SUMMARY:The Beverly Theatre Guild Presents "The Lifespan of a Fact" at the Baer Theatre
DESCRIPTION:The Lifespan of a Fact \nThis sharp media satire explores the boundaries between fact and fiction. \nThe Beverly Theatre Guild (BTG) is thrilled to present this timely exploration of journalistic integrity The Lifespan of a Fact on August 14-16\, 2026. In this fun sparring of creativity versus honesty\, fresh-out-of-Harvard fact checker Jim Fingal faces off against esteemed writer John D’Agata\, whose new essay might be able to revitalize their fading magazine… if only he could prove its veracity. Taut\, gripping and concerned with exactly how much we can stretch the truth in pursuit of a good story\, The Lifespan of a Fact is based off Fingal and D’Agata’s critically-acclaimed nonfiction book of the same title. The show is one act\, 90 minutes long\, with no intermission. \nThe Lifespan of a Fact will be directed by BTG’s Vice President Sheilah O’Grady (Beverly)\, with Assistant Directed by Morgan Ayres (Palos Heights)\, and produced by BTG General Manager Katie Duffy Regalado (Beverly). \nFor this production\, we have an extraordinary team of exclusively Beverly resident all-stars! Our promising young intern\, Jim Fingal\, will be played by Isaiah Pinzino. Our passionate and highly confident writer\, John D’Agata\, will be played by Patrick Allen. And last but not least\, the cautious no- funny-business editor\, Emily Penrose\, will be played by Jane Flynn-Royko. Ms. Flynn-Royko was last seen with BTG as Mrs. Peacock in our winter play Clue and has since become a member of the guild. \nConsider finishing out your summer and celebrating Back-to-School time with BTG! We are Chicago’s longest-running community theatre company. This “store-front theatre” style smaller-scale production will be in the gallery of the  Fine Arts Building of Morgan Park Academy\, located at 2153 West 111th Street. Information on BTG may be found at beverlytheatreguild.org. \nCONTENT WARNING: THE SHOW DISCUSSES SUICIDE AND OTHER ADULT THEMES AND CONTAINS STRONG ADULT LANGUAGE \n  \n  \nAccessibility: ASL Interpretation \nWebsite: https://beverlytheatreguild.org/btg-tickets/

SUMMARY:Archiving Disability: Preserving\, Recovering\, and Centering Disability Art & Culture - Hybrid Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an artist-led conversation around disability\, art\, and the archive with Bri Noonan\, Reveca Torres\, and Tempestt Hazel. Working in different ways to engage with\, investigate\, and create archives\, these three artists will discuss the issues and opportunities they encounter in their practices. We’ll focus especially on what it means to engage with archives when one’s community has been historically harmed or omitted from historical records\, how we center crip/disabled ways of collecting\, creating\, and preserving knowledge\, and how artists play an important role in these processes. \nHybrid Event: Virtual via Zoom and in-person at Experimental Station \n  \nAccessibility: ASL Interpretation\, Open Captioning\, Wheelchair Accessible \nWebsite: https://highconceptlabs.org/events/archiving-disability
