Club Shush! Speak Easy. Laugh Hard is a decade-hopping comedy created by the Yellow Rose Theatre ensemble, set entirely inside one back room in Chicago that has served as a speakeasy, hideout, and refuge across a century of history. As WYRT radio tunes into the club's hidden past, audiences are dropped into different eras filled with outsiders, dreamers, and chosen families who helped shape the space. At key moments, the audience votes on what happens next, with each choice rippling forward to change what is discovered in the present day. The cast includes Sean Frett, Christopher Ratliff, Sophia Vitello, Amy Hunt, Teri Talo, and Schnaude Dorizan, with swings Michael Bolaños, Emma Vaughn, and Jacqui Jaurena.
