Enjoy a Night of Friendship at Tuesdays With Morrie Production

This Friday, Sunset Playhouse will offer friends an opportunity to experience just how special life and friendship are during the theatre’s Tuesdays with Morrie production, set for 8 p.m. at 800 Elm Grove Road in Elm Grove.

The play, written by Jeffery Hatcher and Mitch Albom, is based on Albom’s bestselling book by the same name.  Mitch is a middle-aged man who visits his chronically ill friend and former sociology professor, Morrie, during Morrie’s final struggles with Lou Gehrig’s disease.

The history of the venue itself is also one of friendship, joy, and hard work, according to its website It’s actually the first playhouse in Wisconsin to have been built entirely by a community theatre group and was incorporated in the mid 1950s.

The cast includes Donald Devona as Morrie; Stephan Roselin as Mitch, and is directed by Matt Daniels.

Also part of the evening is a collection of works from The Dooryard Gallery called Visual Short Stories: Vintage Paintings by Janet Roberts, on display during the run of the production, through April 3.

Tickets: $15-20 for Friday and Saturday performances and $15-$18 for Thursday and Sunday performances. On Thursday, March 31, tickets are just $10.

Box Office: (262) 782-4430.
