Stuck Here Together will keep you cuddled under your favorite blanket as Lou and Cheryl, a pair of grandparents, and their grandchildren, Noah, David, and Rachel, take you on a road trip through the great state of Illinois. These grandparents know how to travel and decide that Illinois is the best place to unplug from your phone and just listen to the voices on the radio. Their grandchildren, reluctantly resign to their rule.

You will be entertained by new contemporary stories written and performed by BG students.  Your heartstrings will be pulled as you listen to the real words of those who have lived here and experienced the changes our great state has endured.  You will laugh at the unfortunate Illinoisans who have been charged with crimes due to the "Wacky Laws" in some towns.  And, you may hear from a former president.  Plus, loads more!

All the work is original and allows the audience to sit back, unplug our eyes from a screen, and enjoy the stories that unfold.

DIRECTOR'S NOTE:  Being stuck here together is a gentle reminder of the good that comes from not being able to move from our spaces.  Sometimes, though, it’s a reminder of what we wish we could do outside of the comfort of our homes.  And, sometimes it’s the incredible togetherness we make under circumstances we could never have expected.

Being “stuck here together” in a creative space with BG students has been a reminder of how young thespians are passionate art makers.  They are a wealth of knowledge, energy, and creativity that I have been lucky to find togetherness with.  We will never forget how stuck here together we were, and I’m forever grateful.  I hope you enjoy their original work and find comfort being together with us.
