OH, HAPPY DAY!

As Steep Theatre puts it:

An unanswered question rings through the halls of St. Boniface High School: “Who will help me?” Happy Days Are Here (Again), a World Premiere commission by Steep ensemble member Omer Abbas Salem, examines man-made “divine” power, who wields it, and if they should be trusted.

“one of the most powerful new Chicago plays of this year, heck, most any year.” Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

“[a] uniformly fine cast…Kazemi’s sharp direction…Salem’s play also may well enrage you (or re-enrage you) about an evil problem that continues to dog religious institutions, Catholic or otherwise.” Kerry Reader, Chicago Reader

TTS Alumni/ Staff INCLUDE: John Duncan (BFA 24) , Rich Adrian Lazatin (BFA 24) , Azar Kazemi (Faculty)

Happy Days Are Here (Again) Closes Oct. 27th at The Steppenwolf Space

The Bottoming Process at Theatre Wit

THE BOTTOMING PROCESS is a new play about two writers who meet at WeWork and fall in love – or something like it. One is a famed novelist, and the other is a nobody who’s mostly funny on Twitter. As they mate, date, and cohabitate, they’ll grapple with issues of race, sex, power, and the model minority myth, all to find out who’s really on top.

This one night FREE Staged Reading happens at Theatre Wit Nov. 7th at 7 PM!

TTS Alumni Include:

Rich Adrian (BFA 23′ ACTING)

Taylor (Tae) Santos (MFA ACTING 23′)

Carolyn Bradbury (MFA ACTING 20′)
