The Wilde-Award winning one-man show, "Fish Dinner" returns to Planet Ant Theatre for this fourth chapter: Fish Dinner 4: Thanksgiving Feast. 

The Second City Detroit alum Quintin Hicks stretches the limits of character performance and improv to introduce you to a world of unique and unforgettable characters. Side-splittingly hysterical, with pockets of poignant tragedy, expect to see some familiar faces and perhaps a few new ones!


"The Quickening"
Written by Nick Boulahanis, Adam Bacigal, & Mike McGettigan
Directed by Mike McGettigan | Stage Managed by Joey Morse

Starring Nick Boulahanis, Adam Bacigal | Introducing Alex Raskov

The Planet Ant Colony Fest winners (improv troupe, Dinner at Eight) present an original one-act comedy, "The Quickening." 

The story follows an underemployed, millennial lifeguard who’s been stuck living in his Dad's basement since graduating college. Max (Boulahanis), encouraged by his best friend (Bacigal), begrudgingly trades in his ideals for his very first corporate job at Quicken Loans. He quickly discovers that Quicken is home to an unsettling array of supernaturally identical coworkers. Max, attempts to not get fired, show his Dad (Raskovich) that he can hold down a “real” job, repair his friendship with his best friend, and retain his sanity.
