Chicago Grand Guignol
April 28th, 2009 at 10:21 am (theater)
UPDATE: Sadly, this show has been canceled (although I’m hoping it just turns out to be postponed).
The Chicago Grand Guignol Theater Company makes its debut on Friday, May 1, presenting two classic plays from the original Parisian theater of the macabre: Tics, or Doing the Deed! and The Final Kiss.
As far as I know, this is the only Grand Guignol happening in the midwest, and as such it’s worth more than a little effort to check out.
