Theater is a treasure

Posted February 20, 2020 12:00 am

I very much enjoyed the report on the Paramount Theatre in Aurora and their upcoming production of "The Secret of My Success." I feel compelled to chime in about the Paramount. Our family relocated to the area only months ago and recently saw "Beauty and the Beast" at the Paramount, and it was absolutely wonderful in every way. The theater is gorgeous and a treasure for the area. The show was absolutely world-class.

All of us living in the West Suburbs and beyond are very fortunate to have such a venue nearby; we don't have to experience the drive all the way to downtown Chicago and ticket prices are half what they are in Chicago (or NYC or LA). After living in the New York City and Los Angeles regions and seeing many musicals there (and at cities in between), I cannot believe my good fortune to have a venue like the Paramount so close to home. And I'm looking forward to seeing "Secret."
