The Story: In the 1980s-90s, the
Chicago Cubs still haven't had a
winning season, but their fans are
uniquely loyal. In the bleachers at
Wrigley Field, diehard fans root for
their team. The group includes a
rabid cheerleader, a blind man who
follows the game by transistor radio
and does his own play by play, a
bathing beauty, a nerd and various
other bleacher denizens. As the game
proceeds, they bet among themselves
on every conceivable event, go out
for frosty malts or beers, try to
pick up the bathing beauty, and
occasionally watch the game. The
Cubs inevitably blow it in the
ninth, and the villainous Marvin
(who always bets against the Cubs,
figuring he can't lose) cleans up.
The bleacher bums remain undaunted
and plan to return tomorrow to root
for the home team. There is adult
language is this production.
Come see “Bleacher Bums” on the Jack
Coyne Stage at Theatre West.
