We also take care of our little fledglings--ready for flying but not quite sure how to stay afloat--until they're ready to take off on their own. We take Read more

Thanksgiving

Posted on by Alyssa Vitale Posted in General | Comments Off

The DFPA and Box Office will both be closed from Wednesday, Nov. 23-Sunday, Nov. 27 for Thanksgiving. We’ll be open again on Monday the 28th to answer all your questions, but we’ll be taking the rest of the week of to celebrate with friends and family.

On behalf of everyone here at the DFPA, I’d like to wish everyone safe travels and a happy holiday, filled with tryptophan, crazy family members, and a muted Lions-Packers halftime show.

Travel Into the Woods

Posted on by Ariel Horvitz Posted in 2011-2012 Season, Dramaturg Post, General, ITW Dramaturg, Theatre | Comments Off

Come see the snow fall, the trees move, and the fairy tale come alive!

It’s the last week of Into the Woods and the show is doing great! Last week was a major success, with a sold out Friday, and this week started off the same way with Thursday’s performance. The past week there has been a buzz about Into the Woods so it was not a surprise that the theatre was practically full  despite the cold snow and hail! Yesterday was the talk-back session where the audience had the chance to ask some of the cast, the assistant director, and the costume designer questions about the process our production went through. The audience seemed very warm towards the panel and the questions were insightful. But don’t feel bad if you missed it, come see the play this weekend! Tickets are still available but hurry!! There is also a Red Mango (yummy smoothies and frozen yogurt) promotion going on…with the help of your ticket stub you can get a discount!

Hurry before the last midnight of our show happens and this fairytale book is closed.
