Another Average
Day
Tales of an Urban Adventurer
Three Algrenesque seriocomic monologues of urban adventure,
"Another Average Day" is a look into 1970's Chicago
and its neighborhoods against a backdrop of racial tension.
"My Morning Walk" is a light, bright tour of Chinatown,
Bridgeport, and the near south side. The funny and terrifying
true experiences of a nineteen-year-old cabdriver, growing
up rapidly to the ways of the world, forms "I, Cabdriver."
"The Aquarium Factory" is a tour of a storefront
near sweatshop and a look at the cast of characters who
worked there.
"Another Average Day" was written and is performed
by Rob Bronstein, a twelve-year company member of the Second
City in Chicago (January 1982 - November 1993). At The Second
City Rob contributed to the creation of fourteen original
revues, all critically acclaimed. He also performed in "Activities
of Daily Living" at the Blue Rider Theater in Chicago
for the Remains Ensemble, and has performed his other one-person
show, "True Stories From the ER That You’re Never
Gonna See on Television!" for two runs in New York
City.
Mary McAuliffe, a member of Chicago’s nationally famous
Remains Ensemble for over fifteen years, directed "Another
Average Day". Ms. McAuliffe’s credits also include
directing the highly acclaimed "What Cops Know,"
"Girls! Girls! Girls! Live On Stage... Totally Rude,"
and "Portrait of a Shiksa" at Live Bait Theater
in Chicago. |
