Review: BEAUTIFUL THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL at Drury Lane Theatre Oakbrook Terrace, IL


by Tina St. Angelo Wetzel - February 14, 2025

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...

Review: JAJA’S AFRICAN HAIR BRAIDING at Chicago Shakespeare Theater

Review: SHUCKED National Tour Presented by Broadway In Chicago


by Rachel Weinberg - January 09, 2025

SHUCKED is a corny musical...in the best way possible. Book writer Robert Horn and composer team Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally’s lyrics are chock-full (or should I say husk-full?) of puns, double entendres, and cringey punchlines. I was grinning ear-to-ear (of corn). SHUCKED is joyful, creative, a...
