Ghostlight Ensemble presents the next installment of its live movie readings with Such a Lot of Guns and So Few Brains: A Live Reading of The Big Sleep on Thursday, February 15, 2024.

Join us at 7 p.m. at Black Eagle Club (1938 W Irving Park Rd, Chicago, IL 60613), as we raise our glass of brandy with champagne to this headscratcher of a detective story and try to figure out whodunnit.

The Big Sleep is a 1946 American film noir starring Humphrey Bogart as wisecracking private detective Philip Marlowe and Lauren Bacall as Vivian Rutledge in a story that begins with blackmail and through a series of complicated plot twists leads to multiple murders.

The cast is:

Phillip Marlowe: Christopher Paul Mueller
Vivan Rutledge: Jean E. Mueller-Burr
Eddie Mars: Nick Conrad
Ensemble of Characters: Don Alsafi, David Fry, Michelle Limon, Joe Page and Stacey Tappan

The live reading is directed by Bob Koester.

There is a suggested donation of $5 at the door, which will help Ghostlight fund its upcoming season.
