Performances for November 1st and 2nd in Tremont (reserve your spot)

Micro Theater is back! Join us in Tremont on November 1st and 2nd ! We are planning 22 original and unique performances packed into 16 spaces in the northeast corner of Tremont, between  W. 14th/Starkweather and W. 10th/Literary (don't worry - we have maps and guides!) The spaces? A house with a creepy attic, a front porch, a backyard, a storefront, an apartment, Civilization (coffee shop), Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park Pub (the official bar of Micro Theater!), plus 2 traveling performances to get audience members between spaces.
 

Check out the descriptions of each show below and think about what you’d like to see. For this iteration of Micro Theater, some of our spaces are seriously *micro*, so we are asking audience members to reserve a spot on one of 10 tracks that will guide you between shows throughout the night. Check out the tracks we have available here and reserve your space!
