Hubris Productions becomes a resident at
the Greenhouse Theater Center and announces its 2010 season.
CHICAGO, IL.
Hubris Productions will begin its fourth season (2010) as
a resident company at the Greenhouse Theater Center. The
Greenhouse Theater Center at 2257 N. Lincoln Ave. is home to
some of Chicago's hottest Off-Loop theater companies - a diverse
mix of nationally acclaimed, award winning ensembles. According
to Artistic Director Jacob Christopher Green, “This residency
presents a great opportunity for us, and illustrates how we have
developed over the past few years. We look forward to presenting
to our established and new audience members our ever-evolving
capabilities and passion for theatre.
And it’s nice to have a home.”
The 2010 season opens with the Chicago Premiere of Messiah on the Frigidaire by John Culbertson, running March 11- April 17. The season continues with Steel Magnolias by Robert Harling, running June 24- July 31. Closing out the season during the holidays will be Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune by Terrence McNally, running November 18- December 31.
In keeping with its mission and values, Hubris Productions will continue to make charitable contributions from each show to other progressive non-profits. Two organizations have been selected to receive donations in the upcoming season with one TBA. For Messiah on the Frigidaire, Hubris Productions will make a donation to the Lakeview Pantry. For Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune, a contribution will be made to UNICEF as Haiti will still be in need at the end of the year. The company makes a donation directly from the proceeds of each production, but also invites audiences to join in and contribute as well.
Hubris
Productions provides entertainment, inspiration, education and
the promotion of charitable giving. This is done through a
harmonious correlation of ensemble artistic works, our community
and relevant charitable causes.
