Day 7 E/R. Not to be confused with ER. Although there was also a (short lived) tv series based on this play. It’s the story of an eventful night in a Chicago emergency room. This was a show I did at College of DuPage over the summer between my Junior and Senior years of High School. The summer of 1987. The McAninch Arts Center was smell the fresh paint new, and I believe it was the Buffalo Theatre Ensemble’s first year in residence there. But this show was with CODs summer student program. Can’t even remember how I heard about the audition. I got to play with the “adults”. My part, Eddie the punk rocker, was small, but so was most everyone else’s. But it was a fun show to do. Now that I’m older I regret not going for the full mohawk at the time. Would also have saved me from an unfortunate mullet afterwards. What’s really strange is that 3 years later I would wear almost exactly the same costume in different play at a different school. #retrospective #themcaninchartscenter #collegeofdupage #1987 #eddiethepunkrocker #fauxhawk #leatherstrapsforashirt #theatre #alifeinthetheatre #actorslife #performer (at McAninch Arts Center at College of DuPage) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4ABTmvJ8E1/?igshid=txcbi7enh4c2
