Set in a tropical paradise with warm sea breezes, breathless sunsets and B-29 Bombers, South Pacific is one of the most romantic musical of all time, and also an uplifting tale that reminds us all of the importance of celebrating cultural differences.
Part of the dialogue from the current production in the BOLD series at Paramount’s Copley Theatre. The late, great Sam Shepard’s 1980 play True West is running through August 31. There is a reason this series is called BOLD. This is an intense, dark and, at times, funny play. There are moments of holding your breath, gasping out loud and, sometimes, laughing.
Paramount Theatre in Aurora will kick off the fourth season of its BOLD Series with Sam Shepard’s True West, running from July 16 through August 31, 2025, at the intimate Copley Theatre in downtown Aurora. See photos of the production.
Writers Theatre will concludes its 2022/23 Season with the Midwest Premiere A Distinct Society, a timely story—needed more now than ever—about finding each other across borders, both physical and emotional.
