If you have never seen a Mammals Show then let me know! MY DINNER WITH DIVINE is the show for you!

Hello all,


My name is Bob Fisher, I am the artistic director of the Chicago Mammals as well as one of the collaborators on our new play MY DINNER WITH DIVINE(click here for tickets).

MY DINNER WITH DIVINE has been one of the most joyful experiences I've ever been a part of. Getting an opportunity to compose this love letter to the Midnight Movie Mythology I grew up coveting, loving, yearning to be a part of... this has been such a happy and laugh filled experience!

I think you'll love it. If you've never seen a Chicago Mammals show before and you're wondering if this sort of exciting theater is for you, then email me at themammals@gmail.com.

I have a limited number of "first time" tickets that are both seriously discounted and also have a money back guarantee. 

Also, if you are a long time fan who needs a discount for you and your friends, drop me a quick email and we will take care of you! Goto http://divine.brownpapertickets.com to get your spot!

The reason we make theater is because it is fun! Fun to make! Fun to watch! We do it for you!

Help us spread the word! We adore MY DINNER WITH DIVINE We hope you do too!

All the best
Bob Fisher

Meet the Cast - Amy E. Harmon - ALL GIRL FRANKENSTEIN closes Dec 14th!

Amy E. Harmon is dangerously thrilled to be working with the Mammals again, having previously appeared as Ahab in All Girl Moby Dick. She's been playing unbalanced characters in Chicago since 1996, from a kleptomaniac teen in Pendulum’s A Kind Lady to Mercutio in Babes With Blades Theatre Company's Romeo & Juliet. Currently serving as the Babes' Managing Director, Amy is also a charter member of the Sans N. E. Sleep Cooperative, a former Advanced Actor/Combatant with the SAFD, a fledgling djembe/dunun geek, a cat-lady-in-training, and the proud wife of the singularly excellent Jeff Lisse.

The Chicago Mammals are adding 4 more performances to the run of our critically acclaimed production of ALL GIRL FRANKENSTEIN (Friday Dec 6^th, Saturday Dec 7^th, Friday Dec 13^th and Saturday Dec 14^th)

Science and magic upset the natural order, when Man attempts to use the Promethean Flame to control the mechanisms that generate life!

The Chicago Mammals bring their dark, indulgent, salacious style to the classic tale of Frankenstein. After his demanding mother passes from the mortal coil, Victor Frankenstein is driven by his regrets to discover the means of reanimating the dead. When the creature he resurrects attempts by itself to manifest life, resurrection and procreation co-mingle igniting disastrous abominations!

Starring Erin Myers* as VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN and Amy E. Harmon as the CREATURE

Also Starring Liz Chase*, Julie Cowden, Jessamyn Fitzpatrick, Loren Jones, Sarah Koerner*, Whitney LaMora, Erin Orr*, Anna Robinson, Sasha Wolloch with Paige Wood Reilly, Rose Sengenberger

* Denotes Chicago Mammals Company Member

All Girl Frankenstein is the second in a triptych of shows being presented by the Chicago Mammals' All Girl Project. With the ALL GIRL PROJECT, the Mammals are committed to providing unique opportunities for Chicago actresses to play roles that are rarely performed by women. The stories that we picked are 3 classics from the Western Canon with either no or relatively few female characters (ALL GIRL MOBY DICK, ALL GIRL FRANKENSTEIN, ALL GIRL EDGAR ALLAN POE and ALL GIRL HEART OF DARKNESS).

Meet the Cast - Whitney LaMora - ALL GIRL FRANKENSTEIN closes Dec 14th!

Whitney LaMora is thrilled to be a part of her first Mammals production! You may have seen her around town in Wayward Production's RICHARD III, Roundhouse Productions' RESERVOIR DOGS, or various other productions with good people from Blunt Objects, Polarity Ensemble, Jackalope Theatre, Piccolo Theatre and more. She thanks Bob and the rest of the Mammals for giving her a chance to join this wild ride. Dedicated to my husband.
