The History and Future of the Writer's Theatre

Jon Faris, the General Manager of Writers Theatre and  Chad Peterson, the Director of Marketing and Communications for Writers Theatre will discuss a bit of the history of the Theatre, from its founding in the back of a bookstore 23 years ago, to its subsequent partnership with the Woman's Library Club of Glencoe, as well as what they see as the future of the Theatre, which will include a lot of information about the new building—both the process that got them to where they are, breaking ground shortly after the date they’ve chosen to speak, and the various features of the building and how it will serve the Theatre and the community.  They will also talk a bit about the mission of the Theatre, and what makes it unique in both the Chicagoland and national theatre communities.  They will also have a power point presentation.
