Review: LA BOHEME at Lyric Opera Of Chicago
by Tina St. Angelo Wetzel - March 16, 2025
What did our critic think of LA BOHEME at Lyric Opera Of Chicago? Giacomo Puccini’s heartbreaking La Boheme is playing for 10 performances at the Lyric. Bring a handkerchief. Director Melanie Bacaling, in her Lyric directorial debut, has given this production an emotional feel which is the heart of ...

Review: FOOL FOR LOVE at Steppenwolf Theatre Company
by Rachel Weinberg - February 12, 2025
FOOL FOR LOVE has peak Steppenwolf energy. I’ve long associated Steppenwolf Theatre Company with gritty, messy, feral family and relationship dramas — Sam Shepard’s one-act fits the bill. It’s also only 65 minutes — that run-time is short, but it’s a logical choice in the TikTok era when attention s...
