"Emmet Otter" Takes The Stage This Winter in Chicago!

The stage version of Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas is set to return this winter in Chicago. 



Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas play returns in the windy city's newly renovated Studebaker Theater.

The show has music and lyrics by Academy Award winner Paul Williams and a book by Timothy Allen McDonald and Christopher Gattelli, who will also
 direct and choreograph.

The live Emmet Otter stage production previously played at the Goodspeed Opera House in Connecticut in 2008 and was well-received off-Broadway at the New York’s New Victory Theater in Dec. of 2021.

The show has been developed further since the New Victory engagement and will feature a fresh cast.

Performances are to begin around Thanksgiving and run at least through the end of the year, with dates, details and ticket prices to be announced. 

Tickets will go on sale in July at fineartsbuilding.com/studebaker
