  1. Lyric sets world premiere of new opera based on Ann Patchett novel for 2015-16 season

    Lyric Opera of Chicago has shied away from commissioning any new operas over the last decade, at a time when other major American opera companies such as the Metropolitan Opera, San Francisco Opera, Houston Grand Opera and Los Angeles Opera have actively cultivated new stage works from inception to premiere.

  2. Even a stripped-down 'Heights' still resonates

    THEATER REVIEW: "In the Heights" at the Oriental Theatre ★★½ ... The current setting feels rather more like everybodyheaded for the Legoland version of Washington Heights. But as non-union "re-creations" go, this one is better than most.
    The 2008 Broadway musical "In the Heights," the story of a mostly Latino community struggling to both move up and stay together, is now in its waning days as a touring attraction. Since the show last was in Chicago — in late 2009 — the...

  3. Trying on 'Love, Loss' for size at the Broadway Playhouse

    When you look back on pivotal life events — say, your marriage or misspent youth — you often find those memories come back through sensorial peripherals. You might remember the smell of a food served at a funeral, the tap of a kid's foot...

  4. 'Hairspray': More than just a spritz of showtunes

    THEATER REVIEW: "Hairpsray" at Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook Terrace ★★★ ... I don't mean to claim that "Hairspray" is some kind of masterwork of racial harmony. I'm just saying that on Thursday night, I watched it do its still-useful thing in that regard.
    "If we get any more white people in here," complains one of the characters in "Hairspray," as curious Caucasians fill Motormouth Maybelle's record shop, "this is gonna be a suburb." That line — long familiar to those of us who've heard "Good...

  6. 'Oliver' wins with youth

    THEATER REVIEW: "Oliver" at the Drury Lane Theatre ★★★½ ... Where you have kids working like this, of course, you have a gifted director. And so it is with Rachel Rockwell.
    Since being mean to children is frowned upon these days — we've come a long way since Charles Dickens' gallery of cruel Victorian authority figures who love to bait an orphan — any critic wishing to note that the kids in a show are...

  10. 'American Idiot' is a loud, hard, Green Day lament

    THEATER REVIEW: "American Idiot" at the Oriental Theatre &#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#189; ... For all their Berkeley punk-rock bona fides - unassailable and enough to send a certain kind of ill-prepared theatergoer headed for an early exit - Green Day songs are actually filled with hope and longing.

  11. A little advice turns into Seinfeld directing for 'Colin Quinn: Long Story Short'

    Jerry Seinfeld and Colin Quinn seem like comedic opposites. Seinfeld is primarily observational; Quinn is primarily analytical. Seinfeld is disciplined and intense; Quinn is easygoing and meandering. Seinfeld is absurdist; Quinn is satirical.
