Review: ‘Operation Mincemeat’ at CIBC Theatre spins a true wartime story into a nutty musical (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1943, the British intelligence service, MI6, came up with a wacky strategy to trick Adolf Hitler into thinking the Allies planned to invade Greece and Sardinia (not true) instead of Sicily (true), which Nazi Germany was heavily defending. They found the corpse of a homeless guy who had died in London from rat poison, attached to him a briefcase containing what appeared to be Sardinian invasion plans, sunk said body off the coast of Spain and then worked to get that attaché case into Spanish h
Steep Theatre readies its new Edgewater home (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Another new theater is coming to Chicago’s Far North Side, this one with the help of much foundation support and an unusually generous $4 million in City of Chicago funding. It will be located inside a former Christian Science Reading Room at 1044 W. Berwyn Ave., just up the street from TimeLine Theatre’s impressive new building. Steep Theatre will soon take up residence in its more modest, $7 million home as it prepares for its first major production there in January — Simon Stephens’ “A Slow F
Chicago Theater Report: Carrie Coon sings Christmas, ‘Come From Away’ adds shows and Milwaukee Rep makes bank (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fans of longtime Chicago actress Carrie Coon have the chance to hear her sing about Santa and such, which feels a tad counterintuitive, to say the least. Coon is part of “Voices of The Gilded Age: The Christmas Album,” a spinoff from the popular HBO drama in which Coon stars. Perchance husband Tracy Letts will guest as Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The Milwaukee Repertory Theater has announced a big infusion of endowment cash. Thanks to a so-called “challenge gift” from major donors Ellen and

Read excerpt
Lookingglass Theatre has appointed David Catlin, a longtime ensemble member and a Northwestern University faculty member, and Ericka Ratcliff, most recently the literary manager at Chicago Shakespeare Theater, as its new co-artistic directors. They replace Kasey Foster, who has completed a three-year term. Meanwhile, Philip R. Smith, a longtime Lookingglass ensemble member and leader with decades of commitment to the company, is leaving his development role at Writers Theatre in Glencoe to becom
Review: ‘School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play’ on Broadway finds its life in the girls (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NEW YORK — Sometimes you need to see two different productions of a show to understand the value of a truly inspiring stage director who can take a narratively predictable script and turn it into a total blast. Such was the case for me with “School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play,” a cumbersomely titled moral comedy from Jocelyn Bioh that the director Whitney White has transformed into a profoundly optimistic Broadway celebration of girlhood. The show now possesses a spirit so exuberant a
