The classic work “The Iliad” is getting a new look. This new adaptation by Craig Wright features an all-female, all young cast. The themes of vengeance, loyalty and honor are all there, they’re just not being interpreted by old white men. This performance has violence, gender politics and some tunes. It’s not your grandfather’s Trojan War.

We’ve been blanketing the north side of Chicago with the news of this production.

“The Iliad” runs until December 19 at the Red Orchid Theatre. Please visit aredorchidtheatre.org for more information.

A Red Orchid Theatre has been kicking out some great productions over the years, but, you might not be aware of the courses they offer for kids. With classes that teach basic and advanced audition techniques, it is a great launch pad for all young entertainers. Other courses include Story Stages, AROT Youth Ensemble, and Chicago Ensemble Theatre for Teens.

We’ll be distributing handbills at various kid and teen oriented locations throughout the city which list all that Red Orkids has to offer.  Be sure to pick one up, and find out how to enroll your kids today!

Abigail is having a party and none of you are invited, but do not miss the cocktail party just down the block.  Beverly and Lawrence are having the “grown-ups” over and this party promises hilarity and horror the likes of which you can not imagine.  Such is the scenario for A Red Orchid Theatre’s latest production Abigail’s Party.

We are excited to be a part of another show from our friends at the Red Orchid.  We recently worked with them on their holiday production of A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pageant, and his time around we will be bringing handbills and posters throughout the city with a heavy concentration in Red Orchid’s own neighborhood of Old Town. be sure to check out their website to find out how you can get tickets to the show!

The Off-Broadway cult hit returns this year to Chicago for the holiday season!  Come see the show that pokes fun at L. Ron Hubbard and all of his clones. The Chicago Tribune describes A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pagent as  having “a real aura of homemade sophistication, and it uses this very intimate theater to great comic effect.”

We will be launching an extensive promotional campaign and distribution for A Red Orchid Theatre, bringing handbills and posters to all corners of the city. There will be plenty of jokes involving e-meters, Tom Cruise, and Hubbard himself.  Be sure to see the show while it’s here!

A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pagent is at A Red Orchid Theatre through January 3rd.
