Hull and Finch don costumes created especially for them, and appear in select scenes of A Christmas Carol directed by William Brown. Together with the cast, they take a bow and sing 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas' at curtain call. Following the performance, Hull will meet and greet audiences in the theater's lobby, where signed copies of his book, The Golden Jet, will be available for purchase. This event marks the fourth consecutive year that the Goodman and the Make-A-Wish Foundation have made a young person's dream of appearing on stage come true-and the theater's first partnership with the 2010 Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks. Tickets ($68+) to Bobby Hull/Make-A-Wish Night are available by calling the Box Office 312.443.3800 or visiting www.GoodmanTheatre.org.
