NEW SEASON

To celebrate its new space, the Provision Theater Company will host a gala reception on Saturday, September 12; a date that also marks the official opening of their season with a bigger and bolder version of one of Provision’s all time smash hit productions, Harry Chapin’s Cotton Patch Gospel, running September 10 through November 8.

susan-monizFollowing will be a new take on William Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew from January 27 through March 7, starring Chicago veterans  Tim Gregory and Susan Moniz.  In one of Shakespeare’s most popular romantic farces, the clash of an (almost) irresistible force with a (nearly) immovable object produces explosive (and madcap) results in this bold and fresh look at the battle of sexes.

World Premier!

Rounding out the season will be a World Premiere production of The Hiding Place, based on the autobiography of Corrie ten Boom. The show will run from April 7 through May 23.   the-hiding-placeThe story tells the inspiring tale of Holocaust survivor Corrie ten Boom.  With the World War II invasion of Holland , the ten Boom family joined the underground resistance to help save Jewish families.  Their lives were turned upside down when they were arrested and imprisoned in concentration camps themselves.  The play tells the dramatic tale of survival and hope as the ten Boom family is left with nothing to cling to but their faith.
