A fitting continuation to Culture Days would be to witness what\u2019s considered one of the greatest plays of the 20th century live, on stage.<br \/>\nTheatre Aurora is located at 159 Henderson Drive. Tickets to the upcoming season are available at the box office or online at www.theatreaurora.com<br \/>\nCulture Days is a collaborative movement that welcomes your participation.
