Chicago Reader calls The Bailout Show "Fanciful, convulsive, and imaginative"


The Chicago Reader reviewed opening night of The Bailout Show.
"Think Tank's premise begets some of the most bizarre, prop-heavy, high-concept comedy around."
Come see Think Tank attempt, and "fail so spectacularly" to perform a show under the strict regulation of the federal government.

All New Show Opens Saturday!


On the verge of bankruptcy, the show is in jeopardy of being called off when news of a bailout package for Think Tank Comedy arrives. This allows the show to go on, but under strict government regulation. What ensues is a sketch comedy show-within-a-show in which "federal guidelines" force the ensemble to plug government-sponsored services, censor material and complete a list of unreasonable tasks under the watchful eyes and ears of their specially assigned Comedy Czar.

Saturdays at Midnight @Donny's Skybox.

Drinks more than likely to follow at Old Town Ale House (on the Bailout package, of course)
