The Towle Theater is pleased to open their 2024 Season with the Northwest Indiana premiere of the musical, The Story of My Life by Neil Bartram and Brian Hill. The production is Directed by Jeff Casey, Assistant Directed by Nikki Dizon and Music Direction by Elizabeth Tuazon. The production is sponsored by Calumet Electric Supply Corp. with Printing Sponsorship by Leon Dombrowski & Seda Turan and Accucraft Imaging.
The Story of My Life follows the friendship of Alvin and Thomas, two men from a small town. These lifelong friends are reunited after Alvin's mysterious death. In the abstract world of his mind, Thomas struggles to write Alvin's eulogy while recounting the many turns that their lives have taken since meeting as children. Alvin searches through the manuscripts and stories in Thomas' mind to lead him on a journey of remembrance. Through music and song, these two friends recount their adventures, explore their past dissonance and ultimately discover what is at the base of every strong friendship... love.
The Towle welcomes newcomers Daniel Rausch (Chicago, IL) as Thomas Weaver and Max Trotter (Bensenville, IL) as Alvin Kelby.
(L-R) Max Trotter, Daniel Rausch
