✨🚨NEW SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT🚨✨
We are so excited to work with different troupes and shows around the city, and share them with our burly school fam! Our first Chicago a Go-Go features the incredible team at !!! Starting in 2017, BAD TASTE was launched by MO LESS to provide Chicago audiences the chance to see performance art that is irreverent, visceral, and always risk-taking; for Chicago performers, it aimed to provide an ongoing paid opportunity to center challenging work often deemed too unpalatable to the mainstream stage.
​
As it has evolved, it has become a show which consistently reflects and amplifies the marginalized, protests the establishment, and celebrates the freakery in all of us!
​
People come to a BAD TASTE show knowing they'll avert their eyes on terror, stomp their feet in solidarity, laugh their asses off, and likely get some kind of mysterious liquid splashed on their faces.

FEATURING PERFORMERS FROM BAD TASTE AND THE CAB FAM, WE’LL BE BRINGING THE WEIRD AND WONDERFUL TO THE NEWPORT THEATER
!! Mark your calendars for Dec 6th!
