The Waukegan Theatre Festival (WTF) has been around since the inception of Three Brothers Theatre over a decade ago.  It has been produced in many shapes and forms over the years, however, it has always been committed to showcasing new plays. 

This year, we have a series of four new plays just for you including two musicals for the first time ever!

Read on below to learn about this year’s festival:

The Perfect Team by Henry Allan
Dead for ten years, the spirit of legendary Broadway composer Jacob Lewis lingers in the mortal world, unable to rest until he completes one last story. He strikes a deal with Hugo Andrews, a young composer crippled by writer's block: in exchange for using Hugo's body to complete his final masterpiece, Jacob will help revive Hugo's creative brain. However, their uneasy alliance unravels when someone from Jacob's past reappears, disrupting the plan and wreaking havoc on Hugo's life. As tensions rise, the two must face the consequences of their pact before it's too late for Hugo.

It’s Coming from Inside the House by Kevin Blair
A series of staged comedic horror short plays of all shapes and sizes. You'll laugh, cry, and scream! 

The Point of Return by Conner Daley
The Point of Return is a new musical following the inner workings of HER mind after the loss of Papa. Watch her mind unravel through folksy songs and duets with danger that lives in her head, lies that have been, said and the fright that fills her with dread ,When all hope feels lost she pushes ahead, and fights to find her point of return. This show aims to bring awareness to mental health, and grief (There are mentions of suicide and suicidal thoughts).
