FAILURE: A LOVE STORY
DIRECTED BY LINDSEY BRACKETT AND JEREMY BISHOP
By the end of 1928, all three Fail sisters will be dead—expiring in reverse order, youngest to oldest, from a blunt object to the head, disappearance, and finally consumption. Nelly, Jenny June, and Gerty live out their lives above the family clock repair shop near the Chicago River before their time unexpectedly runs out. Failure: A Love Story is a magical, musical fable where, in the end, the power of love is far greater than any individual's successes or failures.

​
Please arrive early. The theater is open one hour before showtime, and the house opens 30 minutes before showtime. Our shows are usually sold out with a waiting list, so if you have not checked in with the box office 15 minutes before the curtain opens, we may give your seat to someone on the waiting list. If tardiness is unavoidable, please call the box office at (706) 839-1315 so that we can ensure that your seat is reserved for you. If you find you are unable to use your ticket, please let us know in advance so that we can seat other patrons. Out of respect for the other patrons and the actors onstage, patrons arriving late (after the show has started) will be seated during the next scene change.
