THAT’S WEIRD, GRANDMA

Barrel of Monkeys (BOM) presents the return of “That’s Weird, Grandma,” new installments (with some new cast members) of the critically acclaimed assortment of scenes and songs adapted by the ensemble from Chicago public school students. This NEW selection of student-created and adult-produced theatrical sketches continues the successful run begun in April 2001, and includes titles such as “Dear Jacob, This is your desk, here are things I do not like about my life, ” “Que Sean Mejores los Almuerzos en la Escuela” (about how food should be better in the cafeteria) and “George Bush, Bill Clinton and a Monkey.” After teaching creative writing in the CPS system, BOM’s ensemble of actors, comedians, musicians and playwrights selects and adapts some of the thousands of stories generated by children for stage presentation. The result has been an audience favorite – a show that is ‘safe’ for all ages (6+ recommended), yet very much appreciated by an adult audience. “That’s Weird, Grandma” (named after one of the original sketches) changes each week according to audience votes (switching 2-3 sketches in and out each performance), and each show runs about one hour.

STAFF: Halena Kays (Co-Founder and Artistic Director), Kristie Koehler (Executive Director) and Erica Rosenfeld (Co-Founder and Development Director).

CAST: Roger Ainslie, Tom Arvetis, Lisa Barker, Molly Brennan, Nick Caruso, Lacy Coil, Anthony Coviser, Laura Grey, Sarah Goeden, Luke Hatton, Gretchen Helmreich, Jennifer Johnson, Halena Kays, Oona Kersey, Kristie Koehler, Tom Malinowski, Jonathan Mastro, Matthew Miller, Ned Noyes, Sara Ormsby, Geoff Rice, Erica Rosenfeld, Eric Silverberg, Mike Spatafora, Jason Sperling, Kate Staiger, Mike Tutaj, Cesar Torres, Ryan Walters, Rani Waterman, Rachel Wilson and Jaricho Worthy.
