Hans Fleischmann first directed this production at Mary-Arrchie Theatre company in Chicago.  With great critical and popular interest, the show extended several times, and was remounted in 2013 at Theatre Wit with the original cast.  In 2015, The Hypocrites restaged the production with Fleischmann.  This gallery is a collection of those productions.

JEFF AWARD NOMINEE - BEST LIGHTING DESIGN, MIDSIZE - 2016

​

         "I've been climbing the stairs past the convenience store to the Mary-Arrchie Theatre for nearly 20 years; I've never seen a show there quite like this one. If the best-of-the-year lists were not already signed, sealed and delivered, I'd be ripping them into shreds...  Matthew Gawryk lights this whole immersive world with great beauty and care..." - Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune, 4 Stars (December 2011)

​

"Grant Sabin’s complex assemblage of a set, artfully lit by Matthew Gawryk, reveals itself in little flickers, degree by degree." - Nancy Malitz, Chicago on the Aisle, 2013

​

" I loved this show for its imaginative approach... When Lighting Designer Matthew Gawryk flips the switch at pivotal times, the stage glistens.  Within Tom’s gritty reality is this beautiful flicker into his dark past.  The imagery is magical." - Katy Walsh, Chicago Now, 2013
