Review: BROOKLYN LAUNDRY at Northlight Theatre


by Zac Thriffiley - April 22, 2024

Under the direction of BJ Jones, John Patrick Shanley's newest play boasts a talented cast gifted with good humor and heartfelt emotion, but the uneven script feels as though it shrank in a dryer fed by clichés rather than coins....

Review: GUYS AND DOLLS at Drury Lane Theatre, Oakbrook Terrace

Review: PETER PAN National Tour Presented by Broadway In Chicago


by Zac Thriffiley - March 29, 2024

This newest adaptation of PETER PAN unquestionably corrects injustices that never should have been committed in the first place.

Review: JERSEY BOYS at Mercury Theater Chicago


by Rachel Weinberg - March 29, 2024

Mercury Theater Chicago has staged a “homegrown” production of JERSEY BOYS full of Chicago heart. The bio jukebox musical has graced Chicago tour stages over the years (in fact, I had a chuckle looking back at the review of the first national tour I wrote for my high school newspaper), but this is t...

The first act moves at a brilliant clip with...
