eta Creative Arts: Tangled
Stories of rampant gun violence in Chicago have unfortunately become a regular occurrence, having long-lasting effects on families, communities, neighborhoods and society at-large. But how, if at all, does it affect funeral and mortuary professionals--the eventual recipients of the victims of the violence?
This concept is explored in Nicole Anderson-Cobb's Tangled, a 'dramedy' about a family of African-American female funeral directors and their take on the problem of guns and violence from both a personal and business perspective.
Tangled runs Thursdays through Sundays through May 19 at the eta Creative Arts, 7558 S. South Chicago; show times vary. Tickets are $15-$30 and are on sale at the box office. For more information, call 773-752-3955 or visit the theater's website.
