Each of the next six performances of 185 Buddhas Walk into a Bar… has a different opening act.  I am very delighted to announce that the very talented Dave Stinton will be opening for me this Thursday!  Dave is a wonderful writer, storyteller, performer, and comedian.

Dave Stinton has been writing and performing in Chicago for 15 years. As a comedian, he’s opened for Dan Telfer, Adam Burke, and Kelsie Huff, and he was thrilled to participate in the Chicago Just For Laughs festival in 2012. Much love to Jen!

The art of improvisation creates stories from thin air, making the unseen seen. For Amanda Rountree, this is not just an artform, but a way of life — one that includes unexpected twists and turns — leading, if not to mastery, to enlightenment.  Written and performed by Amanda Rountree, and directed by Jen Ellison, this show follows the artist on her path with all of the funny and touching moments along the way.
