Time of Your Life Players is a troupe of actors ranging in age from 55 years to the 70s, who create and perform original musical comedies in order to present a senior perspective and utilize diverse talents. The troupe has performed over 40 shows at senior centers, retirement homes and residences, assisted living facilities, public libraries, park districts, summer fests and the Bailiwick Arts Center, Apollo Theatre Studio, Stage 773 (formerly Theatre Building Chicago) and Greenhouse Theater Center.
Our mission is to educate and entertain from a senior perspective and to demonstrate that one can lead a creative life at any age.
This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency, and The Blowitz-Ridgeway Foundation.
Time of Your Life Players will give an encore performance of our original one-act musical comedy “Let's Have Fun With This” on Wednesday, January 25, 2012, at 1:30 p.m. at The Wilmette Theatre, 1122 Central Ave., Wilmette, Illinois.
