Upstart Performing Arts, part of the Lombard Park District, is bringing Haters by Don Zolidis to the stage with four performances November 6–8.

 

The autumn theatre production follows a school recycling challenge that grows into a race to impress Taylor Swift.

 

Students have just two weeks to collect 20,000 cans, hoping to earn the ultimate prize.

 

As the stakes grow, their pursuit takes some unexpected turns, raising the question of just how far a school competition can go.

 

The show offers an entertaining local theatre outing for residents looking for something different over the November weekend.

 

DATES & TIMES:

Friday, November 6, at 7 p.m.; 

Saturday, November 7, at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.; 

Sunday, November 8, at 2 p.m.

 

LOCATION: Check the Lombard Park District ticket page for the performance venue.

 

TICKETS: On sale now at lombardparks.com/theatre/.

 

With one evening performance and three daytime options, families and theatre fans have several opportunities to catch the show.

 

Support local performing arts and enjoy the creative energy of Upstart's fall production.
