Paramount Theatre delivers the gift of gags courtesy of The Second City, while Steppenwolf premieres a new comedy and Evanston s Theo Ubique revives "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas," this week in Chicago-area theater.
Lauren Anderson, whose story is told in “Plumshuga” in Houston, talks about the show, her personal battles and storied career: “I got to the mountaintop.”
In a new production adapted from Eve Ewing’s collection of poetry, the Steppenwolf for Young Adults program explores 1919’s legacy. The playwright, J. Nicole Brooks, says she has been a longtime fan of Ewing’s work.
