Doctor Who Meetup Update - August & September 2024
First, thanks to those who join us at Jeni’s in Andersonville! We’re planning some cool stuff over the next few steps, including our first-ever Patreon-exclusive screening.
We’re always looking for people to support us on Patreon to keep our bills current (our Meetup.com bill especially) and for exclusive rewards. We’re planning a September virtual event for our free and paid members. Best thing is Patreon members get a vote on event date and (for paid members only) story selection! If you want to join us (and you can even try before you join us), visit http://www.patreon.com/chicagodoctorwhomeetup and join us today!
Looking for a night of passion, drama, performance, and art while supporting the vote? Join Raks Geek for Raks Inferno Fights F*scism at the Newport Theater on Friday, August 9th at 7:00 pm. We’re not part of the planning, but we think the cause is noble and want to encourage people to attend. For more details and ticket information, please visit Eventbrite.
On Sunday, August 11th at 7:00 pm CST, we’re holding a virtual screening of the classic Doctor Who story Pyramids of Mars. We’ve been hearing about it for some strange reason, and...well, it’s a great story so we’re there. For more details and to RSVP, please visit Facebook or Meetup.
Join us at Eiffel Waffle’s Lincoln Park address (955 West Webster) on Sunday, August 23rd at 1:30 pm for our second ice cream social of the year! Join us for a lively, engaging time, and RSVP via Facebook and Meetup.
Our friends at Down In Front will work their riffing magic in person on the movie Twister. (We hear that it’s about the classic game, but we could be wrong about that). Join them at Mrs. Murphy and Friend’s Irish Bistro (located at 3907 N. Lincoln) on Friday, August 28th, at 8:00 pm. Get more details via Facebook and Meetup.
Finally, save the date of Sunday, September 15th. We’ll have Facebook and Meetup invites before that date, but we’re planning an interesting Big Finish Listening Party. It’s the Fifth Doctor Audio Time in Office, and asks the question, “What if the Fifth Doctor was President of Gallifrey?”
We have quite a bit planned...and we hope you can join us soon! Sign up for our email newsletter (or support us via Patreon) for regular updates!
