Labyrinth Arts and Performance Present JOHN AND PAUL GET RICH QUICKER This Month

Labyrinth Arts and Performance announces the World Premier of JOHN AND PAUL: GET RICH QUICKER as part of the line up for its Labyrinth Arts and Performance Collective Showcase this spring.

Also featuring special guests every night including standup KJ Whitehead, drag artist Gigi, and song and dance man Chris Distaste.

The rest of the Labyrinth Arts and Performance Collective Showcase line up include:

DOGS!, a cabaret variety show for dog-lovers, returns to the stage after a three year hiatus. Dogs! highlights dog-themed dance, music, skits and comedy with live music by special guest band Improper Behavior fronted by the vintage jazzy voice of Miss Sharon Waltham. A percentage of the proceeds will benefit rescue dogs.

THE BEAST WOMEN returns to the stage to dazzle the evening with an all female cast featuring belly dance, burlesque, fierce poetry, and song. Produced by Jill Erickson, a long time veteran of the Chicago stage with a 15+ year open run.

LOOSE CHICKS is a collection of courageous women who share experiences that most women keep to themselves. Each show features six exceptional writers and performers who allow themselves to be vulnerable as they share with uncommon honesty.

THE BAND BONUS shows will include rock music from The Push Push celebrating an all-new album, returning performances by The Star System, and The Berteau Trippers, a new folk Americana group based in Chicago.

THE STAR SYSTEM features Violet Star: a writer, singer, musician, producer, goddess incarnated on earth to anchor the divine vibrations of safety, satisfaction, peace, love, creativity, freedom and grace to every being on the earthplane with her every blink breath and heartbeat. Her single 'Star' is available for streaming and purchasing everywhere, and her forthcoming single 'Feed on Me' has an accompanying music video produced by Labyrinth Arts Performance and directed by Paul Brennan.

CAFE CABARET an ART SHOW will stir up spoken word, music, stand up and more from Roberta Miles' Cafe Cabaret. The lobby gallery will show the artwork by the multi-talented host Roberta Miles.
