Watch A Once In A Lifetime Performance
Date: Friday, August 29
Baby Wants Candy is performing for the fifth year in a row this summer at the Chicago Apollo Theater. Each show starts off with the cast asking the audience for a musical that has never been performed before and the first suggestion they hear becomes the show. From there, the crowd is treated to a 60 minute improvised production that is literally once in a life-time. The show starts at 10:30 p.m. on the Mainstage at the Apollo and tickets cost $15.
