CHICAGO – On Sept. 12, 2007, Chemically Imbalanced Comedy executive producer and founder Angie McMahon (773-865-7731) signed a lease for a new theatre at 1420 W. Irving Park Rd. in Chicago.

The space was formerly the home of The Artistic Home. Coming Nov. 1, the new theatre will be known as the Chemically Imbalanced Theater. Interestingly, Chemically Imbalanced Comedy is supported by a grant from Google.

The group describes itself as “an umbrella organization made up of artists from the Chicago area and beyond [that’s] dedicated to recruiting, arranging and providing alternative performance spaces and opportunities for artists”.

In other news today, the Serbian Film Festival runs from Sept. 13 to 16 in Chicago. The price of admission is $10. Metromix says this about the festival:

The inaugural fest features nearly 15 feature films, documentaries and shorts from the European country including 2006 Academy Award nominee “Tomorrow Morning”.

Also, the LaSalle Bank Classic Film Series starts up on Sept. 15 and runs on various dates through Dec. 29. Classic films, shorts, cartoons and features will be screened for a few bucks a pop.
