Congratulations to Roche Schulfer, longtime Goodman Theatre Executive Director/ #CEO, who this week concludes an extraordinary 51-year career that originated in the Goodman box office at the Art Institute’s Kenneth Sawyer Goodman Memorial Theatre. Since 1973, Roche has helped launch initiatives we continue today: the annual production of A Christmas Carol, which has become a beloved Chicago holiday tradition; an ongoing commitment to diverse programming; and education and engagement programs designed to serve Chicagoland learners of all ages. Thank you, Roche, for the profound impact you've had on the Goodman and Chicago's cultural landscape over five decades of service! #GoodmanTheatre #Chicago #PerformingArts Video courtesy of HMS Media
