News & Events A Community of Caring. A Commitment to Recovery.
Gateway Community Foundation is bringing The Story of Bill W. & Dr. Bob to life in the play Bill W. & Dr. Bob
In partnership with Florida State College at Jacksonville and the Players by the Sea, Gateway Community Services will bring to the stage the founding of Alcoholics Anonymous with the production of the critically acclaimed Off-Broadway play Bill W. & Dr. Bob
The play will run January 27-30, 2011 at the Wilson Center for the Arts – located at FSCJ’s Beach Boulevard Campus - and will feature local performers telling the moving story of the relationship between the two men who struggled through their adversity and together founded Alcoholics Anonymous in 1935. Proceeds from the tickets will benefit Gateway Community Services and its programs which provide drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in Northeast Florida.
Presenting sponsors for the play are Steve and Debra Vining and Dan and Karen Curran. A partnership with Players by the Sea, Florida State Community College, Wilson Theater and Gateway Community Service promises to bring the most talented local actors to the stage. Florida State College at Jacksonville has generously donated the Wilson Center for the Arts for the performances.
