Readers share their memories of Pheasant Run Resort

I am an actress and was in two shows at the beautiful Pheasant Run MainStage Theatre. It had so much potential, but sadly was never cherished enough to become what it could’ve been.

Photographed here is “Shrek the Musical.” I am the ugly duckling (on the left). It was such a beautiful place to perform and so close to home.

That area really needed a dedicated theater with a season. The next closest is Paramount in Aurora and Drury Lane in Oak Brook. So sad.

I worked for the organization for 18 years. I had the honor of working at Pheasant Run, St. Charles Hilton Garden Inn and Edward McArdle’s corporate office and finally overseeing the caregiving for Mr. McArdle and his wife, Marian.

We spent several New Year’s Eve celebrations at Pheasant Run with friends. It was always so much fun.

Great food and good service. We also attended the yearly motorcycle event. I realize that they were no longer in business, but it’s still so sad to see it burned to the ground.
