The next Theatre Club get-together takes us to the Steppenwolf Theatre on Wednesday, October 28th for the Theatre in Chicago’s “Highly Recommended” production of:
TOPDOG/UNDERDOG
7:30 pm Steppenwolf Theatre
Brothers Lincoln and Booth, named in jest, are two Black men living in America just trying to get by. Lincoln dresses like his namesake, reenacting his assassination for money and laughs. Booth stays stuck in their apartment, working tirelessly on his three-card hustle. Sibling rivalry and a lifetime of resentment come to a head in this fast-paced and ferocious thrill ride from Suzan-Lori Parks. The deck is stacked with a Tony Award-winning director, a Pulitzer Prize-winning script and a tour-de-force showdown for ensemble members Glenn Davis and Namir Smallwood.
We plan to meet at the Club for dinner about 5:30 and will Uber to the theater for the 7:30 curtain. Details to be confirmed.
Estimated ticket cost per person is approximately $89, depending upon the number of attendees and if we can get a group discount. There will be a slight additional charge for the Uber. Let us know if you’ll be joining the group for dinner at the club. We will make the dinner reservations with the Cliff Dwellers, so no need to do so yourself.
