THEATRE - 8 PM - Circle Theatre, 7300 W. Madison Street,
Forest Park is proud to present "Enchanted April"
by Matthew Barber, from the novel by Elizabeth Von Arnim with
Direction, Scenic & Lighting Design by Bob Knuth. Dark clouds
may gather around the human heart and mind, and for those who
succumb, brighter days may never come. Such is the lesson of
Enchanted April, as four English women, whose lives have been
thrown into turmoil by war, break free of their rain-drenched
sorrows and oppression for a month spent in a rented Italian
castle. The opportunity for surprise and redemption awaits each,
and the magic of the trip comes to change their lives. This show
has been Jeff Recommended! Tickets: $26 for adults, $24 for
students and seniors (over 62), group discounts available. For
