WHY

The Undeniable Sound of Right Now was brought forth by our Resident Dramaturg Eric Evans. For this production, BT will be transforming its space into a working bar and music venue - complete with stage and local alcohol vendors. The story of "the times they are a-changing" fits well with our theme for the season: "We are Family." 

WHAT

Taking place in the culturally fluid setting of Chicago in the early 90s, The Undeniable Sound of Right Now explores the generational struggle of adapting amid changing times and changing tastes. The story follows the life of Hank, owner of a legendary rock club that is struggling to stay afloat. When his beloved daughter, Lena, starts dating a rising-star DJ, Hank must contend with the destructive power of the "Next Big Thing."
