	TOM LAWRENCE (Bootlegger since September 16, 1981) In our age of constant change and unremitting turmoil, it’s reassuring and comforting to see “TL” still cavorting about the varied venues of this hollowed old theatre. Look! There he is in salad prep. No, wait! Now he’s folding napkins in the laundry room! Wow! Now he’s singing like Sinatra and dancing like Astaire in The Bootlegger’s latest magnum opus! Well, okay, that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but anyway, the point is that I – I mean he still enjoys it, still has fun doing it and hopes all guests and co-workers will indulge him a while longer. Thanks for reading and have a great time with us.

Adam holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Theatre Performance from Bradley University, a Master of Fine Arts from Western Illinois University and a gold star in pouring coffee from no one in particular.
