Listen above to hear Kiley describe the following productions:
- Julius Caesar performed by Pigeon Creek Shakespeare Company at the Rose Theater at the Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in Twin Lake, Michigan

- The Great American Trailer Park Musical performed at The Dio in Pinckney
- Rent performed at the Barn Theatre in Augusta
- A Night of Stars with Tennessee Williams written by young actor and writer Maxim Vinogradov, performed at the Slipstream Initiative in Ferndale
Kiley also said the 2017 Wilde Awards – Michigan’s version of the Tony Awards – will take place at The Berman Center for Performing Arts in West Bloomfield on Aug. 28 at 8 p.m.
