"Embrace the Serpent by Marilyn Quayle and her Sister and Theater Oobleck,"
a satirical look at the presidential race, opens this coming weekend for a
limited "gypsy" run.  This is not a propaganda piece for any one candidate
-- we poke fun at everyone.

Theater Oobleck (which has been together 9 years -- 4 years in Ann Arbor as
Streetlight Theater and 5 years in Chicago) is well-known for its humor,
intelligence, and brave working methods (There is no director, we write our
own scripts and work with each play on a consensus basis.  Instead of one
creative mind molding the play -- you get a whole bunch!)

Performances are at 8:00 pm.  Admission is a donation.  $4 -- more if you
have it -- free if you're broke -- and $2 million if you're Ross Perot.

October 23, 24, 25, 26 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday) at the Curious
Theater Branch, 1900 W. North Avenue, Chicago (northwest corner of Wolcott
and North -- two blocks east of Damen, three blocks away from the Damen el
stop on the O'Hare line).

October 30, 31, (NO SHOW NOVEMBER 1) (Friday and Saturday -- NO SUNDAY
SHOW)
at the Transient Theater, 1222 W. Wilson Avenue, near Truman College.

November 2, Election Eve, (Monday) there will be a show at The Garage, 1843
W. North Ave.  (Just east of The Curious Theater Branch.)

All seating is limited (small theaters -- 30-50 people) and Oobleck is
pretty popular  -- so get there early!
