Cultivate the next chapter of The Impostors Theatre Company! Join us for a celebratory evening of giving in support of SEASON EIGHT.
For seven seasons, The Impostors Theatre Company has cultivated a mission to stage stories at the crossroads of retrospect and innovation, where the fantastic collides with the everyday. Over those seven seasons, we have produced twenty entirely original works, making our commitment to new material a cornerstone of the ensemble’s vision. In these stories, we examine the narratives we construct and those that emerge unexpectedly; the tension between control and surrender; the ways memory and time reshape identity; and the increasingly blurred boundary between reality and fantasy.
Fascinated by the people who carry our stories when we no longer can—and by the courage it takes to entrust those stories to others—The Impostors can’t wait to dig into the weeds and tend to the ever-growing art of pretend.
For the 2026-2027 season, The Impostors will perform out of our resident home at The Den Theatre. Thematically, this season explores the idea of Impressionism—not simply as an artistic movement, but as a way of understanding how we experience the world. Impressionism is concerned with emotional truth: the feeling an image, memory, or moment evokes rather than an objective record of reality.
What impression do we leave behind? How does the perception of who we are change after we are gone and no longer able to shape it ourselves? How do time, circumstance, and experience transform the way we see others and ourselves?
• What: PERENNIAL— a fundraiser to cultivate Season 8
• When: Saturday, August 29th, 6:30PM (CST)
• Where: The Studio at Skalawag Productions, 320 N Damen Ave Ste D300, Chicago, IL 60612
• Attire: Whatever PERENNIAL means to you—any outfit/piece/style you always come back to!
• What to Bring: Cash/cards/checks for tax deductible donations and raffle entries; your party pants!
Grab a beverage and explore the eclectic loft overlooking the city. Enter to win raffle prizes and secure that highly anticipated sneak peek of the productions ahead. Most importantly, play a vital role in reaching our fundraising goals:
• Tier 1: $13,000 (Sprout)
• Tier 2: $14,000 (Bud)
• Tier 3: $15,000 (Bloom)
These goals are not arbitrarily set. Each number you read above is carefully determined by a number of necessary factors that reflect our priorities. No gift is too small, and every dollar you contribute will plant the seeds towards future seasons and future stories.
Reconvene with us at PERENNIAL. RSVP now and invite your friends! Even if you can’t attend our soirée in person, you can still help us reach our goals. Donate via our GiveButter campaign to help this garden grow! [Link found under “Tickets”]
Thank you for embracing the art of pretend.
Sincerely,
The Impostors
