“The End of TV” Theater Review | Manual Cinema | Chicago

Review Summary:

An inspired performance art meets multi-media entertainment extravaganza probably unlike anything you might have seen before.

The combination of live action, shadow puppetry, and video centers around a chance encounter between a meals-on-wheels driver and a QVC home shopping obsessed elderly woman that explores themes of isolation and human connection.

“The End of TV” is playing through August 5, 2018, at the Chopin Theatre, 1543 W. Division, in Chicago. Runs 75 minutes with no intermission. Tickets are available at Manual Cinema.
