NEW SHOW

THE BRIDES OF GHOST HUNTER RICHARD CROWE: THE DEVIL AT THE WORLD'S FAIR

THE BRIDES OF GHOST HUNTER RICHARD CROWE: THE DEVIL AT THE WORLD'S FAIR EDITION opens Friday March 13 and runs Friday and Saturday nights, 8PM doors open, play starts at 8:15 PM. The show is set to run until Saturday May 9th. No reservations needed, 773- 665- 1110. The Brides re-enact the supernatural stories of Chicago and you'll discover Chicago's gangster past. Admission is $10. FREE PARKING BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET. Each patron will receive

a limited edition H.H. Holmes Commemorative Coin, in this case a wooden nickle!

The first commemorative coins and stamps were introduced at the Chicago 1893 World's Fair, in keeping with that spirit we decided a coin for our patrons many of whom have seen every edition of the play was in order.

The Liar's Club may not be the first place you think of for a play, but the cast utilizes the entire bar as the set. You might just be sitting next to one of the performers. Not a cheesy mystery show or a fake wedding, this is a re-enactment of supernatural stories told from the women's point of view. Even if you don't believe in ghosts, you will know more about Chicago's hidden history than people who have been here their entire lives.

Chicago ghost stories became a way for parts of the city to keep alive the truth of what happened at any given incident - without fear of reprisals or repercussions. After all, they were just telling folklore, right?

Daniel Burnham was rejected by Ivy League schools, did poorly in school, and was considered a loser when he came up with the idea of creating a dazzling White City with the Fair.

H.H. Holmes was a professional. Brilliant in school, he was teaching by the age of 16. He was the best and the brightest of his day, and he was also a homicidal maniac.

In May of 1997, Crowe toured Hong Kong, Macau and South China just before the return of Hong Kong to the PRC.

Among his new discoveries was a block in Chinatown with four hauntings!
