That’s Weird, Grandma on Tour
PlayMakers Laboratory Performs All Over Town!
In addition to our weekly performances at the Neo-Futurists Theater in Andersonville, PlayMakers Laboratory performs in various locations throughout the Chicagoland area. If you are interested in bringing us to your school, park, community center, or other venue, we’d love to chat!
This summer we were thrilled to partner with the Chicago Park District again for Night out in the Parks 2019 in the Year of Chicago Theatre! We offered FIVE performances of That’s Weird, Grandma in parks across Chicago. All park shows were FREE to the public, so be sure to check us out next summer at NOITP!
