Huggable Riot's EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE CHECK Begins 8/19 at Gorilla Tango
By: Tyler Peterson
Huggable Riot has announced the third in a series of summer sketch revues when Emotional Baggage Check opens on August 19, 2015 at Gorilla Tango Theater in Chicago's Bucktown neighborhood.
A comedic journey through the passages of our existence, Emotional Baggage Check is comprised of original work from cast members Mark Fleming, Briané Goodrum, Matt Mahaffey, Sarah Sterling, George Tingen, and Morgan Van Dyne. From the fears of young adulthood to Chicago conspiracy theories to taking the plunge (both metaphorically and physically), this revue is your boarding pass to the less-than-friendly skies of life. Fasten your seat belts, there will be some turbulence. "This is the third sketch show in our summer series and definitely the wildest," says Huggable Riot Founder and Producer Amy Anderson. "More than any other cast, this one is a wonderful blend of very different writers and performers. They have been up for anything and the result is an incredible hour of wild sketch." Emotional Baggage Check will run every Wednesday for four weeks beginning August 19 at Gorilla Tango, located at 1919 N. Milwaukee, just off the Western Blue Line stop. Each show is approximately one hour. Tickets can be purchased in advance online for $10 or $12 at the door.
