Inspired by the works and incredible story of dissident artist Lin Bo, playwright Christopher Chen, director Seth Bockley and Sideshow Theatre Company bring a new kind of play to Chicago, blending the mediums of theatre and visual art. Confinement gives way to freedom as layers of perception peel back, with reality itself eventually coming into question in this hilarious and dangerous play. A hallucinatory new experience featuring celebrated visual artists, Caught explores what happens when we blur the dangerous line between story and truth.

The production team for CAUGHT includes: Kurtis Boetcher (scenic designer), Izumi Inaba (costume designer), Claire Chrzan (lighting designer), Chris LaPorte* (sound designer), Gina M. Di Salvo* (dramaturg), Colleen Layton (stage manager) and Aaron Shapiro (production manager). *Denotes Sideshow artistic associate.
