Next Fall at BoHo

Posted on April 24, 2013 by Rachel Natale Posted in Around Town, Theatre | Comments Off

Question life, love, and faith with AstonRep Theatre Company‘s Chicago premiere and month-long run of Next Fall at Heartland Studio’s BoHo Theatre, directed by Derek Bertelsen. For the  PM preview performance on Thursday, April 25, tickets cost only $10!

Written by Geoffrey Nauffts, the play chronicles five years of a gay couple’s unlikely relationship as they deal with differing religious beliefs. Described as unflinchingly honest and beautifully humorous, it follows the events that unfold when a serious accident changes the course of the couple’s life together. Initially produced off-Broadway in 2009, Next Fall has since been seen on a Broadway stage and received two Tony Award nominations, two Drama Desk Award nominations, and an Outer Critics Circle Award nomination.

During the April 25-May 25 production, performances will be held on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8 PM, and Sundays at 2 PM. General admission tickets cost $20, and student and senior tickets are priced at $15. Tickets are available online or by phone at 773.828.9129.
