The Ballad of Little Duck and The Samaritan Syndrome
5026 N. Lincoln Ave Chicago
The Chicago Reader has called Jeremy Menekseoglu "one of the most ambitious, prolific, original and gifted playwrights in Chicago." Now you can get a double helping of Menekseoglu's fierce and inspiring vision with The Ballad of Little Duck (a world premiere) and The Samaritan Syndrome. In The Ballad of Little Duck, a broken man faces his past and his conscience after his baby is taken away and his girlfriend leaves him. The possibilities -- and perils -- of redemption haunt The Samaritan Syndrome as well, as the protagonist arrives at a mental hospital determined to "save" a girl whom he believes can deliver him from his own demons. Catch both plays in one powerful night of cutting-edge drama at the Dream Theatre.
