ALTON — Alton Little Theater is set to cap off its monumental 90th season in spectacular fashion with the classic musical, "Singin' in the Rain," running from May 10 through May 19, with potential additional dates due to high demand.

Among its founders in 1933 was our drama/English teacher Miss Colonius. Wouldn't she  be happy that it is still going strong....
