These six artists have been regulars around The Neo-Futurarium for years and the Neos are finally making honest artists out of them. The new Artistic Associates are: Anthony Courser, Clifton Frei, Evan Hanover, Halena Kays, Molly Plunk, and John Szymanski.

LiveWire Chicago Theatre 'gets technical' at VisionFest 5: Johnny 5 Is Alive, ten short plays inspired by technology's influence on society (or what happens when things short circuit). The fifth annual festival will be presented now through August 2, 2013 at INTUIT - The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art, 756 N. Milwaukee Ave. in Chicago. Each play will be staged in a different area of the multi-room gallery, with drinking and mingling encouraged as audiences move from play to play. The press opening is tonight, July 19 at 7:30 pm and 9 pm (marathon performance). Scroll down for a first look at the shows!
