First Floor Theater to Present THE RECKONING OF KIT AND LITTLE BOOTS at The Den Theatre, 2/8-3/2

First Floor Theater is thrilled to present the Chicago Premiere of THE RECKONING OF KIT AND LITTLE BOOTS (TROKALB), Nat Cassidy's rip-roaring metaphysical buddy comedy, directed by Gus Menary, playing February 8 - March 2, 2014 at The Den Theatre. Tickets for TROKALB will be available at http://firstfloortheater.com/. The press opening is Saturday, February 8, 2014.

THE RECKONING OF KIT AND LITTLE BOOTS features Artistic Associate Kate Cornelius-Schecter with Owais Ahmed, Sarah Davis, Garrett Lutz, Tim Parker, AlFrEd Thomas and Dav Yendler.

The famous Elizabethan playwright, Christopher "Kit" Marlowe has been stabbed. While dying, he is visited by an apparition, the ghost of insane Roman Emperor Caligula ("Little Boots"). Caligula proceeds to walk Marlowe backwards through their respective histories exploring the power of infamy, the struggles of writing and the universal human spirit in this witty and ultimately moving comedy.

Will Bishop, Artistic Director of First Floor Theater, says "When Gus brought me this script, I knew it was a perfect fit for First Floor and our audiences. It combines Roman history, Elizabethan England, non-linear storytelling and metatheatrics to create a play like I have never experienced - blisteringly smart and unapologetically hilarious."

The production team for THE RECKONING OF KIT AND LITTLE BOOTS includes: Molly FitzMaurice (Set Design), David Federman (Light Design),Andrew Rovner (Sound Design), Alexis Chaney and Caroline Gelber (Costume Design), TJ Heins (Prop Design), Emmett Rensin (Dramaturg), Markie Gray (Production Manager) and Kelly Butler (Stage Manager).
