DrunkMonkey 0 #1 January 20, 2005 What is playing in Chicago in the Theater (i.e. plays)? The girlfriend will be visiting for spring break in March, after I have moved home from the USAF. We are both Theater lovers. What's showing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamesNahikian 0 #4 January 20, 2005 Begin here: http://www.chicagoplays.com/. We saw I Am My Own Wife starring Jefferson Mays last Friday - I highly recommend it. Also consider Lyric Opera and Second City (I happen to live next door). D. James Nahikian CHICAGO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamesNahikian 0 #6 January 20, 2005 QuoteI work near Second City (Chicago Historical Society)! Wave at the fat guys who plod past your office on their way through the park in the morning - one of them is me. Dreamsville and some other SDC jumpers live nearby too, and we connect at Mario's, Emilio's Tapas Bar and other local haunts. We all should go out sometime. D.

craichead 0 #7 January 20, 2005 Wow, I had no idea Harry lived around here...cool! Methinks Andy and I need to get out to SDC more--we've just been too lazy to drive that far. _Pm P.S. - DrunkMonkey, I'm sorry we hijacked your thread about theater in Chicago!

James Nahikian CHICAGO You can always check out www.BroadwayInChicago.com I just saw "From Fear to Eternity" on the Second City Etc stage last week - it's one of the best shows/troops I have seen there in some time. The best part about it is that it's half the price of the main stage (it cost me $36 for two tickets)_________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
