I am very happy to have a new short play in this show. It is called Back and Forth and it is directed by Allison Hendrix and features the musical talents of Matt Test. It's weird, dark and funny and I am really looking forward to this show.

Today We Escape: Plays Inspired by OK COMPUTER Presented by Tympanic Theatre Company March 13th - April 4th, 2015 At The Den Theatre (1333 N. Milwaukee Ave.) Purchase tickets at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/even... For more info go to www.tympanictheatre.org Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. Sundays at 3 p.m. Special industry performance on Wednesday, March 25, at 7:30 p.m. A companion piece to Tympanic’s critically-acclaimed 2012 play festival, Deliver Us From Nowhere — itself drawn from Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska — Today We Escape pairs twelve Chicago playwrights and directors to create an evening of theatre inspired by Radiohead’s experimental album, OK Computer. Each writer will use a song on the record as the springboard for a short play before an ensemble of musicians composes original music based on the plays themselves. Like Deliver Us….Today We Escape is a meditation on how art reflects art; a live album in the most unique sense of the word, and a celebration of music that is at times detached, yet strangely comforting.

The Ray's Tap Reading Series Has Allergies

The Ray's Tap Reading Series will return November 9th for a show called The Ray's Tap Reading Series Has Allergies.

Water, cold, peanuts, cats, sunshine, mold, pollen, eggs, penicillin, anesthesia, tree nuts, seafood, latex, human touch and even exercise are making us break out into hives, speeding up our hearts and in some cases, killing us. Now Isn't that ridiculous? The show will be about dissecting allergies and our bored and nonsensical immune systems, mistaking mostly harmless and sometimes helpful things for dangerous enemies.

When: November 9th. 10 PM.

Where: The Prop Thtr. 3502 N. Elston Avenue

Who: Featuring the work of Natalie Edwards, David Isaacson, Charlotte Hamilton, Dave Snyder, Matt Test, Ruth McCormack, Erin Kahoa, Daniel Shapiro, Mark Chrisler, Tim Racine, Mason Johnson, Margaret Chapman and featuring the music of Tijuana Hercules. Hosted by Chris Bower.

How much?: The show is 15 dollars or pay-what-you-can (Seriously) We need to pay for the space but if you are broke, throw in a dollar. If you are really broke, come for free. Proceeds go to pay for the space, posters, buttons and the rest goes to the performers.

Will there be a bar? Yes.

Will there be a poster? Yes, there will be a poster very soon. Susie Kirkwood is hard at work.

Will there be buttons? Yes, there are always buttons.

Will it be funny? Yes, it will be funny and a lot of other things too.
