Tolton Play to Return to Local Area


If you missed Andrae Goodnight's inspiring and moving dramatic presentation of the life of the Servant of God Father Augustus Tolton, you still have a few opportunities to this excellent play from St. Luke Productions.

Tolton: From Slave to Priest will be performed in the coming days in the following cities in or near central Illinois:
  • St. Peters, Missouri - The performance will be at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 26th in All Saints Church Annex at 5 McMenamy Road. A free-will offering will be collected.
  • St. Louis, Missouri - The performance will begin at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 28th in the Cardinal Ritter College Preparatory High School Commons at 701 N. Spring Avenue.
  • St. Louis, Missouri - The show will start at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 29th in the gym of Trinity Catholic High School at 1720 Redman Road. Tickets are $5 for adults and $10 for a family or 3 more; youths under 18 are free.
  • Springfield, Illinois - Doors open at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 2nd, for a 6:30 p.m. performance at Dominican Hall of Sacred Heart-Griffin East Campus, Springfield, Illinois. A free-will offering will be collected.
I cannot urge you enough to see this play.

One of those in attendance at the Quincy performance at November 12th sent a card to me saying, "We knew it would be good, but we were so blessed to witness more of Father Tolton's inner struggles and the amount of obstacles he faced, combined with his perseverance in faith."

Another person at the same performance also wrote to me, saying, "I just returned home from [Quincy University] and the Fr. Tolton production!! It was awesome, so glad I went."

Do yourself a favor and see this performance before Advent begins!
