Tradition with a Twist!

For us, our theater group, Black Forest, the Abbie Hoffman Died for Our Sins Fest, is a tradition. Tradition as in doing traditional things. It's always in August. It's always a festival of theater, etc. And well, almost always, it's hosted at Mary Arrchie's space at Angel Island.

This year, the 25th, it's hosted at The Den. So tradition with a twist. We visited the Den last night for the first time to run tech for our two shows. What a cool, funky, space. It just has a great cozy, classy, bohemian vibe.

And the tech booth - lighting board & sound system are really first class. Just upped the ante. We are pretty happy with the way our shows are rounding into form.  Another rehearsal or two and well, "show-time!" This one will be memorable. If you live in or around Chicago, you should check it out this weekend!
