Producer Guy S. Little, Jr. Welcomes You To

I t was in July of 1957 that Guy 8. Little, fr. first brought Broadway to Sullivan. I n only seven years The Little Theatre has become one of the outstanding theatres in the summer stock world. I t i s the only professional Equity music and drama theatre between Chicago and St. Louis and one of the few theatres in the country that presents a stock season of the latest B'way mu- sicals and plays on a proscenium stage in an air- conditioned. indoor theatre. The intimate Little Theatre has 500 seats with excellent sight-lines and acoustics. I n the pant seven seasons, some 60 top productions have been presented a t The Little Theatre. Patrons come from over a hundred miles to the north, south, east and west of Sullivan to enjoy an evening or matinee of outstanding musical and dramatic entertain- ment. Such outstanding stars as Eddie Bracken. Ann B. Davis, Annamary Dickey, Bruce Foote, Jack Haskell, Edward Everett Horton, Marjorie Lord. Eloise and Pat O'Brien. Peter Palmer, Rosemary Prinz, Margaret Trumah, Ruth War- rick and Margaret Whiting have appeared on The Little Theatre's stage during recent sea- sons. The Little Theatre has been completely decorated in red, gold and white with enlarged rest rooms, box office, a new balcony and additional air-conditioning. Now well established with Midwest audiences and considerably en- larged in scope. The Little Theatre launches i ts eiehth and most exciting season.
