Solo Sunday Presents "A Secret in Plain Sight" by Kevin Gladish

If online sales are closed, we'll likely have cash or app (Venmo/Zelle) sales at the door.


Please join us at Chicago's newest performance venue dedicated to solo performance, an intimate 46-seat theater tucked away inside one of the city's legendary Irish pubs. 


A Secret in Plain Sight

What do you do when you discover a long-held family secret that completely alters who you thought you were? Kevin Gladish goes on a journey into the past as he discovers his true identity and grapples with what is true, what is false, and how much any of us can ever know.




Kevin Gladish has been telling stories at such venues as Filet of Solo, You're Being Ridiculous, This Much is True, Story Sessions, Story Club, and The Moth Grand Slam. As an actor, he's worked with Steep Theatre, Griffin, City Lit, Promethian Theatre, and The Artistic Home, among others. Shortly after discovering he was adopted, he began documenting his experiences searching for birth family and coming to terms with his past in a blog called A Story With No Beginning. This show grew out of that blog and that journey.
