Autumn has cast its spell on Chicago and the EP Theater is anticipating three dramatic nights of excitement and energy to bring in the season. In case you missed it last time, The Loneliest Monk and Asa Ransom (Brooklyn) will embark on another musical journey together for three nights only October 8, 9, and 10. An incredible set designed by Threadcount and built by Artpentry will surround each act and evoke a time not present. Asa Ransom will keep you dancing with their infectious songs, and The Loneliest Monk shall fill you with dark emotions and beautiful tones. We are fresh from scoring our first play (Brecht’s BAAL) and one critic writes, “The Loneliest Monk provides (a) complex and haunting ambiance.” Don’t miss out!

Welcome to the World of The Monk!

Our latest endeavor marks a path down the theater realm. We will be creating a live original score for BAAL: debuting at the EP Theater for ten nights only from Mid-September-October. Manipulating the sound of the cello and percussive effects, The Loneliest Monk will support this spectacular event by performing live for every performance.

Bertold Brecht’s revolutionary first play is a brutal tour de force of sex, gluttony and unapologetic poetry. The young poet, Baal (Craig Cunningham), alongside friend and young composer, Ekart (Shawn Pfautsch), wreaks havoc in this urban underworld in search of the next couplet, bar fight, woman, or glass of corn brandy to give him a sense of purpose. He consumes everything with his insatiable appetite only to have this world collide with jealousy in the midst of corpses of lovers and friends.

This new production of Brecht’s masterful debut will not only feature The Loneliest Monk, but will display yet another amazing set and costume design by Threadcount’s Christopher Provyn and David Beaupre (Cirque du Soleil, Redmoon, Lookingglass). A splendid time is guaranteed for all.

Check out our schedule for the show dates.

Love.

The Loneliest Monk
