MOUNT CARROLL, ILLINOIS (January 24, 2023) — Timber Lake Playhouse, the premier professional summer theatre of northwest Illinois, announces auditions for local children and adult for their upcoming 2022 Season.

Timber Lake Playhouse will again be casting local performers for the following performance opportunities:

MOLINE, ILLINOIS (January 18, 2023) — The downtown Moline Black Box Theatre presents Lauren Gunderson’s play Natural Shocks. Based on Hamlet's “To be or not to be,” Natural Shocks is a one-act tour-de-force that bursts to life when we meet a woman waiting out an imminent tornado in her basement. Angela, our fast-talking heroine, overflows with quirks, stories, and a final secret that puts the reality of guns in America in your very lap.

MOLINE, ILLINOIS (December 2, 2022) — The Western Front, Christmas, 1914. Out of the violence a silence, then a song. A German soldier steps into No Man’s Land singing “Stille Nacht.” Thus begins an extraordinary night of camaraderie, music, and peace. A remarkable true story, told in the words and songs of the men who lived it, so says the description of the musical “All is Calm.”

MOLINE, ILLINOIS (November 17, 2022) — GIT Improv and The Black Box Theatre of the Quad Cities are excited to announce their partnership providing GIT with a home and The Black Box Theatre a varied schedule of entertainment.

Jeff Adamson, owner of GIT Improv. Said, “We have maintained great communication with the Black Box and knowing we have a permanent home to complement our touring schedule is a wonderful partnership providing quality improv entertainment for the area.”
