SUMMARY:The Uncanny Attic: Chapters I-L Halloween Edition!
DESCRIPTION:The Uncanny Attic is a theatrical anthology inspired by Edward Gorey’s iconic The Gashlycrumb Tinies will return to Chicago’s Newport Theater on Halloween Eve! \nThis absurdist dark comedy series brings to life\, and then almost immediately to death\, the book’s twenty-six ill-fated children. Each installment ‘chapters’ of The Uncanny Attic creates imagined histories for four of Gorey’s ill-fated characters as told through puppetry\, clowning\, dance\, live music\, drag\, stop-motion animation\, and visual theater. \nFor Halloween’s Eve\, the Newport Theater transforms into an immersive Uncanny Attic experience with peculiar art\, Pocket Cemeteries\, Uncanny cocktails\, a curious photo op\, Edward Gorey-inspired prizes\, and other delightfully morbid surprises before the curtain even rises- costumes highly encouraged! \nThe Uncanny Attic is an original performance series created and produced by Chicago-based Beautifully Gruesome Productions\, the creative partnership of Jennifer Friedrich (The Bunny Royale) and Bazuka Joe. \nThe cast includes veteran performers in several disciplines including co-creators Jennifer Friedrich (Incurable Theater\, Redmoon Theater) and Bazuka Joe (Poonie’s Cabaret\, Newport Theater Camp)\, along with Jill Summers\, Susie Kirkwood\, Josh Levine and Mackenzie Shapiro\, Luc Ami\, Mz Love\, Karma Carnelian\, Derry Eire\, Marla Wyrd\, Lady Ve’Lush\, Vixxie Velvet\, and Vixen Violencia.  Poster Illustrations by Ken Gerleve. \n“The Uncanny Attic: Chapters I-L” adds these two final performances on Friday\, October 30th at 7pm & 10pm after a sold out run in September. The Newport Theater is located at 956 W. Newport Ave\, second floor.\nTickets range $25-$40 and can be found at www.NewportTheater.com and www.TheUncannyAttic.com.
