Win Passes to See a Special Advance Screening of GREEN ROOM
Dark Chicago has received a set of passes to a special advance screening of GREEN ROOM on April 5th, followed by a Q&A with writer/director Jeremy Saulnier. Enter to win passes at http://tinyurl.com/GRDarkChicago; winners will be notified via email by Friday, April 1st, at which time the location & time will be disclosed.
Green Room is a brilliantly crafted and wickedly fun horror-thriller starring Patrick Stewart as a diabolical club owner who squares off against an unsuspecting but resilient young punk band.
Down on their luck punk rockers The Ain’t Rights are finishing up a long and unsuccessful tour, and are about to call it quits when they get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club deep in the backwoods of Oregon. What seems merely to be a third-rate gig escalates into something much more sinister when they witness an act of violence backstage that they weren’t meant to see. Now trapped backstage, they must face off against the club’s depraved owner, Darcy Banker (Stewart), a man who will do anything to protect the secrets of his nefarious enterprise. But while Darcy and his henchmen think the band will be easy to get rid of, The Ain’t Rights prove themselves much more cunning and capable than anyone expected, turning the tables on their unsuspecting captors and setting the stage for the ultimate life-or-death showdown.
Intense, emotional, and ingeniously twisted, Green Room is genre filmmaking at its best and most original. Saulnier continues to build his reputation as one of the most exciting and distinctive directors working today, with a movie that’s completely different from his previous, highly acclaimed Blue Ruin, but which is just as risk-taking and even more full of twists. The entire cast deliver first-rate performances, but Patrick Stewart gives a transformative and brilliantly devious turn as Darcy—elegant yet lethal, droll yet terrifying, Stewart makes the film simply unforgettable.
GREEN ROOM opens nationwide April 15, 2016.

A Nightmare on Backstreet at the Public House Theatre
February 8, 2016- Chicago, IL- BOY BAND CROONER KILLS TEENS IN THEIR SLEEP AT THE PUBLIC HOUSE THEATRE
Freddy’s Back! Backstreet’s Back! The hit musical is back and ready to invade your dreams again. Once upon a time, a town burned a baby killer alive. Now, Teddy Crooner is back, and he’s stalking the dreams of heart-sick teenagers with impossibly catchy music and a crew of pop-tastic back-up dancers.
“A Nightmare on Backstreet” hilariously goes where no musical has gone before: it combines the story of the original Nightmare on Elm Street movie with the music of ’90s boy band sensation Backstreet Boys. In this new live action horror parody, the teenagers of Backstreet are all having devilish nightmares about the same guy, Teddy Crooner. And no matter how distracted they get by all the ’90s boy band singing and dancing, just like in Nightmare on Elm Street, if they die in their dreams, they die in real life. A Nightmare on Backstreet combines ’90s nostalgia and classic horror tropes to make a musical parody not to be missed.
“A Nightmare on Backstreet” runs on Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, and again on Saturdays at 10pm through March (3/4-3/26/16), with a preview on Tuesday, March 1st at 8pm. The show is produced by The Public House Theatre and weAreproductions (Maul Santa, Babysitter Massacre ’78: The Musical, and BATES: An 80’s Psycho Musical Parody.) Written by Ricky Glore and directed by Molly Todd Madison. Music Director: Amber Linde. Choreography by Holly Gombita. Starring: Brittny Congleton, Xavier Euzarraga, Ashley Geron, James Grino, Emily Hawkins, Zach Madison, Roy Samra, Aaron Sarka.
Runtime: 75 min.
Tickets: $15
