'A Steady Rain' Hits Chicago Feb.27 at the Royal George

By: Jan. 15, 2008

Seasoned New York producers Frank Gero, Jono Gero and Ray Gaspard are teaming together to present the Chicago Dramatists' critically acclaimed production of Keith Huff's new play, A Steady Rain. A Steady Rain received huge critical acclaim over its sold out six week run last September and October at Chicago Dramatists. Previews begin February 27, opening March 4 and tickets are on sale through April 27 at the Royal George Studio Theatre (1641 N. Halsted, Chicago).  The highly praised cast and artistic team will remain the same.

A Steady Rain explores love and rage on the streets of Chicago, as a routine domestic disturbance call sends two Chicagao cops, Denny (Randy Steinmeyer) and Joey (Peter DeFaria), on a harrowing journey that will test their loyalties and change their lives forever. Published in the October 15, 2005 edition of Performink, A Steady Rain has received workshop productions at New York Stage & Film's Powerhouse (July, 2006) and the Barrow Group Theater of New York (February, 2007).  These workshops, in addition to staged readings and other developmental programs at Chicago Dramatists, have led to a final product of intimacy, grace and power.

The performance schedule for A Steady Rain is Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.  

Ticket prices range from $30 to $45.  All tickets for police officers, firefighters and other uniformed personnel are $25 and available with the appropriate ID.   Student and senior discounts are also available.  Tickets can be purchased at the Royal George Box Office, 1641 N. Halsted, Chicago or by phone at 312.988.9000 .  Tickets can also be purchased through Ticketmaster, 312.902.1500 , Ticketmaster.com or all Ticketmaster ticket centers.  Discounted tickets for groups of 10 or more are available by calling Group Theater Tix at (312) 423-6612 or visiting www.grouptheatertix.com.
