Since I couldn't find a gif of a bear drinking beer, here's one of a bear belly-flopping into an above ground swimming pool. But for the purposes of this email try to imagine a bear drinking beer, because right now Ars Nova is offering a free beer with every ticket to Bear Slayer purchased between now and midnight Friday (code: BEERBEAR). For the past two weeks Dan O'Neil, Katie Rose McLaughlin, and I have been revamping our 2015 AntFest production as an Ars Nova project residency. It has been such an amazing experience getting to revisit this hilarious play, and I hope you'll join us on either May 25, 26 or June 1 at 8PM.
