Star Turn

This week one of my dreams came true - for someone else. One of my more bizarre ambitions is to own my own theatre, possibly because it's the only way anyone will ever stage any of my plays. Anyhow, this dreamer is Kandiss Hernandez, founder of Kidz Kabaret who has just opened the Center Stage Theatre for her children's acting school. I've been a supporter in one way or another since our early days in Naperville, so it was very cool to see her dream become a reality.
"Keep smiling and they'll never notice you forgot your pants..." The Naperville Jaycees present a cheque for $5,000.
Ta da! The theatre even has it's own walk..and wall..of fame.
A star is born...

Not sure this belongs to Dustin, but you never know....

The new Center Stage Theatre can be found on Quincy Avenue, Naperville. Its first production, The Sound of Music with a cast of children and moms stepping in as nuns begins tonight.
