GayCo Productions Presents LIT!, Previews 11/28

By:

What do trees, houses, Uncle Stu, and Debbie from Accounting all have in common? ... During the holidays, they all get LIT! And this holiday season, GayCo would like you to do the same.

This holiday, Chicago's premiere LGBT comedy company, GayCo Productions, celebrates their fifteenth anniversary with a brand new Christmas comedy revue, LIT! Running 8PM Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays in December at The Annoyance Theatre.

Gather around a yule log (whatever the hell that is) and bask in the warm glow of GayCo's unique perspective on the holidays. Watch how the Tea Party celebrates their favorite day of the year and witness commercialism tear a small town asunder! Sugar Plum Fairies come together to light up the stage, as holiday traditions like office parties, shopping, and everyone's favorite ... drinking!... are roasted like chestnuts.

This year, Christmas may seem 1% decadent, 99% scrooged. But a GayCo Christmas is always 1% vodka, 99% vodka. LIT! is a festive cocktail of joy, sass and absurdity to warm you up on in these cold, uncertain times.

Directed by Piero Procaccini
Musical Direction by Amanda Murphy
Written and Performed by Kelly Beeman, Kathy Betts, Judy Fabjance,
Clay Goodpasture, John Loos, and Brett Mannes
