Hypocrites, Plagiarists, Bruised Oranges, and Nonstop Theatre
In a couple weeks, the Mary-Arrchie Theatre Co. will stage it's 20th annual free-spirited "performance mashup" known as the Abbie Hoffman Died for Our Sins Theatre Festival. Beginning Friday, August 22, at 2 p.m. and ending late on Sunday, August 24 (or, let's be honest, Monday morning), this action-packed, pleasantly absurd theatre extravaganza pays tribute to the spirit of Woodstock. No, not this Woodstock. This Woodstock.
This year's lineup features more than 30 theatre companies and performers, including Mary-Arrchie, A Red Orchid Theatre, The Hypocrites, The Plagiarists, The Telepaths, Speaking Ring Theatre, Bruised Orange Theatre, and many more. The fest takes place at the Angel Island Theatre (kind of like the Yasgur's Farm of East Lakeview). Tickets range from $10-$20 and can be purchased on Ticketweb.
