Lights Out Theatre Company (LOTC) is thrilled to invite you to the world premiere of Song for a Future Generation, a science fiction spectacle dance party play by Joe Tracz. Under the direction of Executive Artistic Director, Mary Rose O'Connor Song for a Future Generation opens February 18, 2010 at EP Theater, 1820 S. Halsted, Chicago.  

 

In the future, on a space ship orbiting a star set to explode at any minute, three clones named Marika are throwing a theme party. At the party there's an angst-y psychic, a fighter pilot & his party animal best friend, a time traveler in search of the girl of his dreams, a shape-shifter, a bounty hunter, an escaped convict, and the galaxy's last living rock lobster. In the style of 1980s teen movies (and set to the tune of new-wave dance hits), these characters are all trying to find their match, their identity, and real human connections in a world of technology... all before the star explodes.

 

Performances run Thursday through Saturday, February 18-March 13, at 8pm. Special industry performances are Monday March 1 and March 8 at 8pm. Tickets are $15, or $10 for industry.

 

Now in its second year, Lights Out Theatre Company holds a passion for sharing its work with people who have not typically been considered traditional theatre audiences. With a special focus on engaging young communities, LOTC approaches its work with a playful sense of fun. Song for a Future Generation features:
