Performing, on stage
Very Little Theatre has big history

founded in 1929, incorporated in
1934, and has been in the same

1950.
Since forming VLT, members
have dedicated themselves to the
preservation of the theatre's
histdry. Photographs and informa
tion about its history are displayed
in the lobby, giving the group a
smalltown, homey atmosphere.

Highlighting the season will be a
20-year “reunion" performance of
''Damn Yankees,'' the first
musical VLT did.
VLT's 55 th season kicks
