Amazing Sammo Productions' AN ADULT EVENING OF SHEL SILVERSTEIN Set for Gorilla Tango Skokie, Now thru 8/17

Amazing Sammo Productions continues its 2013 season at Gorilla Tango's Skokie Theatre with AN ADULT EVENING OF Shel Silverstein written by the well-known poet and author.

The show is a collection of short plays with various themes and morals, much like his popular poetry for children... Only these plays - as the title suggests - have more of a mature audience in mind. Witness an intervention of a bag lady, a descriptive meeting at a bus stop, a meat and potato murder, the only talking dog in the world, and more. Come share in an evening of Shel Silverstein!

AN ADULT EVENING OF Shel Silverstein performs tonight, August 9th, 10th, 16th & 17th at 7:30pm at Gorilla Tango's Skokie Theatre (7924 Lincoln Ave, Skokie, IL 60077). Tickets are $12; to purchase tickets call 847-677-7761 or visit www.gorillatango.com. Produced by permission through Dramatist Play Services, Inc.

Directed by Amazing Sammo's Artistic Director, Joseph Schmidt and featuring Adelaide Burich, Josephine Fox, Danny Giovanni, Travis Marsala, Christian JamaAl Randle, Jake Roush, Mara Santos and Klaudia Siczek.
