In March, Ghostlight Ensemble will present a staged reading of short plays with one thing in common — they’re all set in bars. The setting for this event will be, naturally, a bar. So, join us as at My Buddy’s as we raise a glass to a playwright’s favorite haunt (and setting for plays, apparently — we received over 200 script submission and they’re still rolling in).

Happy Hour features primarily writers from the great Chicago area, but also submissions from Washington, D.C. and Florida. The stories that make up the show include tales of new loves, old loves, connections new and old, grief, joy and craft beer.
