Columbia College Chicago presents: The Wild Party

Columbia College Chicago presents The Wild Party by John LaChiusa and George C. Wolfe. This Roaring Twenties musical was adapted from the banned 1928 epic poem written by Joseph Moncure March. Two former lovers, Queenie and Burrs, a vaudeville dancer and a vaudeville clown, throw a decadent party with all the right guests. As their tumultuous relationship unravels, the evening spirals into jealously, passion and violence. Sex, sin, and bathtub gin, all add to the mix in this musical that showcases characters living on the fringe in the Jazz-age. This production is directed by Tom Mula. General seating $10 - $14, reduced tickets for students and senior citizens. In studio tickets are $5 - $10 Call 312-369-6126 or visit www.colum.edu/theater Performance Schedule for The Wild Party: Wednesday, February 10, 2010 6:30 p.m. Thursday, February 11, 2010 1:30 p.m. Friday, February 12, 2010 7:30 p.m. Saturday, February 13, 2010 7:00 p.m. Opening Night Sunday, February 14, 2010 2:00 p.m. Wednesday, February 17, 2010 10:30 a.m. Thursday, February 18, 2010 3:30 p.m. Post-show discussion moderated by a Chicago theater professional.
