We can't believe it's been 5 years already! Come celebrate with us, the Moxie Sisters, and Jess Godwin at the Hideout on October 12th!

PERSONNEL Changes

With the excitement of a baby on the way, co-founder Michelle Kritselis will be transitioning from her role of Marketing Director on our Executive Artistic Team to a Board Member. We are looking forward to having her insights and dedication added to our stellar Board of Directors and to meet the little one in November.

We are thrilled to announce that BPB artistic associate Nick Shoda will be taking over the role of Marketing Director! Nick has been working with BPB both on and off stage since our very first production in 2010. His attention to detail, organization, passion, and deep understanding of The Brown Paper Box Co. makes him an exciting addition to the Executive Artistic Team.

Damian Wille will be piloting a new role for our company as our Social Media Coordinator. Damian has been an integral part of our production planning and brings with him a thorough knowledge of theatrical happenings in Chicago and beyond. Expect even more fun from BPB Co.'s online presence.
