Mud Life, a world premiere drama by Chicago writing duo G. Riley Mills and Willie Round, drawn from Round’s life experiences as an emerging writer, rapper and producer, opens Collaboraction Theatre’s 2026-27 season, October 21 - November 15.
Round and Mills are the Emmy Award-winning writing team behind Collaboraction’s acclaimed immersive docudrama, Trial in the Delta: The Murder of Emmett Till. Set in North Lawndale, Mud Life is a powerful new play exploring the bonds that hold us together, the forces that keep us stuck, and what we’re willing to risk for the chance at a better life.
Mud Life follows Roc and his cousin Tae, two aspiring hip-hop artists from Chicago’s West Side, struggling to build a future while under the thumb of a manipulative strip-club owner named Littles. When a mysterious outsider offers Roc and Tae a rare opportunity to break free, loyalties fracture, ambitions collide, and they are forced to make choices that will alter the course of their lives forever.

Two cousins. One dream. A way out through hip-hop. Come watch MUD LIFE this weekend 🎤🔥
MUD LIFE takes us to North Lawndale, where Roc and Tae navigate ambition, family, friendship, and the pursuit of something bigger. Written by Willie Round and G. Riley Mills, the Emmy-winning team behind Trial in the Delta, this Chicago-made story brings hip-hop, powerful storytelling, and undeniable energy to the stage.
Come for the show, stay for the experience. Enjoy the lounge, grab a drink at the bar, and join us for a Crucial Chat with the company after the performance.

And I’ll say it again!
WEST SIDE STORIES DESERVE THE BIG STAGE!!!
Went to see MUD LIFE at the three-time Emmy Award-winning @collaboraction Theatre, and WOW! What a phenomenal production!
Written by G. Riley Mills and West Side artist, writer, rapper, and actor Willie Round and directed by @anthony.moseley this world premiere took me on a journey through North Lawndale, grounded in a story so many of us who grew up on Chicago’s West Side know intimately 🌱
The struggle. The hustle. The dreams of making a better day. The complicated relationships between family, friendship, love, loyalty, ambition, and survival. All the things that pull at us as we try to make something of ourselves.
I saw so much of the West Side I know in this story and it left me so INSPIRED!
The entire ensemble was INCREDIBLE! And the set?! Beautifully designed by John Wilson, transforming the theater into a recording studio that felt like a world of its own. The performances, the music, the storytelling, the details! Just brilliant.
And knowing that Mills and Round are the same Emmy-winning writing team behind Trial in the Delta: The Murder of Emmett Till makes this production even more special.
@collaboraction needs ANOTHER EMMY! 🏆😂
I’m so proud of @djladyd , Anthony, Willie, and the entire cast and creative team! Please go see MUD LIFE before it closes November 15. I’m DEFINITELY going back!
AND IN OTHER EXCITING NEWS! 📚🎶
I’m incredibly proud that @collaboraction will also be the next home for a @rapbrary collection and reading room/listening library!
We’re dreaming up a space inside the theater where books, vinyl records, hip-hop, and storytelling can live together. A place to read, listen, discover, reflect, and connect.
There’s something so beautiful about creating a library inside a theater committed to social change. Especially one that recognizes the importance of telling our stories, in our voices, on our terms.
I can’t wait to share the blueprints with you all!
West Side stories. West Side creativity. West Side possibilities. 💜
