Review: Raven Theatre's OCTET at Goodman Theatre
I loved Dave Molloy’s inventive and captivating a cappella musical Octet at Raven Theatre so much that here I am, reviewing it a second time in short succession now that it’s moved to the Goodman’s Owen Theatre. Director Keira Fromm leads an ensemble of eight that shines just as brightly in th…
Review: 52 LOVERS at Chicago Magic Lounge
52 Lovers is a thoroughly entertaining, surprisingly introspective, and profoundly motivational show, complete with a dash of subtle absurdist humor, plenty of magical amazement, and all around simple fun.…
Review: HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at Catalyst Ranch

Review: SUFFS Musical Tour at Broadway In Chicago
All in all, Suffs musical nails the intent and the tremendous hard work of the women involved in the suffrage movement, but it mainly lacks emotion. I wanted Suffs to be more emotionally evocative and less of a history lesson.…
Review: HAMLET at Oak Park Festival Theatre, Oak Park IL
The curtain rises on Oak Park Festival Theatre’s 51st Anniversary Season with the production of William Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy Hamlet. With over 50 years in Austen Gardens, the company presents the play with detail, intelligence, emotion and charm for the audience to enjoy.…
Review: REALITY DETOX: THE IMPROV EXPERIENCE at The Second City e.t.c.
The Second City e.t.c.’s 50th revue Reality Detox promises more improv than ever before. While originally billed as an all-improv piece, ensemble members Kennedy Baldwin, Anna Portnick, Chas Lilly, Max Thomas (appearing in his second e.t.c revue), Annie Sullivan, and Riley Woolen haven’t quite m…
Review: THEATRE EVOLVE'S NATIVE GARDENS at The Den Theatre
