"When Marti Lyons first brought the script of Title and Deed to the Ensemble for our consideration, we were immediately smitten," comments Artistic Director Andrew White. "Will Eno's writing cuts to the quick of what it means to be human, to be a visitor on this planet. And Michael Patrick Thornton's reading very quickly had us alternately in fits of deep laughter and tears -- I suspect it will have the same impact on and resonance with our audiences as well. So we really have this trifecta of brilliance -- Marti, Will and Michael -- and I'm so thrilled to bring them, along with their amazing design team, to the Lookingglass stage for this journey that's simultaneously hilarious and soulful."

One man's circuitous journey finds universal resonance in this compelling new travelogue by Pulitzer finalist Will Eno (Broadway's The Realistic Joneses). Eno - hailed as the Samuel Beckett of the Jon Stewart generation - crafts a solo work that is both whimsical and lyrical, speaking directly to each of us. Title and Deed is a meditation on life, language, endless hope and our perennial search for home.

Chicago's own Jeff Award winner Michael Patrick Thornton takes center stage, engaging us and posing soul-baring questions in what promises to be a most illuminating dialogue.

Title and Deed features Michael Patrick Thornton. The creative team for Title and Deed includes Ensemble Members Dan Ostling (scenic and lighting design) and Mara Blumenfeld (costume design), Production Affiliate Andre Pluess (sound design), Mieka van der Ploeg (props), John Tovar(movement consultant) and Sara Gammage (stage manager).
