An Afternoon at the Theater in Western Springs!

Details

About the Meetup:
Please plan to arrive about 15 minutes before the start of the performance, we will meet inside the lobby. There are no assigned seats in the theater so we will try to seat together as a group as much as possible.

If some are interested in chatting about the play afterwards, we can grab a table at a local spot. This will be completely optional.

About the play:
Agatha Christie’s greatest detective’s most thrilling case! A tycoon is murdered on the world’s most luxurious train. Isolated with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on Hercule Poirot to find the murderer before they strike again!

About the theater:
Founded in 1929 by Western Springs resident Mary Cattell, The Little Theatre of Western Springs created an immediate reputation for quality theatre in suburban Chicago. Employing a unique in-house casting system in which company members are required to work backstage as well as performing, the theatre has run continuously for over 90 years.

In 1961, the theatre had outgrown its borrowed venues, and in an extraordinarily successful campaign, built its own 400-seat theatre building. Debuting now as “The Theatre of Western Springs,” its ongoing success allowed an expansion in 1976, when a second, 100-seat black-box theatre space, now called the Cattell Theatre, was added to the building.

In 1946, the Children’s Theatre of Western Springs was founded and each year trains over 400 students in all aspects of theatre, both on-stage and back-stage.

Producing a number of adult and student productions and workshops each year, this theatre is a place where a community of all ages comes together to train for, explore, and demonstrate the art of live theatre.

The Theatre of Western Springs’ mission is to entertain, to educate, to explore, and to inspire a community of all ages through the performing arts.
