UPCOMING EVENTS

Stay tuned for more info on our exciting 6th season!

Check us out at City Lit's Art of Adaptation July 9 & 10 where we will present a piece conceived and directed by new Associate Artistic Director Chris Zdenek (co-written by Executive Director Joshua Aaron Weinstein).

! is inspired by the Metal Gear Solid series of video games and examines the forces that shape our society. Round by round, HERO must use stealth maneuvers to capture GUARD. If successful, he will unlock rewards for the audience, but if he fails a penalty will be felt by everyone.

Let us know you're coming on Facebook.
Ticket available at www.citylit.org

Zdenek and Weinstein will also begin development on a new play in August at the University of Chicago's Summer Inc program. The Not King is an absurd comedy about the royalization of celebrity in America. King tells the story of a would-be king and his bride who are banished from their land and their journey back to the crown. Part Godfather, part Bananas, part Ubu Roi, part Hamlet, part TMZ and part Muppet Show, King is a mixed media production that deconstructs the idea of fame, questioning our responsibility in its creation and levity. There will be a special performance on Friday, August 12th. Check back soon for more info.
