Ameriville: State of the Union Seen Through Humor, Hip Hop

The acclaimed performance group Universes combines poetic storytelling with the infectious rhythms of jazz, gospel, blues, hip-hop and even flamenco to create an unforgettable evening of song, dance and spoken word. The four talented artists of Ameriville -- made up of three men and one woman from a variety of different backgrounds -- take audiences through an exploration of politics, poverty, race and other contemporary issues in post-Katrina America with humor and heart. A hit at the renowned Humana Festival, the show is now winning raves across the country.

This sounds like a pretty good performance group.  Regular price tickets range from $35-40, but Goldstar is offering discounted tickets for $10-15.  To purchase tickets in advance, please go to http://www.goldstar.com/events/chicago-il/a...

    If anyone would like to have a light snack after the show, we can all meet at John Barleycorn--which is about a one and a half blocks from Victory Gardens Theater. The address to John Barleycorn is 658 W. Belden Ave.
