We look forward to our next steps and we thank our Chicago audiences for the role they have have played in the development of White Noise."

White Noise pulls back the curtain at a major record label where a top-selling producer stirs up an explosive cocktail of shock and spin with a splash of controversy to package talented artists into blockbuster stars. Steadily baited by the lure of mainstream fame and power, two diametrically opposed groups-"White Noise," an irresistible pop band that churns out catchy tunes of coded rhetoric and "Bloodbrothas," the hip-hop-turned-gangsta rap duo-meet at the top of the charts and collide with consequence. Inspired by real life, White Noise is a timely and cautionary tale that challenges conventional notions of free speech, media and the power of pop culture.

White Noise features a book by Matte O'Brien and music and lyrics by Robert Morris, Steven Morris and Joe Shane. White Noise, was originally conceived by Ryan J. Davis, has a story and characters by Joe Drymala. The production features musical direction by Jesse Vargas, set design by Robert Brill, costumes by Paul Tazewell, lights by Jason Lyons, sound by Garth Helm, and multi-media design by Raj Kapoor.

Tickets are available at the Royal George box office, 1641 N. Halsted Street, by phone (312) 988-9000, online through TicketMaster or www.whitenoisemusical.com. Student Rush tickets are available at the Royal George box office for $20. Student tickets must be purchased in-person with a student I.D.
