Dark Musical Comedy Streeterville Explores Dirty Side of Old Chicago
- Full Price:
- $20.00
- Our Price:
- $10.00
Set at the conclusion of the 1893 World's Fair, Streeterville is a black musical comedy that exposes the dark underbelly of the gilded age Windy City. Mayor Carter Harrison is a beloved figure, but he's just made an enemy in an unhinged office seeker who just moved into a squatter's settlement filled with all manner of unsavory types. This landfill has been claimed by "Captain" George Wellington Streeter and soap magnate N.K. Fairbank, and their battle to control this rapidly growing land plays out under the gas lamps and tin ceilings of the wicked, brutal city by way of some catchy, off-color songs. Learn More

The description of the show wasn't accurate. It was mostly Jew vs Hindu. I've been to three shows at the Annoyance and each time I'm annoyed that I didn't learn from the last time. I won't go to this theater anymore.Written on Feb 01 2010

Description
“Some Paradise,” a new sketch show from The Annoyance revels in a world of ruined dreams. Performed by Adam Schwartz and Neal Dandade, Chicago’s premiere Judeo-Hindi comedy duo, “Some Paradise” compares how we see our lives and how they really are. It’s a tour of the vast Hawaii’s of the mind where lava-spewing volcanoes and tropical beaches sit side-by-side.
From grounded scenes exploring frustrated desire to absurd takes on classic mime, “Some Paradise” ensures an ordinary trip through a fantasy paradise will be fraught with laughs.
