Junior Board Cocktail Party!

By Rob Gordon

The Auditorium Theatre Junior Board is excited to announce that they will be hosting their first cocktail party on July 21^st prior to the performance of The All New Original Tribute to the Blues Brothers!

Since its inception last fall, the Junior Board has been gaining momentum and focusing on unique ways to fulfill its mission of increasing awareness of the Theatre’s educational efforts and programming, and raising funds for the restoration and preservation of the national historical landmark Auditorium building.

Tickets are currently on sale for $60 each. The package includes pre-show drinks including signature cocktails and a ticket to the performance. Tickets can be reserved by calling 312.922.2110, ext. 368.

I am certain that the event will be a great success as this represents the first manifestation of many board meetings and efforts on behalf of every Junior Board member. Personally, I will take great satisfaction seeing this idea in action for the first time and I look forward to many more exciting events to come. Please be sure to join us!

For more information on becoming involved with the Auditorium Theatre Junior Board, please call 312.922.2110, ext 368 or email at amartinez@auditoriumtheatre.org.
