LAST CALL: Redmoon Devil's Cabaret CLOSING (21+) #PhotoRecap

      Chi, IL LIVE Shows On Our Radar:

Here at ChiIL Live Shows and ChiIL Mama, we've been raving about The Devil's Cabaret on our sites and all over social media since opening night. Here's our photo and video filled recap. Your last chance to go or go again is TONIGHT. So what are you waiting for?! GO already.












ChiIL Mama's Adventures at 
The Devil's Cabaret (full set):
More of our favorites are embedded below.

Saturday night's special guest is James Kimball of Laughing Hyenas and Jesus Lizard, along with three hours of spectacle, surprise, sin, and complimentary Lagunitas.

We have great memories of over the top Jesus Lizard shows at Metro and Fireside Bowl back in the day! David Yow crowd surfing, wearing nothing but duct tape... 

ChiIL Mama's ChiIL Tips List:

*The early bird gets the seats. Like your dance party/spectacle without SRO for 3 hours? If your mosh pit days left you with thrashed knees, come early and head right in to the back if you want a seat. They will clear everyone out from the side you enter on, so don't stake out a perfect spot there. You will be moved to the far side of the tower.

*It's extra fun to rock a theme.


*Leave your fancy footwear at home. Do we need to spell it out? Giant warehouse + unlimited free Lagunitas + a big dance crowd = spillage. I got doused in beer by a still sober mama on a MNO, before the show even started. She beered my hair, and my whole right side when she was startled by a passing puppeteer! Later in the evening I'm sad to admit, I sloshed a half a beer on my friend's shoes when someone bumped into me.

*No promise from the priests. Want to air your sins in public? Get on over to the confessional. Just know there's no confidentiality clause and if you've got a good story to confess it just may be shouted to the masses. 


*Tip well. 


             *
 Complimentary Lagunitas bar until midnight *    

* A 30' tall Crane Tower * A suspended piano *  
* Aerialists * Fire * Drumming * Punk Rock *  
* A DJ * A Caged Opera Singer *

OPENING: Redmoon Theatre's Devil's Cabaret The Next 3 Fridays (21+) #ChiILPicksList

Chi, IL LIVE Shows On Our Radar:


This one's for the big kids AKA: adults (21+). Opening night is SOLD OUT already so stop slacking and buy your tickets before it's too late! This is going to be EPIC. ChiIL Live Shows will be there... will YOU?!

$25! 7 DEADLY SINS! LAGUNITAS! 
ONLY 24 HOURS UNTIL THE SINNING BEGINS!



ONLY $25 (21+)
redmoon.org  2120 S Jefferson, Chicago


Also: Rumor has it, there's going to be a gay friendly Redmoon "Take Over" Via The Welcoming Committee on April 10th. It's still an open to the public (of all persuasions) show, but you can get your "take over" tickets here and rock a wrist band to find your pack! 

When TWC learned of Red Moon Theater, the 57,000 square-foot warehouse that puts on spectacle performances designed to “engineer wonder” and “promote community and creativity” … we were intrigued. When we found out they regularly bring 1,000 people to these performance events but the LGBT community was missing … we knew we had to take it over.

Experience thrilling spectacle performances celebrating the Devil’s “greatest accomplishments” - The Seven Deadly Sins - while enjoying unlimited tastes from Lagunitas' craft beer bar. A 30’ tall crane tower equipped with multiple stages will be the centerpiece within Redmoon’s massive warehouse and will feature an eclectic mix of performances by aerialists, drummers, a rock-n-roll band, DJ, video wall, unique puppets, and “a special appearance by God.”
Ready to indulge your Lust and Gluttony while celebrating Pride? It’s time to unearth all our red satin and Hot Topic getup that hasn’t seen the sun since ever, because we’re descending into a hellmouth of burlesque. Red Moon’s The Devil's Cabaret is April 10, and we’re taking over each flaming circle.

How do you find TWC in the crowd? First, meet us at the pre-party so you know exactly who you're attending with. But once you check in at Redmoon you’ll be handed a bright green wristband so that you can seek out other TWC members in the crowd that night. Redmoon can hold as many as 1,000 people and often sells out their events, but with our pre-party and wristbands you’ll find your new BFFs in no time.
