Commissioned by Schlitz Brewery, The Inconvenience partnered with the Chicago Boxing Club to present a

turn ­of the ­century extravaganza complete with vaudeville acts and a real ­life amateur boxing match.

Curated and produced by Missi Davis with the performance direction of Gus Menary; Mary Williamson and

Davis Haines hosted an array of performances including The Fly Honeys, magic by Brett Schneider, The

Galaxie Dancers, and special guest Stephen DeRosa (best known for his role of Eddie Cantor on Boardwalk

Empire). Angie Tillges’ art direction and Anna Glowacki’s costume design transported guests back in time

while they cheered on the bouts provided by Chicago Boxing Club. Guests were encouraged to dress the

part, and Pokey Lafarge closed out the evening with his signature musical stylings.
