Arenafoot Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Merge Runs October 08, 2016 - November 13, 2016 In 1976, Atari was the fastest growing company in the history of the United States, an arcade manufacturer with a workplace fueled by pot smoking, jacuzzi parties and nobody wearing socks. When they have to sell themselves to Warner Bros. to stay afloat, they quickly realize that corporate cash comes with baggage, as they lose a piece of the identity that made them who they were in the first place. And what’s worse… they have to start wearing socks. Merge is the story of a small band of programmers who stand up and fight back against the very company that saved them from bankruptcy, in a battle that threatens to crash an entire industry. Venue The Den Theatre 1333 N Milwaukee Ave 2nd Floor Chicago, IL 60622 The Division Blue Line Stop #9 Ashland Bus #50 Damen Bus Street parking in the vicinity of The Den Theatre is very limited.
