Program Description

Event Details

Dead people — you can’t live with them, and you can’t live without them. Searching for dead people in all the right places, this ”underground” presentation explores hundreds of Illinois cemeteries to find interesting graves and headstones, intriguing lives and deaths, and lots and plots of funny names. It’s an opportunity for mortals to not only whistle past the graveyard, but to pause and enjoy the oddities of life and death while we're still on the right side of history. Warning: grave subject matter. Expiration date: inevitable. Services: pending.
