In celebration of the most powerful bond that any man and woman can share (we're looking at you heteros) world famous improv club, iO, is thrilled to announce '1, 2, Fag + Hag!' If you have doubts that this is the most powerful bond throughout history just look at Kathy Griffin and Anderson Cooper, Madonna and Rupert Everett, and Betsy Ross and the Founding Fathers or come to '1, 2, Fag + Hag'. Seth Dodson and Kellen Alexander of iO's long-running headlining act '1, 2, 3, Fag!' will be bringing in Chicago's top female improvisers to perform their signature improv style of intertwining scenes with bold, outrageous characters.

But three other individuals are perhaps most responsible for the overall delight that is Tennessee Rep's 25th Anniversary season production: director Rene Dunshee Copeland, whose imaginative work helps to re-invent this musical on a basis that is at once more intimate while, somehow, is on a grander scale; music director Paul Carrol Binkley, whose concept for performing the work's music gives it the ideal down-home feel that only a band of expert Nashville players can give it; and design genius Gary Hoff, who transforms Johnson's black box space into something we've never seen in that venue before - the proscenium theatre you've only seen in your mind's eye - and who, in so doing, elevates Nashville theatrical design beyond its previous limits, fashioning it into something of opulently epic proportions.
