Dream Theatre Company to Present AUDIENCE ANNIHILATED PART TWO: GOLD STAR STICKER, 10/17-11/2

Dream Theatre Company presents its award-winning, critically acclaimed horror play AUDIENCE ANNIHILATED PART TWO: GOLD STAR STICKER by Jeremy Menekseoglu at its Dream Laboratory venue located in Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood.

Part haunted house, part horror show, Dream Theatre once again shatters the boundary and blurs all lines between actor and audience with this chilling journey through a child's horrific nightmare. Audience members will chose one of two roles to play. To play the lead role, chose Little Princess (with up to three other friends) and interact with the menacing figures lurking in the shadows. To be a part of the gallery audience of ten, chose the Babysitter role and watch to horror unfold before your eyes.

YOU sit on a small rug in front of a dusty television. The living room is smoke-filled and dim. The furniture is mismatched and is a mixture of battered estate relics and items rescued from dumpsters. YOU are watching a horror film. The kind of movie that is far too scary for a child of six. But MISTER BEAR is with YOU, and he can sometimes provide comfort. He is lying on top of the television staring up at the ceiling. He likes that. This is YOUR home, little princess. Welcome.

Menekseoglu's immersive experience has been deemed a "poetic phantasmagoric" and "thrillingly too close for comfort." The Chicago Reader recognized Audience Annihilated in the 2014 Best of Chicago awarding it Best 15-Minute Horror Show and calling it "the most chilling horrific 15 minutes I've endured in a long time...you walk away from the experience feeling thrillingly alive."

AUDIENCE ANNIHILATED PART TWO: GOLD STAR STICKER will be performed Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings from October 17th through November 2nd. This show will be performed four times each evening. Show times are 8 p.m., 8:30 p.m., 9 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Directed by Dream Theatre Company artistic director Jeremy Menekseoglu and featuring company members Anna W Menekseoglu, Jeremy Menekseoglu, Amanda Lynn Meyer, Nicole Roberts and Madelaine Schmitt.
