Seanachai Theatre Company Presents THE CHICAGO PREMIERE OF OUR FATHER by M.G. Stephens, Directed by Jeff Christian MONDAYS @ 8pm, March 16th - April 13th

The Artistic Home at 3914 North Clark Street 2008/2009 season consists of three mainstage productions: Look Homeward Angel by Ketti Frings, Modigliani by Dennis McIntyre, and The Latent Heterosexual by Paddy Chayefsky. The Artistic Home Acting Studio will also produce two productions: The Fox by Alan Miller and another production to be announced.

For the second year running, Seanachai teams with the Storefront Theatre to showcase another large cast production, this time set in the North of Ireland. With only a murmur heard of the Troubles that simmer under the surface, McCafferty's 'marvelous, engrossing, ensemble play' smashes the big picture into vivid snapshots of a single day of contemporary Belfast life. Originally presented by London's Royal National Theatre in 2003, this tale of 'lust, loss, hope, anger, grief, tenacity, old age [and] young fury' makes its Midwest premiere under the splendid direction of Scott Cummins.
