Some of the shows featured in the revue are Anything Goes, Big River, Hair, Pippin, My Fair Lady, She Loves Me, Sweeney Todd, The Full Monty, The Music Man, and Urinetown. (more…)

Wheaton Drama, Inc. (WDI), held its annual Colby Awards celebration August 4 at Playhouse 111. The Colby Awards are named in honor of Colby Jones, a longtime WDI member who passed away in 1996. The Awards recognize volunteers for their outstanding contributions backstage and behind the scenes.

This year’s Colby Awards evening began with an hour for socializing, cocktails, and hors d’oeuvres.  Following that, the Colby Committee interspersed the Awards presentation with song parodies.  After the presentations, attendees had time for more socializing, plus dessert and dancing. (more…)

The 2012 Children’s Workshop was a great success! A full enrollment of 94 students attended our morning elementary school program and afternoon middle school and high school workshops.  Many, many thanks to all involved!
