The Dream Play tells the story of Mark, a new actor in Chicago rehearsing for “The Dream Play” by August Strindberg at a local theater. While trying to master the multiple roles he was cast to play, he recollects a day from his past when a chance encounter with a hitchhiker changed the course of his life and his identity.

Struggling to make ends meet, he answers an ad placed on the theater’s message board by a mysterious young woman. This leads him to participate in a private play that will alter his perspective on acting, theater and his own life.

Please note that this play will be performed in Serbian.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, Jack Dimich’s performances of Reči are cancelled. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The music, while coming from the American and European jazz tradition including highly syncopated rhythms, modern jazz harmony, and improvisation, is also influenced by folk music from the Americas and Eastern Europe as well as modern alternative and indie rock bands from all over the world. Ulery’s music has also been described, at times, as cinematic and fanciful. ‘Loom’ is based out of Chicago, IL.

Western instruments and concepts of improvisation are explored and layered over what used to be called Afrobeat; but the term strains to contain the innovations happening in the rhythm section at every show. It also fails to express in fiery-enough terms the imaginative solo work of respected jazz guitarist Paul MacDougall. Liam Smith dependably delivers basslines designed to induce and sustain a state of ecstatic dancing. And there is always inspiration to be drawn from mesmerizing on-stage dancer/choreographer Jennifer Dallas. The horn section strikes with power and uplifts with melody. And above it all, acting as a lightning rod, is the lyric statement of the case for change and consciousness, passionately delivered by electrifying frontman Johan Hultqvist.

Tickets are $15 at the door. Doors open at 9:00 PM.

Every first Friday of the month, come and party with us in The Cave of the Serbian Cultural and Arts Center St. Sava. The doors open at at 10 PM.

Because parking is limited to 25 cars at the Center, we recommend three things:

1. Use the El: the nearest Red and Brown Line stops are located at Belmont Avenue
2. Use the local bus routes: routes 22, 36, 76, 77, 146, and 151 all stop in close proximity to the Center
3. Park at a nearby parking garage: several garages are located near the center; the closest (and most recommended) is Interial Parking at 3115 N. Broadway Ave.

Ulaznica je $15.00. Prodavaće se ćevapčići i još ponešto. Lumpovanje je dozvoljeno. Ne propustite priliku da čujete jednog od retkih preostalih izvođača “prave” muzike, legendarnog Momu.

There’s no cover and there will be half-priced drinks. We hope you can make it!

Due to unforseen circumstances, Friday’s performance of the Fishtank Ensemble is cancelled.

We apologize for the short notice.
