**** Recommended   If you and your family like holiday music, colorful costumes and awesome circus acts, Twas the Night Before by Cirque du Soleil is the show for you. Constantly changing lights illuminated the huge snowy shelf/slide on the Chicago Theatre stage as cast members leapt up and slid down!  Cirque du Soleil performers never fail to amaze audiences with their strength and grace.

**** Recommended **** After selling out a performance of "Late Night Catechism" during the winter, Theatre at the Center brought Sister back in "Put the Nuns in Charge", another in the "Nuns 4 Fun: series developed by Vicki Quade.  Quade herself came to Munster for this performance and Mother Superior had everyone laughing.  3 ½ Spotlights

If you were a fan of Don Knotts, then Karen Knotts’ nostalgic tribute to her father, Tied Up in Knotts! is the show for you.  Of course it’s full of stories, pictures and video clips from Knotts career, but there are a lot of family stories too.
