The concept of Circle Theatre's Full Circle Series is simple: Produce an evening of performance from which all of the proceeds go directly to an organization that is tied to the show's central message.
After a successful 2015 event, the 2016 return of this programming is titled It's a Privilege to Pee: Owning Your Identity and Other Basic Human Rights. Hosted at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Ave., the date will be Monday, July 11, at 7:30 p.m. and will feature a variety of vocalists, led by the renowned trans performer Honey West.
Other performers will include Lili-Anne Brown, Dixie Lynn Cartwright, Sydney Charles, company member Erin Daly, Danielle Davis, Ron King, Michelle Lauto, Donica Lynn, James Nedrud, Jaymes Osborne and Patrick Tierney.
Light food, drinks and entertainment will be provided before and after the show; in addition, a prize raffle will be held to generate money for Chicago House. Tickets are $20 for general admission, $25 for admission plus five raffle tickets, and $30 for admission plus 10 raffle tickets ( $40 value ); visit CircleTheatreChicago.org .
