1. Go See a Local Children's Theatre Musical
This weekend seems to be the weekend of the theatre! There are a few different options of local productions from community and school drama clubs, making it the perfect time to take your family to see these exciting shows and songs come to life on stage performed by kids just like them!
A favorite Glen Ellyn holiday tradition is starting early this year thanks to the Glen Ellyn Chamber of Commerce! Glen Art Theatre is hosting a weekly rotation of classic favorites through December.

One of the best winter light shows in the suburbs is back for the season!
