The classic tale by Jane Austen courtesy of Chamber Opera Chicago makes its way to the stage of the Athenaeum Theatre for it’s Chicago debut! We previously worked with Chamber Opera Chicago on their annual holiday classic Amuhl and the Night Visitors, and we are very excited that they invited us to work with them again on their latest production.

We’ve begun a distribution to bring our allotted materials to various points in Chicago. Pride and Prejudice is only in town for three performances, so be sure to get tickets before it’s too late!

Pride and Prejudice is at the Athenaeum Theatre February 27th, March 6th, and 7th. Please visit www.chamberoperachicago.org for more information.

Soon, the unstoppable Million Dollar Quartet will be debuting on Broadway. But, that doesn’t mean the curtain is closing in Chicago just yet. MDQ is back for another extension, this time through the month of March! We have played a significant role in the promotion of this production over the past year, doing everything from hand-2-hand distributions to banner back pack promos, to on-the-street video interviews.  This time around, we’ll be distributing coasters to bars, pubs, theaters, and other venues in the city. If  you happen to spot one, be sure to hold on to it in order to get an $8 discount on select tickets!

Million Dollar Quartet is at the Apollo Theater through March 28th. Please visit www.apollochicago.com for more information.

Lifeline Theatre is excited to bring The Last of the Dragons to life on stage! Based on the story by Edith Nesbit and adapted by David Bareford, Dragons takes place in the land of Astoria, where tradition dictates that every princess be given to a fire-breathing dragon so she can be saved by a handsome prince. But what happens when this tradition is challenged?

We have begun a citywide distribution in support of The Last of the Dragons, bringing handbills and posters to all corners of the city. Don’t miss this very entertaining production that’s fun for the whole family!

The Last of the Dragons is playing at Lifeline Theater through February 10th.  Please visit www.lifelinetheatre.com for more information.

The classical ballet production makes its way to the Francis W. Parker School for the holiday season. As part of Chicago Festival Ballet, The Nutcracker will be appearing for an afternoon performance, featuring world class dancers and some of Chicagoland’s most talented dance students.

We’ve begun a massive poster campaign in order to help bolster the profile of the performance. Since this is a one-time only engagement, tickets are sure to become scarce fairly quick.  Get yours before it’s too late!

If you were at the annual Lights Festival or Thanksgiving Day Parade, there’s a good chance you saw folks wearing Million Dollar Quartet banner packs, and handing out flyers to people waiting patiently for the parade. That was us!  We handed out thousands of flyers (that we printed in house!) which contained $8 off coupons for tickets. MDQ has been running strong for over a year now, and is about to make the jump to New York for a run on Broadway.  We have been involved with the production from day one, and were happy to do a holiday push. If you haven’t checked it out, go and see the show that has become a musical sensation!

Million Dollar Quartet is at the Apollo Theater through January 3rd.

The musical version of the hit movie makes it’s way to Chicago!  Adapted for the stage by director Stephen Daldry, choreographer Peter Darling, writer Lee Hall, and with music by Elton John, Billy Elliot is the winner of ten Tony Awards, and one of the hottest musicals getting rave reviews from both critics and fans alike.

In order to build awareness for tickets going on sale, we will have a team out flyering this Friday afternoon in the downtown area.  This is sure to be one of the biggest shows of the spring, so be sure to grab a flyer from us, and learn how you can get tickets to the musical called “the best show you will ever see” by the New York Post.

Billy Elliot The Musical opens at the Ford Center/Oriental Theatre on March 18, 2010.  Tickets go on sale Novmber 20th.  For more information, please visit www.billyelliotchicago.com.

Like many I’ve spoken with recently, I had no idea who Florence Foster Jenkins was until a recent discussion on the hilarious Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me. Since then, I’ve heard her name brought up more then once in recent conversations. Florence Foster Jenkins’ recent thrust in the spotlight makes me all the more excited to see Northlight Theatre’s latest production, Souvenir. This uproarious and musical story inspired by Florence Foster Jenkins the “Tone-Deaf Diva”: a New York socialite whose tin ear couldn’t keep her off the stage at Carnegie Hall.  As seen through the eyes of her beloved accompanist, Souvenir is a touching and comic tribute to Ms. Jenkins’ sincerity, ambition, deep love of music and complete lack of talent, all of which brought a unique joy to thousands.

Souvenir is currently running and plays through December 20th. Tickets are available here and if tickets are purchased for performances prior to the 20th of November you’ll save $5.

We’re very excited to be working for the first time with Rosemont Theatre on the latest incarnation of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s South Pacific as it makes it’s way to the Rosemont for a limited run. The Broadway classic, South Pacific tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples — US Navy nurse Nellie Forbush and French plantation owner Emile de Becque and Navy Airman Joe Cable and a young local native girl Liat — and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of war and by their own prejudices.

Our services for Rosemont Theatre include poster and flyer distribution throughout the Loop and our North Shore retail locations. South Pacific is only in town for 8 shows starting November 24th and running through November 29th. Often lauded as the best musical ever written, this show is not to be missed!

Rosemont Theatre is located in well, Rosemont at 5400 North River Rd. Tickets can be purchased through ticketmaster.com or by calling 800.745.3000.
