Specially priced tickets are available now on a first-come basis to attend both a matinee performance of the newly adapted musical “The Boys from Syracuse” and the 13th annual Senior Lifestyle Expo, all at The Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook Terrace this September.

Offered by the nonprofit Northeastern Illinois Area Agency on Aging, the $20 per person package price — available to groups and individuals of all ages — is less than a matinee theater ticket alone, even with a senior discount.

“The Boys from Syracuse,” a musical based on William Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors,” tells the story of identical twin brothers separated as young children. As adults, the twins’ servants also are long-separated twins. An engaging series of mistaken identities occur when all wind up in the same town and wives believe the wrong twins are their husbands.

“We hope that families will take advantage of this opportunity to see the play and learn about the abundance of services available throughout the region to make aging and caregiving a whole lot easier,” said Connie Kobitter, special events manager for the Northeastern Illinois Area Agency on Aging, which hosts the Expo.

Advance reservations are required for the play, which will take place at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 3.

The Senior Lifestyle Expo will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. that Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 4. The Expo is the largest and most comprehensive senior event of its kind. Highlights include live entertainment, a “Senior Idol” talent competition, interactive games, giveaways, educational seminars, and access to the products and services of more than 100 area companies and nonprofit organizations.

Expo proceeds benefit the Holiday Meals on Wheels program of the Area Agency on Aging, which provides nutritious meals to elders in need on holidays and weekends when the weekday program is closed.
