Have a Great Summer

Stage 773
1225 W Belmont Ave Chicago

Members of the poetry slam collective Chicago Slam Works House Ensemble delve into the awkwardness of their teen years with Have a Great Summer. This performance poetry piece riffs on that obligatory high school yearbook passage kids scribble at the end of the year and uses it as a springboard for reflecting on the universal hilarity and God-awful embarrassment of adolescence. The ensemble members relive their painfully true histories and wonder aloud if anything has ever really changed since they entered adulthood. It's a relatable, wince-worthy walk down memory lane that gets underway at the Belmont Theater District's Stage 773.
