Mad City Chickens Screens Tonight in Monona, Wisconsin!
The Mad City Chickens documentary screens at 6:30 pm tonight March 10th at the Green Tuesdays Films and Lectures Series in Monona, Wisconsin.

News of the screening is also getting some notice in the blogosphere by Monona Doug and Thomas over at UrbanChickens.net
