Lauren Grace Thompson and Ian Geers are the (award-winning!) creators/writers/directors of Fawx & Stallion and The Vanishing Act. They have dedicated countless hours pitching reworked versions of literary and theatrical classics in the hopes of entertaining each other and (perhaps) hitting upon that million dollar idea that’ll officially pay off all of their student loans, thus allowing them to finally be able to start their lives as adults. They perform as actors regularly in the city of Chicago and on stage with the fantastic team at the Michigan Shakespeare Festival.
