Jackalope's EXIT STRATEGY Runs Through Aug 29

Jackalope's hit production of Ike Holter's Exit Strategy, running through August 29, 2014 at Broadway Armory Park, 5917 N Broadway, must close August 29. Only 16 performances remain, and tickets ($15-30) are available via www.jackalopetheatre.org.

EXIT STRATEGY is written by Ike Holter, recently named Chicago Magazine's Best Emerging Playwright, and directed by founding Jackalope company member Gus Menary.

From the acclaimed writer of Hit the Wall and Loom, comes the story of a Chicago public high school slated for closure at the end of the year. The impending shut-down causes tensions in the school's already volcanic neighborhood to rise to the breaking point, but a small group of teachers launch a last minute battle to save the school. Over the course of the year, they put their careers, their future and their safety in the hands of a fast talking administrator who comes on strong: but might actually have no clue what he's doing.

The production team for EXIT STRATEGY includes: John Holt (scenic design), Company Member Claire Sangster (lighting design), Delia Ridenour (costume design), Thomas Dixon (sound design), Mel Gill (props design), Jen Dorman (graphic design), Joshua Altman (dramaturgy), Ian Olsen (technical director), Ryan Bourque (fight choreography), Mikayla Pasquale (production stage manager), Company Member Elana Boulos (casting director), and Artistic Director AJ Ware (producer).
