The purpose of The Summer Place is to not only provide affordable entertainment of the highest caliber, but to offer a creative outlet for people of all ages. Indeed, many of our volunteer actors, singers, dancers, and backstage staff have gone on to careers in theatre. We employ an equally talented group of directors, choreographers, designers, technical experts, and musicians to complement the talent seen on stage.

The Summer Place has been Naperville’s community theatre since the 1960's. Founded by Donald Jamison and Dr. Donald Shanower of North Central College in 1966, the first seasons were held in a circus tent on an empty parking lot with seats donated by a local movie house.After several tornadoes the site was replaced with an outdoor pavilion, which, thanks to the Great Blizzard of 1979, was again replaced!
