City Mice

Coming soon: "City Mice, or Kitty Joyce Goes to the Suburbs"

Can two 30something Chicagoans find happiness, or even the place they're supposed to show up at, in the heart of the suburbs? This spellbinding epic explores such issues as:

Traffic: a survivor's story
Tolls: Why there's never enough nickels
What to Bring: Bottled water, magazines, music, maps...what else is in Anne's tote bag?
Relationships: How to keep from crying when your spouse erroneously takes the turn to the airport instead of home at 11:30 p.m.

SEE our hero and heroine try to determine the difference between Highland Road, Highland Parkway, and Highland Avenue (all in close proximity)
LAUGH as they sample the fare of the suburbs (TGI Fridays, anyone? "Actually, that chicken thing wasn't half bad.")
GASP as they gawk at huge McMansions ("LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT HOUSE!")
CRINGE as they try to cross streets with no sidewalks, dodging oversize SUVs and singing their school fight songs to keep their courage up

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wish you'd never left home.

In theaters soon!

Next summer: "City Mice II: Electric Boogaloo"

They offer bus tours in case you have trouble completing trips on your own. "It's Friday, this must be Park Ridge".
