Chicago Hit Flanagan’s Wake to Play Off-Broadway

Flanagan’s Wake, an interactive theatrical experience that has been running 16 years in Chicago, makes the move to Off-Broadway, beginning an open-ended run on November 13 at the Theatre at Sweet Caroline’s, with an officially opening date set for January 11. Amy Binns-Calvey directs, with musical direction by Bonnie Shadrake.

The piece was collaboratively written by Binns-Calvey and Shadrake, along with Geoff Binns-Calvey, Jimmy Binns, Jack Bronis, Mark Czoske, Phil Lusardi, and Pat Musker. The show invites you to join the villagers of Grapplin, Ireland as they mourn and grieve the passing of one of their own.

The cast includes James Houton, Mary Theresa Archbold, Pay Shay, Brett Waldon, Michael Kevin Baldwin, Mike Connell, and Abigail Gullo. Scenic design is by Joseph Heitman.
