Performed against a background of grainy 16mm films, Nelson Algren: For Keeps and a Single Day invites you to meet Algren, the people he chronicled, and shuffle the streets of Chicago in his shoes. Jeff-nominated Ensemble Member Thomas J. Cox plays role of Algren, giving us an incomparable window into Algren's rhythmic, comic, sensual vision of his beloved city.
