Ver todo- A TALE OF TWO CITIES at Shattered Globe TheatreTheatre Wit, Chicago, IL
A TALE OF TWO CITIES
Written by Charles Dickens
Directed by Mikael Burke
https://www.sgtheatre.org/season34/totcIt’s still the best of times and the worst of times. In a society where the gap between the rich and poor widens, and the cries for revolution grow louder, one can relate. This bold reimagining of Charles Dickens’s classic tale of revolution shows us that while a story may be 165 years old, some things never change. Or, can they?
This production runs at about 2 hours 10 minutes with intermission.

THE ANTIQUITIES
by Jordan Harrison
Co-directed by David Cromer and Caitlin Sullivan
https://www.goodmantheatre.org/show/the-antiquities/A “brilliantly imagined drama” (Wall Street Journal) for anyone whose computer has asked them to prove that they’re a human. Which is to say, everyone.
At the Museum of Late Human Antiquities, the curators are fiercely committed to bringing a lost civilization to life again: What were humans really like? What did they wear, what did they eat, how did they die out? By casting us into the far future, Jordan Harrison’s “compelling” and “beautifully drawn” (New York Times) new play gives us an uncanny view of the present moment, as we straddle the analog world that was and the post-human world to come.

With a tuneful, groovy, mid-1960s score by Cy Coleman, sparkling lyrics by Dorothy Fields, and a hilarious book by Neil Simon, Sweet Charity captures all the energy, humor, and heartbreak of Life in the Big City for an unfortunate but irrepressible optimist.
