WHEN WE WERE YOUNG AND UNAFRAID

Greenhouse Theater Center, 2257 N. Lincoln Ave.
When We Were Young and Unafraid by Sarah Treem is set in 1972 at a bed-and-breakfast turned sanctuary for women escaping abuse. As the characters navigate their individual traumas, they form unexpected bonds, challenging societal norms and confronting their fears. This thought-provoking play offers a powerful look at feminism, survival, and solidarity as these women wrestle with their pasts while fighting for a better future.

GODS: A MUSICAL RAMPAGE
April 22 - May 23, 2027
Greenhouse Theater Center, 2257 N. Lincoln Ave.
After receiving rave reviews from it's Act 1 debut at Elgin Fringe Fest 2025, the full production of gods: A Musical Rampage will make its world premiere with JK Entertainment next year.
In this brand new musical by Kyle Reid Hass, a gay whore and his activist lover plot to murder a homophobic pastor. But their rebellion doesn't go unnoticed - they may have just pissed off a pantheon of ancient deities who aren't ready to be sidelined. Blending biting satire, queer chaos, and divine reckoning, gods is a furious, funny, and fearless piece of new musical theatre.
