OGGI Chicago Gallery and the Runaways Lab Theater are proud to announce a new partnership! Supported through a generous grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency, The Runaways will workshop a production of Artistic Director Logan Berry's new play NASIM BLEEDS GREEN at OGGI Chicago this winter.

Aligned with the Runaways' commitment to creating unique theatrical experiences that cross-pollinate with many artistic mediums, as well as OGGI's mission to expand collaborations between the arts, this process-oriented workshop aims to create an interactive, public-facing spectacle that involves individuals who wouldn't normally attend live theater. Dramaturgy, research, and costume designs will be installed on the walls of OGGI, transforming the typically insular pre-production process into an ever-evolving conversation with the public. And three rehearsals–one at the beginning, middle, and end of our workshop period–will be open to the public.

Our hope is that this workshop builds bridges between communities, promotes passionate dialogue, and creates an unforgettable theatrical experience for all involved.

OGGI is located in the Heart of Chicago/Pilsen neighborhood (2451 S Oakley Ave) and is ADA compliant.

Workshop is open to the public on:

  • Friday, January 24 @ 6 pm

  • Friday, March 13 @ 6 pm

  • Saturday, March 28 @ 12:30 pm
