Chicago Kids Spotlight: November ’08

This month, take an adventure with Captain Marbles and his familiar sidekicks, Ballerina and Astronaut, in The Adventures of Captain Marbles and His Acting Squad at the Storefront Theater (November 2-December 14). This family theater show began in the 1960’s, became a continuing series of episodes, and eventually landed at David Mamet’s St. Nicholas Theatre Company where composer Alaric Jans and actor William H. Macy (a St. Nick co-founder) were enlisted as co-authors. Now Jans, Macy, and third co-author David Kvacs have updated the show, which is already set for an Off-Broadway production next year.
