When we were contacted by The Wimette Theatre, we have to say that we were impressed.  Not only has the theater been active in Wimette for almost 100 years, but they take the definition of “theater” to the max.  The WT presents movies, live theater and musical performances (Leon Redbone plays there in March) , and it is the home to the Actors Training Center.  For our first outing together, we will be distributing posters in Wilmette, Skokie, and the surrounding areas for Cupid Has A Heart On, a musical comedy by the Cupid Players.  We hope that this will be the start of a long lasting relationship with Wimette Theatre, and we look forward to working with them in the future.

The Wilmette Theatre is located at 1122 Central Ave. in Wilmette.

The Cupid Players presents Cupid Has A Heart On Friday, February 13th.
