Steppenwolf Theatre's 50th Anniversary Season continues with Peter Shaffer's Amadeus, extended again by popular demand. In its four-star review, The Daily Herald called it "absolutely magnificent". "A muscular and moving portrait of genius and jealousy," said the Chicago Reader. Directed by Robert Falls in his Steppenwolf debut, Amadeus is the ultimate ode to ambition and musical genius, a brilliant requiem for a villain in history—but a hero in his own story. Now performing in Steppenwolf's Ensemble Theater through January 25.
