Second City Theatricals and Rob Kolson Creative Productions will present "Playing Dumb with Jill Benjamin" at the Apollo Theatre, 2540 N. Lincoln Ave. Opening night is June 28 at 10:30 p.m., and the show will run on Fridays at 10:30 p.m. through Aug. 30.
Performer/writer and Second City alum Ron West directs this re-mount of "Playing Dumb with Jill Benjamin," which recently completed a sold-out run at Donny's Skybox Studio Theatre in Piper's Alley. The show explores the absurdity that both women and men go through to form relationships. Speed dating, one-night stands, and bachelorette parties - no aspect of the female/male dynamic goes unexplored in "Playing Dumb with Jill Benjamin."
"Playing Dumb with Jill Benjamin" stars Jill Benjamin and Brian Shortall. Benjamin was the co-star of the wildly successful "Pick-ups & Hiccups" with her partner Seth Meyers, who recently joined the cast of "Saturday Night Live" on NBC.
Tickets are available at the Apollo Theatre box office at (773) 935-6100 or at Ticketmaster locations. All tickets are $15. For more information check out www.secondcity.com or www.apollochicago.com.
