In October, Ghostlight Ensemble will present the second installment of Happy Hour — a staged reading series made up of short plays with one thing in common, they’re all set in bars. The setting for this event will be, naturally, a bar. So, join us as at My Buddy’s as we raise a glass to that oldest of human inspiration: spirits in a glass.
Happy Hour features a mix of writers from the greater Chicago area, but also submissions from across the Midwest as well as the coasts.
The seven stories that make up the show include tales of new loves, old loves, connections new and old, grief, joy and Bigfoot.
The show takes place at 7 p.m. Tuesday, October 21, 2025 at My Buddy’s (4416 North Clark St., Chicago, IL 60640). Donations accepted at the door.
