On the East Side of the Sauare Across from the ~ittle~hiater A lot of folks have made the Red Fox their "before-and-after-theater" place. And why not, when before the play, you can unwind in the beautiful Tack Room, with your favorite cocktail and a sizzling Prime Steak. Or how about a delicious Barbecue Rib or Chicken dinner. . .straight from the famous Hickory Pit? And after the show, there's nothing like the Red Fox for a nightcap with friends. So make it a perfect evening. For a "curtain raiser", or a "curtain call" it's the Red Fox. Just look across the street.

"You're Solid With Us" Guy Little, Jr's. education and training in all WELCOME TO THE phases of theatre make him aware that young persons aspiring to a career in theatre need professional training. Therefore, he offers an Apprenticeship FOURTEENTH SEASON! Scholarship Program each season for 25 to 40 talented students. The L~ttleTheatre-On The Square is one of the few theatres in the country which has such a program-most theatres require tuition for their training program. Guy met his wife. Jerili, while both were attending the University of Miami, from where they graduated. They have been married for 16 years and have two children. Vanessa. age 14 and Sean. age 8. The entire family has taken part in the theatre apera- tion in various ways: Jerili has appeared in over fifty productions on the Sullivan stage along with starring in other midwest theatres; Vanessa IS following in the footlight career, holding her Actors' Equity membership for three years now with many fine acting parts behind her; Sean alternates his interest between theatre and an avid curiosity about farming, although, he has had several good stage appearances also. Although Guy is primarily known as a proddcer, his rare appearances on his own stage delight the steady patrons. He usually assigns himself to walk-on parts which are brief but a necessary part of the show and little does the audience know that perhaps he was assisting in some technical. costume or administrative duty just moments before and after his appearance. He works in any department which might be in need of traieed services, if he feels that department needs extra assistance. He has directed, desimed, built scenery taken charge of props acted as lightinz and sohnd technician along wiih some major and minor roles on stage. However, most of his time is spent scheduling his long season. negotiating for new musicals and plays and for the outstandina stars from Broadway Hollywood and televis/on. staffing the theatre 'with top directors, musrcal directors, choreographers, scenic and costume de- signers, technical directors and the other necessary staff personnel. Mr. Little personally casts all the roles in all of his major productions and selects the apprentice company after auditions in New York, Chicago and Sullivan. Guy is blessed with parents who believed in his ability to succeed in openine a professional theatre and Mrs. Guy S. Little Sr. has not only made In 1957, Guy S. Little.
