Review: MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL at Goodman Theatre
by Rachel Weinberg - July 09, 2024
MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL is a sprawling, messy musical that weaves together the threads of several characters in 1980s Savannah, Georgia.

Review: AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' at Drury Lane Theatre Oakbrook Terrace
by Tina St. Angelo Wetzel - July 03, 2024
That is one of the songs written by Thomas Wright “Fats” Waller. Ain’t Misbehavin’, the musical review of his music, is the current production at Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook Terrace.

In LITTLE BEAR RIDGE ROAD, Samuel D. Hunter has accomplished a rare and magical feat: He’s given us a play that’s mundane and profound at the same time. With Joe Mantello directing, Steppenwolf’s ensemble of Laurie Metcalf, Micah Stock, John Drea, and Meighan Gerachis make the play yet more fascinat...
Review: The Second City's 112th Mainstage Revue
by Rachel Weinberg - June 14, 2024
The Second City’s 112th Mainstage Revue, THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETOURS, promises “weird, sexy comedy” in its opening moments. This ensemble definitely hits on the weird and occasionally hits on the funny. I think this revue, while not always consistently funny, gave this ensemble some real moments to ...
Review: THE KITE RUNNER Presented By Broadway In Chicago
by Zac Thriffiley - June 14, 2024
Fans of the novel may be enthralled at seeing the characters and events of THE KITE RUNNER brought to life before their eyes, largely through moving performances and clever stagecraft. But this dramatization feels unsatisfying, an adaptation that ultimately fails to convince audiences that it is nec...
