Weekend Comedy -- February 11, 2010

It was an evening of friends, laughter, and theater history when OLLI traveled to Goodfield, Illinois to visit the Barn II Dinner Theater and enjoy a performance of "Weekend Comedy."

Prior to the performance, we were escorted into the dining area and treated to an exclusive presentation by the theater's managing director, Mary Simon. She gave an enthusiastic talk about the history of "The Barn," and its founding manager, Chaunce Conklin.

After her presentation, question-and-answer session, and a buffet dinner, we relaxed and enjoyed the performance, a comedy about two couples sharing a cabin over the Valentine's Day weekend.

OLLI extends a big thank you to Mary Simon and her staff at the theatre, who did an amazing job of making us feel welcome during the visit.
