On The Spot Theatre Company presents, This, That, and The Other Thing!, a matinee featuring a delightful trio of one-act gems. 'Only You Can Think That' visits a philosophical cafe where the quirky proprietor is intrigued by a frustrated consultant who turns people's small problems into big ones to put their lives into perspective. 'That is That', a play within a play, takes comedy to hyperbolic proportions as the characters negotiate questions of status, power, and control, on two levels of reality at once. 'Fragments from the Permanent Collection', follows a lonely astronomer who approaches a manuscript typist on the majestic central staircase of the Art Institute of Chicago as the arc of a relationship plays out in miniature in a series of intertwining scenes.
