Congratulations to two members of our WMC family who will be gracing very special stages this holiday season! CLARE LILLIG (our Mary Poppins) will be singing at the Vatican (yes, THE Vatican!) for the pope! Additionally, MABEL LOPEZ (who played one of two Janes in our Mary Poppins) will be performing in Carmen with the Lyric Opera! We are so proud that both of these very talented performers have been in numerous shows with us over the years and look forward to seeing them and their families in the audience for our current show, Into The Woods Jr.

NOTICE: Months ago, we posted a notice about upcoming Hairspray auditions being held next week. Upon reading the script however and discussing the show with our board members, we decided the show presented some production challenges we were not in a position to deal with at this time. Consequently, we changed our February show to INTO THE WOODS JR., auditions for which will be held in December. There will be no auditions for Hairspray Jr.

IMPROVISATIONAL DRAMA CLASS! This Saturday (7/30), we are holding an Improv Drama Class at the Warren Tavern, 3s540 Second Street, Warrenville from 1:30-4:30. This class is being taught by Andrew Trygstad and will focus on things like how to add depth and realism to your characters and scenes, and one of the stickiest situations most actors dread - how to save a scene that's derailing. Andrew's classes are very informative and often feature lots of one on one time with the participants. The class is $25 and you can pre-register by texting 630-777-9810 or sign up at the door.

Do you think we need a new stage curtain? (Click on narrative to see pics of our current curtain.) After almost 30 years, our current curtain has given its life to some fabulous shows over the years like Joseph & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Mary Poppins, Annie Jr. and Schoolhouse Rock LIVE. It's replacement, a dazzling young upstart similar to that pictured below, comes with a hefty price tag, but promises incredible things like state-of-the art soundproofing and fireproofing as well as gorgeous looks. Please support community theatre by donating and/or sharing this post. Every little bit will help and be most appreciated! Thank you!

As anyone who has been on our stage knows, WMC Productions is in dire need of new stage curtains. As you can see from the photos below (only four of the dozen I took), our curtains have died more deaths than are seen in Hamlet. Last year, we got a quote to replace them with beautiful new, black...
