WELCOME! To The Eleventh Season

Producer Guy S. Little, Jr. w i t h the opening -on May 20th of Barefoot

I n The Park starring Tab Hunter, Producer Guy S. Little. Jr. is proud to begin his seeo+ decade of live theatre for .central Illlnols audiences. Long before Mr. Llttle opened the Grand Theatre back in 1957, he hoped and planned that someday he would have a theatre where musicals and plays could be presented. He got his first job in professional thea!re as an apprentice at the Keene, New Hampshtre Summer Theatre in 1951 and worked the two following summers a t the Gateway Musical Playhouse near Atlantic City,

After graduation from the university of Xi- ami Mr. Little took graduate courses a t Colum- bia 'university and The America? Theatre Wing before returning to central I l h n o ~ s In the sprlng of 1957 to look for a theatre location.

Not having success locating a suitable theatre in any of the larger cities in downstate Illinois, Mr. Little decided to lease the movie house in his native Sullivan. Since the opening of Brigadoon on July 3, 1957, Mr. Little has pre- sented 100 major productions-both plays and musicals-featuring many outstandin stars and supporting casts from Broadway, ~olfywood, T V and Opera. The flrst season ran nine weeks and had an attendance of 8,000. The Little Theatre- On The Square was open for twenty-five weeks last year and had an attendance of 80,000 . . . a most gratifying increase! In addition to his productions in Sullivan, Mr. Little mana ed the Piccolo Playhouse in Joliet and has gad touring productions that have played theatres in Michigan. Ohio and the Chicago area. Mr. Little i s often asked to open and manage other theatres in the midwest, but his devotion ia to The Little Theatre-On The Square and i ts loval audiences. Mr. Little works rea r around-booking outstanding stars such as June Allyson John Carradine Peter Palmer Rose- mary P ~ Z , Dennis w e a k , Robert ~ e d d , John Payne, Margaret O'Brien, Julia Meade Pat O'Brien Linda Darnell, Marie Wilson, ' ~ d d i e ~racke; Joe E. Brown, Marjorie Lord, Margar- e t Truman. Edward Everett Horton, Annamary Dickey, Jack Haskell, Margaret Hamilton and Cesar Romero.

Mr. Little has directed many of the pro- ductions. designed and built the scenery, and has appeared in many of the shows. Last season. in addltion to supervising all the productions, he ap eared aa Mr. Snow in Carousel, Joe Tay- lor fr. in Allegro Mr Foley in Never Too ~ a i e and Michae1'0'~;ill in The Moon 1s Blue.

Guy met his wife Jerili when they were both studylng theatre. a t thb University of Mi- ami. They have been married thirteen years and have .two children, Vanessa, age eleven, and Sean, a e five. Both children have been active in the gullivan productions.

The operation of a star theatre for ten years in a town with a population of less than 4,000 has been called "the miracle of Sullivan" by theatre historians. Guy S. Little, Jr. gratefully salutes the faithful central Illinois audiences who have patronized The Little Theatre-On The Square since 1957.
