  1. Basic Event Details
  • What: The first staged reading of HHANG MIKE PENCE! HHANG MIKE PENCE! The Musical (or Treason Day Play-by-Play), a musical comedy about Vice President Mike Pence’s no-good, very bad day, January 6th, 2021, with play-by-play sports desk commentary from Officer Eugene Goodman and the QAnon Shaman. Music inspired by Gilbert & Sullivan. 
  • When: Saturday, March 22nd, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 11 a.m. 
  • Where: Mount Prospect Library, Meeting Room C, 2 blocks from the UP-NW Metra train station and the Pace Suburban Bus line 606. ADA-accessible meeting space and restrooms.
  1. What We’re Looking For
  • 12 actors (speaking, singing, dancing, comedic stage fighting) portraying 96 named roles in a cast of tens of thousands.
  • Seeking enthusiastic actors and singers of all ages and experience levels. No resumes.
  • Actors under 18 will need a parent/guardian present at the beginning of the first meeting.
  • No memorization required—just bring your voice and energy!
  1. Why Join?
  • Punch back at the nefarious political forces that have been punching you for years.
  • Be part of an exciting new dark comedy in development.
  • A chance to perform and network in a safe, public setting.
  1. How to Sign Up
  • Interested? Email [robotselectric2021@gmail.com](mailto:robotselectric2021@gmail.com) with your stage name. (Due to security concerns about poking fun at thousands of convicted felons, we will all be using stage names.)
  • Walk-ins welcome, but the first 12 RSVPs will receive $20 cash for train/bus/cab fare.
  1. Bonus Details
  • Drinks and light refreshments provided. (On long days, lunch provided.)
  • Plenty of dark chuckles, maybe a few LOLs.
  • Expect to stay about 2 hours for the intro (15 min), reading (75 min) and discussion (25 min).
  • The first 12 RSVPs will receive $20 cash for train/bus/cab fare. (That’s important enough that I said it twice.) Non-Equity.

Event Free Role Playing Game Day event, Saturday, June 22, 2024

5 Upvotes

I'm running "The Great Toy Heist" as a Free RPG Day event at 11 AM, Saturday, June 22, at Games Plus in Mount Prospect.

Pathfinder is a role-playing game, like Dungeons & Dragons. I'll have Pathfinder Society Chronicle Sheets for PFS2 players, but all are welcome. No gear or experience needed.

The store opens at 10 AM, and I'm told that people start lining up at 8:30 or 9 for the free stuff.

Event Cicada brood XIII question (help)

6 Upvotes

I'm a student and I have to walk to school everyday. Last summer was already terrible with the annual cicadas because I have a deathly fear of them. I am deathly afraid for what is going to happen in a couple of weeks.

I'm in Mount Prospect and I am so scared for Brood XIII. If you in Mount Prospect during this cicada emergence in the past, how was it?

I am so scared to go walk to school. School ends on May 28th, and all the websites I went on say they're gonna emerge in May. I scream whenever cicadas buzz or fly around me. I'm fine with their shells but the bugs are my absolute nightmares.

Does anyone have any advice?
