Proud to be. . .JDG!

Did you know. . . that the Joliet Drama Guild (“JDG”) has been bringing quality live theatre to the Joliet area for over 78 years?  Community Theatres like JDG breathe life into a community.  Through their involvement, participants have an opportunity to step outside themselves into a creative new world or set of life experiences.  Involvement also provides many opportunities to make new friends.

Did you know. . .that theatre in general is a collaborative art?  It isn’t about the actor – it’s about the team.  While the actors bring to life the playwright’s words, behind the scenes is a team of people who have created synergy to make the production itself happen. 

Did you know. . .that JDG is an organization run by a team of volunteers with a passion for live theatre?  As a volunteer organization, JDG relies on the support and involvement of its members for its success.

Did you know. . .that it is easy (and cost effective) to become a member of JDG? JDG offers its members a number of benefits as a thank you for their support too!
