An annual favorite! Our storytellers weave yarns of the supernatural; some funny, some terrifying. An outdoor event. 

The Rodgers and Hammerstein classic has some of the best loved songs in the world. You've sung them sometime in your life; who hasn't? Now you have a chance to sing it again at an invitation-only, red carpet gala at the Hollywood Palms.

Our own Summer Place member, Ted Waltmire, playwright, musician, and actor, will be discussing the original 1959 stage musical, “The Sound of Music," at Nichols Library on Monday, May 23, starting at 7:00pm.

Summer Place President Don Gingold interviews two authors on their World War II books and how these works can help us understand today's events.

Participants 17 and older meet from 1pm to 3pm. Register here.

Those 16 and under get their own workshop from 10am to 12pm. Register here.

We had such a wonderful time premiering our first performance, "Songs of Hope," that we're doing it again!

Before the pandemic, Summer Place Theater was busy preparing for our 54^th season. And then the world ended. What to do now? Well, ...

After a week-long virtual Kids Camp and still no live theatre on the horizon, it's clear that our adult community members need some way to keep their skills polished too. That's why we've asked our Kids Camp instructors to come back and share their expertise with a grown-up audience!

Calling all children, teens, and young adults who are beginners to theatre! Summer Place Theatre is kicking off a virtual summer season with a Zoom kids camp, which will include a variety of engaging and informative classes led by some of the best talents in Naperville.

Looking to up your storytelling game? Then this invitation is for you!

Learn proper story preparation, speaking, breathing and gesturing tips and specific microphone techniques during this two-hour workship. Then practice what you've learned by telling a story in front of your classmates. 

Come jingle with us at the mall this Monday, December 18! Our show starts at 8:00 and we're one of a number of acts performing there. 

"Summer Load-in, Had me a blast!" Danny Zuko or not, you too can be singing that after Saturday! Help us move all our #$!@!! from our winter storage facility to our summer home, Naperville Central High School Auditorium.

Join us Tuesday, April 11 for our next Play Selection Committee meeting. We'll be reviewing "Abraham Lincoln in Illinois" and talking about other plays.
