In just a few short days, you can head "Over the Rainbow" with the Fox Valley Repertory Youth Ensemble production of The Wizard of Oz.
What's great about this?
Local businesses coming together to support local students. In addition to the advertisements businesses have purchased for the Wizard of Oz program, Delnor Express Care and the Kane County Chronicle are supporting the production in a big way with sponsorship dollars- and Fox Valley Repertory couldn't be happier for the partnership.
I’ve watched the community come together to support Fox Valley Rep, whether it’s through donations, ticket purchases, enrollments in arts academy classes, volunteer hours, or through company sponsorships. Since FVR helps to drive the local economy through employment, ticket sales, and their FVR Give$ Back Program (did you know that FVR has donated over $10,000 back to other local non-profits???), this is a great way to show your appreciation of the work they do for the community.
