The Little Theatre Company That Could…
​
The Indian Valley Theatre was originally created as Indian Valley Children’s Theatre by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) living in the Sandwich Area (the name was later shortened to Indian Valley Theater (IVT)) Many of those women were teachers in the Sandwich schools and had recognized a need for appreciation of the performing arts in the community. They provided startup donations for their first production, “Hansel and Gretel”, which was performed at the Plano Middle School in the spring of 1983. This production was a huge success in our rural community and to this day, IVT remains a community-based organization bringing theater to the Sandwich Opera House.
Upcoming Shows
Ladies this show is for you! "Birthday Club" is about five women who get together for their birthdays, each
with their own story, to drink, celebrate, commiserate, and support each other as they negotiate through
marriage, work, divorce, birth, kids, and solve the problems of the world.
Cheryl, Kathy, Emily and Abbie started Birthday Club five years ago when their friend, Jennifer, was diagnosed with cancer, as a support group to help her get through it. When Jennifer recently passed away, they had an opening for a new member. However, it’s not easy to join Birthday Club. Birthday Club is very exclusive, and there’s a three year waiting list. They bring in Sarah as a potential member, but first Sarah must make it through the “interview” and agree to abide by the eight rules of Birthday Club, to be considered an official member. One by one we learn of their personal, work and family issues, and when it’s revealed that one of them went out with another’s husband, the Vodka hits the fan.
​
The question is, will Birthday Club survive, or will Rule #5 end it forever?!
