(5th and Daniel St. Champaign)

Bring your colleagues and friends to Phillip Johnston’s presentation on the research for the play “Tom”. You will enjoy learning about everything that goes into researching, writing and performing a play as a professional.

The play is based on the correspondence, photographs and diaries of Tom McKinney, a member of the Irish fusiliers in World War I. This past summer, it saw a highly successful staging in Belfast, and plans are underway to bring it to the Krannert Center soon.
