The Conspirators are a (newfangled) theater & performance collective in Chicago dedicated to provoking thought and action through dynamic, immediate theater art.

EXTENDED THROUGH DECEMBER 7!

The Conspirators’ present

DUCK SOUP

adapted for the stage by Sid Feldman from the original Marx Bros. screenplay by Harry Ruby & Burt Kalmar
directed by Wm. Bullion

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before—an influential billionaire installs a crackpot president who hires incompetents into his cabinet and starts a war out of complete vanity. Ring a bell? The Conspirators lovingly dismantle the Marx Bros. classic film in our own inimitable style.
