- Bang_Bang_Spontaneous_Theatre abstract "Bang Bang Spontaneous Theatre, or Bang Bang, was an improvisational theater company which attempted to meld the two leading schools of Chicago theater: the \"Rock and Roll\" style of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company and The Second City's improvisational style.At one time or another, Bang Bang included: Tim Beamish Tara Chocol Paul Dillon Bob Fisher Kirsten Fitzgerald Reggie Hayes Burt Heyman Greg Kotis Tracy Letts Soren McCarthy Steve Mitchel Mechelle Moe (Boxed Set) Amy Pietz Matt Robison Andrew Rothenberg Kevin Scott Michael Shannon Ed Smaron Justin Spafford Wesley Walker Kate Walsh Holly Wantuch Eric Winzenreid Joan (last name not known) Noam (last name not known)Bang Bang held a regular weekly show (Wednesdays) at the No Exit Cafe in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood that began at 10:30PM until midnight and ran for about 10 years (approximately 1990 - 2000). A $3 donation was usually collected. After the performance, members would often meet at the Heartland Cafe to celebrate with a beer or shots and hang out with fans from the audience. Other runs were held at The Famous Door Theater, The Remains Theater, A Red Orchid Theater, and Victory Gardens Theater. Bang Bang appeared once on Chicago's CAN-TV.Founding member Kevin Scott went on to New York and helped create Burn Manhattan and later, Centralia, two highly influential improvisational ensembles which expanded on the developments of Bang Bang. Kevin Scott's departure from the group in the mid 1990s was witnessed as a truly hilarious send off held at Martyr's on Lincoln avenue where, during short intermissions, auctions were held with an array of absurd and odd objects. During one auction, actor Letts (as auctioneer) in comedic form, goaded with \"It's a squirrel...ON A GIANT NUT!\" that had the audience in hysterics. The money raised from the auction was to help Kevin Scott on his journey to New York.Towards the end of Bang Bang's run at No Exit Cafe, some of the core members (Dillon, Letts, Shannon, Rothenberg) were finding a good measure of success in television and movie roles and occasionally dropped in for a performance. Sensing that Bang Bang was losing steam, member Tim Beamish subsequently organized a last hurrah of sorts at the Victory Gardens theater entitled \"Boxed Set\". Boxed Set culminated some of the more memorable skits performed at No Exit as a sort of \"Best of Bang Bang\". Critical praise came from The Chicago Tribune, American Theater magazine, The Reader, The Denver Post and others.The No Exit Cafe's last owners, Sue and Brian Kozin, eventually retired and, it is believed, sold No Exit Cafe to the Heartland Cafe owners in the late 1990s. After this, many long-time fans of Bang Bang and other regulars stopped coming as they weren't fond of the Heartland folks. Although there had been a slow decline in people coming to watch Bang Bang towards the end of the 1990s, the sale of the No Exit Cafe was more or less a last nail in the coffin of Bang Bang. As business declined further, the No Exit Cafe briefly shuttered and remained closed for a period of time until being updated and reopened some time in late 2000 or early 2001 leaving Bang Bang with no place to call home.".
