We create work that expands the definition of American identity.

Jackalope Theatre is seeking an Assistant Stage Manager to join the World Premiere of Terry Guest’s new play Andy Warhol Presents: The Cocaine Play, performing May 28 – July 6th, 2026.

Synopsis: It’s 1962 in New York City and Andy Warhol (no, not that Andy Warhol) is stuck. He hasn’t finished a painting in years and has no new ideas. When a mysterious actress named Marilyn Monroe (no, not that Marilyn Monroe) stumbles into his life, she sends him down an epic path of madness, murder, betrayal and the desperate pursuit of fame, sex and beauty. Andy Warhol presents: The Cocaine Play is a 100% fake story about 100% real people that asks how far are you willing to go for the chance at superstardom.

All rehearsals and performances take place at Jackalope Theatre in Broadway Armory Park, 5917 N Broadway, Chicago, IL 60660.
