Writers Theatre has extended Tom Stoppard's Leopoldstadt or an additional week, with the production now set to close in August. Simultaneously, the psychological thriller JOB has also been extended at the Glencoe venue.

Review: LEOPOLDSTADT at Writers Theatre

Tom Stoppard’s Leopoldstadt follows multiple generations of an Austrian Jewish family from prosperity to despair — spanning over 50 years from 1899 to 1955. Now in its Chicago-area premiere at Writers Theatre, the late Stoppard’s final play includes a cast of 24 actors and many, many characters. Leopoldstadt (named after the Jewish quarter of Vienna) is a sprawling and ambitious work.

Ghosts are not infrequent in Shakespeare’s work, from the spirits of Hamlet’s father to Banquo in “Macbeth.”  Is that enough of a connection to bring the theatrical creation “Paranormal Activity” to the Shakespeare Theatre Company?

Review: PARANORMAL ACTIVITY at Ahmanson Theatre

Chris Fisher’s illusions are the ace in the hole for this production. It’s astonishing what can be done live on stage these days, but the effects in PARANORMAL ACTIVITY will blow your mind.

Review: PARANORMAL ACTIVITY at Chicago Shakespeare Theater

This new PARANORMAL ACTIVITY play (based on Paramount Pictures’ PARANORMAL ACTIVITY horror films) has terrific stage effects and absolutely creeped me out. Based on the merits of the script alone, there’s not much to recommend in the material. But it leaves plenty of room for creepy effects and terrifying stage surprises — and the inventive and frightful production is definitely the selling point!
