Benefit for the Prompting Theatre, Take 2!

We’re back at the Cowboy Monkey for 1st Thursday benefit shows. Most of the proceeds from these performances will go to benefit a local charity.

Our January fundraiser for the Prompting Theater got snowed out. We’re doing a take two for the Prompting Theater because they are in serious need of your support! So, come laugh your way into the weekend. 

All proceeds from admission will go to benefit The Prompting Theater as they raise money to travel to Chicago for their performance in the Rhino Theatre Festival on Saturday, February 6th!!   The Prompting Theater is a local CU theater company comprised of adult actors with developmental disabilities.  They demonstrate through their art that a disability doesn't imply an inability. The Prompting Theatre has been working, playing, and performing in Champaign-Urbana for 15 years, and they are VERY excited to take the show on the road to Chicago.

Thursday, February 4 @ The Cowboy Monkey, 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.  Admission $4

Thursday Improv at Indi Go Artist Co-op

Don’t let this intimate gallery setting fool you; we’re having crazy amounts of fun at Indi Go Artist Coop! The audience decides what forms or games we use by tossing a die!
