Shattered Globe Theatre Presents HAPPY NOW? Beginning 1/24
Shattered Globe Theatre continues its 2012/13 Season with the dark comedy HAPPY NOW? by Lucinda Coxon, directed by Artistic Director Roger Smart, playing January 24 - March 2, 2013 at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Ave. in Chicago. The production features Shattered Globe Ensemble Members Steve Peebles, Linda Reiter, Drew Schad and Ben Werling and SGT Associate Artist Christina Gorman with Cortney McKenna and Karack Osborn. Tickets for HAPPY NOW? are available at www.shatteredglobe.org. The press performance is Sunday, January 27 at 3 pm.
A chance encounter at a hotel conference is the first link in a chain of events that play upon Kitty's mind as she struggles to balance personal freedom with family life, fidelity and a demanding job. Her husband is more interested in misplaced apostrophes than in their marriage, her parents are looking down the barrel of oblivion and although she toys with the idea of joining a gym, Kitty's running out of time for big changes. HAPPY NOW? dares to ask just that - in this this painfully truthful, darkly comic take on contemporary life and how to survive it.
The production team for HAPPY NOW? includes: Amanda Rozmiarek (Scenic Design, Technical Director), Noël Huntzinger (Costume Design), Richard Norwood (Lighting Design), Melissa Schlesinger (Sound Design), Vivian Knouse (Props Design), Kathy Logelin (Dialect/Voice Coach), Jeffrey Stokes (Stage Manager), Judy Anderson (Production Manager), Lindsay Ricketts (Asst. Production Manager), Kelsey Melvin (Assistant Director) and Rosie Chevalier (Producer).
