SUMMARY:JKC Pub Night
DESCRIPTION:JKC PUB NIGHT \nYou’re Invited! \nJoin us on Sunday\, February 23rd\, at 5 PM for drinks and appetizers at Gracie O’Malley’s (4058 N. Milwaukee Ave\, Chicago). \nWe had such a wonderful time at our inaugural John Kelly Connolly Pub Night in November\, and we’d love to do it again! After the 3 PM matinee of Cygnus (which we’d love for you to attend—tickets available here)\, we invite you to gather with us\, talk theatre\, and raise a glass in John’s honor. \nOur dear friend and ensemble member\, John Kelly Connolly\, lived an incredible life and had a deep love for The Gift Theatre community. After every show\, you could find him at the local bar\, chatting with audience members about the performance and what they loved about The Gift. \nWe’d love to hear from you—what The Gift has meant to you and what keeps you coming back! \nThis event is FREE. Gracie O’Malley’s is generously providing the first round of drinks for our guests\, with a full bar and food menu available for purchase.\n\nSpace is limited\, so RSVP! \nThank you for supporting The Gift and celebrating our friend John. We can’t wait to see you there!\nJKC Pub Night\nSunday\, February 23rd\, 2025 at 5 PM\nGracie O’Malley’s Sports Bar\n4058 N. Milwaukee Ave\, Chicago\, IL 60641

SUMMARY:In the Works: ADIRONDACK CHAIR CIRCLE
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next In the Works staged reading! \nADIRONDACK CHAIR CIRCLE \nWritten by Stephanie Alison Walker \nDirected by ensemble member Marti Lyons \nFeaturing Ensemble Members : \nCyd Blakewell\, Paul D’Addario\, and Jennifer Glasse \nwith guest artists Erinn Fredin\, Krystal Ortiz\, and Emma Norville \nTuesday\, December 3rd at 7:30pm \nFilament Theatre- 4041 N. Milwaukee Ave \n“Banna is a perfection-seeking\, suburban mom who finds meaning in leading a group of like-minded moms fighting the school district’s indoctrination of children. But behind the impressive facade\, her marriage is in trouble\, her relationship with her teenager is strained\, and she is being tormented by an ever-present crow defiling her backyard. As Banna’s group gains notoriety and some sinister allies\, she is faced with a choice: to open up and evolve or to double down and become isolated.” \nIn the Works is a staged reading series focused on plays in development by local playwrights at all stages of their careers. Curated by Co-Artistic Director Brittany Burch\, performances are hosted on the city’s Northwest side and are free of admission \nStephanie Alison Walker is an award winning playwright committed to radical truth-telling in her work. Her plays are known for mining humor in darkness\, the personalization of the political\, the complexity of human emotions\, and the exploration and dramatization of the strength of women. \n
