ComedyChicago Productions Presents the World Premiere of "Dr. Harlon's Keys to Better Living" at the Royal George Gallery written and starring Wild Chicago's Will Clinger. "Dr. Harlon's Keys to Better Living" features self-help guru/infomercial celebrity Dr. Harlon Stewart, who claims to have the answers to a better way of life, and ten devotees who have chosen to follow his dubious advice. Workshopped in 2008 at the Apollo Studio Theater, "Dr. Harlon" is written and performed by Will Clinger, who portrays all eleven characters in this 70-minute show. It runs Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from November 13-December 13. Tickets are $20.00. Call the box office at 312-988-9000, or go to the Royal George Theatre's website, theroyalgeorgetheatre.com.

In a series of monologues, interspersed with video segments that illuminate those “Keys to Better Living,” the audience is introduced first to Dr. Harlon Stewart, and then to ten people who subscribe to the image-conscious behavior that he's espousing - people like Greg Woodside, a father determined to get the perfect Christmas card picture of his infant son; Irving Cloyd, an elderly booking agent fighting obsolescence; Trey Oliver, a socialite and international traveler; Bobby Velour, a take-no-prisoners nightclub entertainer; and Ken Liederman, a down-on-his-luck mattress salesman.

Will Clinger has been writing for and acting on Chicago stages for over twenty years. His playwriting efforts include co-writing the musicals "Here Come the Famous Brothers" and "Two for the Show," which won an After Dark Award for Best New Work and was nominated for a Jeff Award in the same category. As an actor, Will has appeared with numerous Chicago theaters, most recently in "How I Became an Interesting Person" at Chicago Dramatists and Collaboraction's "The Lurker Radio Hour," winner for Best Play at the 2008 Chicago Sketchbook Festival. He has spent two summers with the Peninsula Players in Door County, Wisconsin and traveled all over the country with the Second City National Touring Company.
