Theatre Building Chicago and The Time of Your Life Players partner to redefine "rocker" for the over 50 crowd in the new musical Comedy, The Dreamers.
The Dreamers is the tale of a band of old rock and rollers anxiously awaiting word of a possible record contract and tour. Before word arrives the band is thrown into chaos, and threatened with dissolution. Can Guardian Angels sent by Elvis himself save the band?
"Partnering with the The Time of Your Life Players fits very well with our mission." Say's TBC's Artistic Director Allan Chambers. "The Dreamers fulfills TBC's desire to reach out and help developing theatre companies and bring new musical theatre to audiences here in Chicago. TBC works with so many new and very young theatres, it's refreshing to work with a group whose experience has only made them more dynamic and creative. New musical theatre is what we are all about. I'm delighted to be able to provide this show with a home at TBC."
Formed 2004, The Time of Your Life Players is comprised of a group of senior writers, directors and actors, age 55 and over dedicated to educating and entertaining from a senior perspective.
