backers & Friends!
We had a wonderful Opening Weekend at Links Hall, with two sold out shows, and two other performances that were about half-filled. Our audiences were so responsive and it was a very special experience.
We've now moved into a new space at Teatro Luna on N Clark and Irving Park Rd. Tickets can be bought here. Click!

P.S. So happy to see some of you backers at the show last weekend! Some of you, whom I've never met, I saw your names on a list, and I wished we could have talked but thank you so much for coming out! I hope you had a great evening.

The book signed by the entire cast & delivered before the opening of the show. This gorgeously designed book will be a combination of a theatre programme, photo booklet, and research of the various young people that the play is based on. In our opinion, one of the BEST rewards possible besides coming to see the play. Plus all of the above.
