SUMMARY:Redtwist Theatre Company Presents World Premiere of “Deserted\,” June 14 - August 2
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning Redtwist Theatre presents Deserted\, playing June 14 through August 2\, a world premiere by Melanie Coffey and directed by Laura Sturm\, at Redtwist Theatre\, 1044 W. Bryn Mawr Ave. \nJodie and Emma don’t want to live in the city anymore. With dreams of a new life\, a will to work hard and a generous grant\, they set out into a desertified landscape. They nurture their garden in a dying world\, but between a scorching climate and a very hungry neighbor\, farming provides more challenges than anticipated. The couple struggles to plant their own roots and comes to realize growing on dead land may be a bigger challenge than expected. Will a dying Earth leave them deserted? \nThe Deserted cast includes Macaria Chaparro Martinez (she/they\, Jodie); Hannah McCauley (she/her\, Emma); Emma Mansfield (she/they\, Neighbor); Shenise Danyel (she/her\, Cam) and Dontaye Albert (he/him\, Hiker). \nThe performance schedule is Thursdays – Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3:30 p.m. with a total running time of two hours including one intermission. Single tickets are now on sale for $10 – $60 at RedtwistTheatre.org with discounts available for seniors\, students and veterans with pay-what-you-can for all Friday night performances.

SUMMARY:The Metal Shop Performance Lab & JunkHeart Present “Anatomy of a Suicide\,”  August 12 - 30
DESCRIPTION:Produced in partnership with JunkHeart\, The Metal Shop Performance Lab is proud to present Anatomy of a Suicide\, August 12 – 30\, at Redtwist Theatre\, 1044 W Bryn Mawr Ave\, Chicago\, written by Alice Birch and directed by Alex Mallory. \nAnatomy of a Suicide follows three generations of women; a mother\, a daughter and a granddaughter\, whose individual stories are being told simultaneously. For each\, the pain and chaos of the women who came before them force them to question whether they will be able to escape this deeply rooted legacy and instead make their own. Alice Birch’s Susan Smith Blackburn Prize-winning play is an intimate exploration of inter-generational trauma\, told across three interlinking narratives. \nThe regular performance schedule is Wednesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 – $35 and may be purchased starting June 1 by visiting TheMetalShop.org. \n(Image L to R): Tatiana Pavela\, Taigé Lauren and Isabel Lee Roden
