HOGWASH is an hour long extravaganza of the arts, implementing improvisation, music, storytelling, drama, for an educational afternoon of family theatre. Seasoned actors jump into action at the kooky suggestions of each brilliant audience of 3 - 103 year old narrators, who drive the exciting plot into a world of unknown possibilities. As each weird story is acted out, graphic artists paint props, draw backdrops, and illustrate key set designs to enhance the bizarre reality of every tale. Seattle jazz / funk band The Hamstrings score every scene with an instrumental soundtrack that elevates every exciting moment.



HOGWASH was created in Chicago 2004 by Jason Anfinsen is one of dozens of art projects from Jerk Alert Productions, an independent theatrical collective of actors, writers, directors, musicians, painters responsible for some of the freshest underground theater, books, and films on the planet: Stimulus, Haener Vs. Haener, Pep Rally, Juke All Over Your Face, Stab At Sleep, Popularity Contest & Fun Factory. This run of HOGWASH is directed by Lauren Domino, and co-produced with Wing-It Productions, creators of the wildly entertaining Jet City Improv & Twisted Flicks.
