Mauritius @ the Northlight Theatre

Feb 24 2009

onstage_mauritius_artNorthlight Theatre has become one of our regular customers as of late,  and for their latest production, they’re bringing a unique thriller to the stage.  Who thought that a play about stamp collecting could be suspenseful?  Mauritius tells the story of half sisters who inherit a rare book of stamps that might contain one of the most prized stamps in the world.  Be sure to see the show where surprises hide behind every corner.  One thing that isn’t hiding are the Mauritius posters, which we’ll be distributing throughout the city.  

Mauritius is at the Northlight Theatre February 25 through April 5th.

The Last Days of Desmond Nani Reese @ Steppenwolf

Feb 19 2009

heather_woodbury_150x200A sort of mix of sci-fi and burlesque, The Last Days of Desmond Nani Reese is a unique and exciting story. In 2014, an “ethno-femino-dance anthropologist” travels to the post apocalyptic city of L.A. to complete her dissertation on “The History of the World, as Told by Loose Women.” Her last subject is Desmond “Nani” Reese, a once famous stripper who is now a 108 year-old crazy cat lady.  Written and performed by Heather Woodbury, Last Days is an entertaining look at outlaw women over the ages.  Through poster and flyer distribution, direction is promoting this one-night-only event that you won’t want to miss.

The Last Days of Desmond Reese is at Steppenwolf Theatre’s Downstairs Theatre on March 3rd.

The Wilmette Theatre

Feb 12 2009

logoWhen we were contacted by The Wimette Theatre, we have to say that we were impressed.  Not only has the theater been active in Wimette for almost 100 years, but they take the definition of “theater” to the max.  The WT presents movies, live theater and musical performances (Leon Redbone plays there in March) , and it is the home to the Actors Training Center.  For our first outing together, we will be distributing posters in Wilmette, Skokie, and the surrounding areas for Cupid Has A Heart On, a musical comedy by the Cupid Players.  We hope that this will be the start of a long lasting relationship with Wimette Theatre, and we look forward to working with them in the future.

The Wilmette Theatre is located at 1122 Central Ave. in Wilmette.

The Cupid Players presents Cupid Has A Heart On Friday, February 13th.

Rose and the Rime @ The House Theatre of Chicago

Feb 11 2009

show-icon

If you live in Chicago, you can appreciate the premise of Rose and the Rime: The tiny Michigan town of Radio Falls has been trapped in perpetual winter for a generation.  Snow and ice coat every tree branch and telephone wire, and the constant blizzard surrounding the town means there’s no way in or out. Sounds familiar, except in Chicago, we’re cursed by mother nature, not the Rime Witch.  The House Theatre of Chicago is very proud to present  ”an original Midwestern fairy tale.”  This is our first job with HTOC, and we are very happy to welcome them as our new clients. To help spread the word on Rose and the Rime, we will be distributing flyers and posters to theaters, retail locations, and other venues throughout Chicago.

 

Rose and the Rime is at The House Theatre of Chicago February 19th-April 11th.
