Tucker Curtis is turning his bio in two days late and wishes to publicly apologize. Otherwise, he is overjoyed to the point of distraction at being once again on the Factory stage and working with all these wonderful people. He likes crossword puzzles, quiet evenings at home drinking, and the Boston Red Sox. Besides the Factory, Tucker has had the honor of working recently with such theaters as the Raven, Free Associates, Thinkprov, the Mammals, and his theatrical home of WNEP. Would it look less pathetic if there was a comma placed between “home” and “drinking” in the third sentence? Tucker didn’t think so either. Audience fun: See how many dead celebrities Tucker can reference over the course of tonight’s play. Correct answer: 18! Thanks for playing. (Miss you, Ole Buddy!)

This Deak guy was previously seen in The Willing Participant, Top Shelf …, Toast of the Town, Factory Match Game ’99 and Surface Dwellers. He also co-wrote Win, Place or Show, Surface Dwellers and Toast of the Town. In addition, he will drop-kick those fuckin’ dogs if they come near him.

Corri loves the Factory. And coffee. In fact, she would like very much to see these two things in a duel for her honor. She also serves as Artistic Director for Will Act For Food, a kickass theater company that feeds Chicago's hungry (go see Absent Friends and bring non-perishable food with you. go now. ok, tomorrow. go). She's worked with lots of other companies and she'll tell you all about them later, as there isn't much time now. She would like to tell the love of her life that he is uberswell and can serve as referee for the aforementioned duel - also that she's thrilled to be his fiancee. She would also like to thank some other people for stuff – thanks.

Sarah is incredibly excited to be making her Factory Theater debut with GI's in Europe! Originally from sunny Miami, Florida, Sarah came to this freezing city to pursue her dreams of doing the acting thing. She graduated from Northwestern University's Theatre Department in 2005 and so far has been enjoying her first-year-out-of-school adventures. Sarah has recently been seen as Princess Marina Amphitrite in Neptune's Holiday Kingdom, a brief stint as a Court Jester at Water Tower Place (she'll tell you all about it!), Eunice in A Streetcar Named Desire, and in her one woman show Time For Take-Off! about her travels circumnavigating the globe! She currently performs every week at the Improv Kitchen and is a professional storyteller and mime (which is a dangerous combination because she could tell you a wild lie or just not say anything at all). Sarah would like to send love and many thanks to Nick, Roach, Heather, the amazingly hilarious cast, the Factory Ensemble Members, Nathan, and her family for all their support. She also promises not to pee on anyone's lawn… well almost anyone's.

Loves getting to play with the Factory. He Really loves this amazing cast and hopes to sit in everyone's lap at least once before its over. A loyal Ensemble member of the Factory, he enjoys being company photographer, and when not in a show, enjoys making babies. He was last seen as Elk in the Utter Brilliance that was Top Shelf here at the Factory. Thank you for coming to the show, and Love to my beautiful Shannon, and my lovely man-child Rowan.

Originally from New Mexico, Colin has lived in Chicago for 11 years doing theatre in acting and technical capacities. The show you’re seeing is Colin’s double joy: his first show in three years and first ever show with the Factory. Previous joys include many shows with the Raven Theatre, The Hypocrites, and Stage Left Theatre, among others. Colin spends his downtime trying to write while chasing misbehaving cats through the house and developing a growing obsession with European football and obscure movie star resumes. Love to Koko. Hope you enjoy the drumbeat.

Scott OKen....what can we say? Not much. He channels Elvis, or maybe he channels Fred Travelena doing Elvis....He has 10 guitars. Why? Because he who has the most guitars wins! He was looking at the inner sleeve for Ozzy Osbourne's second LP Diary of a Madman when he noticed that Randy Rhodes was billed as..All Guitars...OKen wants to play All Guitars! All of them!!!!! Oh yeah, OKen wrote the recent Top Shelf, and co-wrote Surface Dwellers and Toast of the Town with Ernest Deak. He's been in a few Factory Productions, noteably Clean, Here Comes the Regular, Escape From the North Pole, White Trash Wedding and a Funeral, Being at Choice (remount) and a crapload of others. Hehe..... I said crap.....

G.I.'s is Ryan's first attempt at Wizardry with The Factory Theatre. His wizard training began at the age of 14 in Barstow, Ca. in the mop room at the Tastee Freeze. The assistant manager, Carl, taught Ryan some dark magic there in the closet; how to render someone unconcious, how to make things disappear, and how to keep my "stupid mouth shut." Ryan carried these lessons throughout his life and is more than happy to share these experiences with you tonight! Also, Ryan's daughter is also his wife...he feels very fortunate with this set-up.

Ms. Pierro is pleased as punch to be returning to the Factory's stage in this production. You may have seen her in the Willing Participant or at Chief O'Neill's doing shots. She is currently a member of the Factory's Board of Directors and is a litigation attorney during normal business hours. She throws mad props to her peeps for putting up with her schedule. Special love and thanks to Rich and Paul for their support.

Jennifer is happy to be back with the Factory after a brief hiatus. Her last Factory show was Ménage a Trailer, where she played the fish sammich loving, semi-bayou talkin’, and wise drunk, Miss Mae. And yes, she’s drunk again in this one. But this time she’s German! Some other stuff she’s done includes: Brutality of Fact with Eclipse Theater, Being At Choice with Factory Theater, [the] Violent Sex with Visions and Voices Theater and The Cider House Rules, Parts I and II with the, gone but not forgotten, Famous Door Theatre (Jeff Award-Best Supporting Actress.) Currently, she performs children’s theater at Navy Pier where she is also the resident Fight Choreographer. Factory favorites include: Poppin’ and Lockdown, White Trash Wedding And A Funeral, The Vinyl Shop and The Death and Life of Barb Budonovich (PSNBC/New York.) Film and Television credits include: “dot”, “The Jamie Kennedy Experiment” and Jennifer says, “one time, when I was in high school, I went to the Oprah show, and she picked me to stand up and ask a question, and I did, and it was on TV, but I don’t remember what I said, or what the show was about. But I know it happened in the 1980’s and I’m pretty sure that I came off like an idiot. Joe, thank you for loving me”.

Jennifer has a crush on the Factory...there she said it. They make her feel giggly and warm inside and she doesn't care who knows it. She's having a ridiculously good time with this show. She also had a extra good time when she got to be the governess in Leonce Und Lena with the hypocrites and when she played Mona in Blindfaith Theatre's Gorey Stories. She's a company member of Blindfaith so she knows that Gorey Stories is coming back in the fall...you should see it..it rules. She's married to the guy who plays her Dad in this show...isn't that weird? He rules as well.

Manny is a proud member of The Factory ensemble. He also serves as Ensemble Director. He hails from Joliet.

This is the part where I refer to myself in the third person. Anthony is overjoyed to be working with The Factory again. You might remember him as Thurston in Toast of the Town, or Dom in Top Shelf... Any other questions feel free to ask him, he doesn't mind talking. I would love to thank my family, friends, Dawgz, and Stacie for putting up with me. You guys are the best...all of you!
