Inspired by the "ABC's of Death" horror anthology, "26" showcases 26 short sketches, each represented by a different letter of the alphabet. The guest writers have been randomly assigned a letter for which they chose a word that begins with that letter to serve as the title of their sketch. A cast of 8 will perform each sketch that spans the gamut of comedy, drama, surrealism, performance art and absurdism. "26" gives you a night that tackles anything from A to Z.

"26" runs every Friday at 11pm, May 26th through July 14th at the Buena, the Pride Arts Center, located at 4147 N Broadway Ave., Chicago IL. Tickets are $10.00. Tickets can be purchased online at www.prideartschicago.com/26.html or bit.ly/pac26; or by phone at 1-800-737-0984.
