Film News: ‘The Class’ at Chicago’s Music Box Theatre on Sept. 8, 2022



CHICAGO – “The Class,” a film with strong Chicagoland ties – both in the past and present – will have a one-night-only premiere at Chicago’s iconic Music Box Theatre on September 8th, 2022 (7pm). Select stars and production crew will attend, and all the deets are available by clicking THE CLASS.
“The Class,” written and directed by Nick Celozzi, has Anthony Michael Hall – harkening back to the filmed-in-Chicagoland John Hughes classic “The Breakfast Club” – going back to movie-land high school, but this time he is portraying the assistant principal. His co-star is former teen idol singer Debbie Gibson, and the young high schoolers cast include Charlie Gillespie (Netflix’s “Julie and the Phantoms”), Lyric Ross, Juliette Celozzi, Colin McCalla, Hannah Kepple and Michael Sebastian.
