The Guild Theater presents Bus Stop

The Guild Theater presents the classic play Bus Stop, written by William Inge (Picnic, The Dark at the Top of the Stairs). Written in 1955, it is a story about how people both deny themselves and actively seek out the basic human connections that many of us take for granted. Both funny and occasionally profound, Bus Stop has been entertaining audiences for decades, having been made into a major motion picture starring Marilyn Monroe (in a dramatic turn), adapted into a TV series, and having numerous revivals and performances worldwide. The Guild Theater aims to bring a new intimacy and closeness to the play by performing at the Des Plaines History Center (at 781 Pearson Street in downtown Des Plaines).
