Performances are underway for Revolution(s), the all-new punk/metal/hip-hop musical by Tom Morello and Zayd Ayers Dohrn, at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago. Read the reviews below!

The all-new punk/metal/hip-hop musical Revolution(s)—created by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Tom Morello and Chicago’s Zayd Ayers Dohrn—has added six performances in a second extension in The Goodman's 350-seat flexible Owen Theatre.

REVOLUTION(S) is truly unlike any other show I’ve seen at the Goodman. While I think the material still has some rough edges, that’s fitting of the subject matter. The themes introduced here aren’t neat and tidy, so the material shouldn’t be, either. This musical has a pulsing, urgent energy that is extremely well-matched by Tom Morello’s music and lyrics. 

The all-new punk/metal/hip-hop musical Revolution(s)—created by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Tom Morello and Chicago’s Zayd Ayers Dohrn —opens to a full house tonight in the 350-seat flexible Owen Theatre and has added eight performances. Learn more!
