Pedro was one of the people interviewed by the Chi-Town Daily News for and article about aspiring theatre groups thriving at storefronts. The article was written by Amy Crider.
Here’s the excerpt:
Sketch comedy and improv are also staples of small theater venues. Pedro Castro, of the company Big Dog Eat Child, says Chicago is saturated with sketch groups, so a company has to stand out.
Currently running “The Boozelegger’s Ball” at Gorilla Tango, his group has garnered favorable reviews in the Sun-Times. Castro’s first show, which opened in June, didn’t break even, but establishing a reputation means “more opportunities to perform and more stage time,” says Castro.
The group recently had the chance to perform at a competition at The Laugh Factory in Los Angeles.
The full article, “Aspiring theater groups thrive in cheap digs”, can be found here.
