"Vep satirizes all that is ridiculous in Gothic horror, Victorian melodrama, classic film, and conventional theatre — and it's also a contender for the funniest American play of the last quarter-century."
Court Theatre is located at 5535 S. Ellis Ave. For tickets and more information, call (773) 753-4472 or visit www.CourtTheatre.org.
