SUMMARY:Theatre Club Outing - "Titanique" at the Water Tower Playhouse
DESCRIPTION:Come along on a crazy musical cruise with the Cliff Dwellers Theatre Club as we head down Michigan Avenue to the Water Tower Playhouse to see the much anticipated production of Titanique. \nFind out what really happened to Jack and Rose on that fateful night depicted in the blockbuster file “Titanic“. It all begins when Celine Dion hijacks a Titanic Museum tour and gives her wild take on the movie’s love story. \nThe production has garnered widespread acclaim since its off-Broadway inception\, earning the 2023 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical. Its success had led to international stagings in cities like Sydney and London\, with critics praising its blend of camp\, nostalgia\, and side-splitting humor. The Chicago premiere is a collaborative effort between Broadway In Chicago and Porchlight Music Theatre\, featuring an all-Chicago Cast. \nWednesday\, May 28\, 2025\nCurtain Time: 7 p.m.\nEstimated Maximum Show Only Ticket Cost – $110 (possible discount if we get 10 or more attendees) \nDinner and transportation to and from the theatre will be an option\, as always. Details to come! \nHopping onboard? Contact:\nRick Frendt\nrfrendt@comcast.net\n708-359-0806 \nIf you plan on joining the group for dinner\, let Rick know. He will make the dinner reservation for the whole group. \n  \n  \n
