An unexpected variety show

Sequels are very rarely better than the original stories. But Forward Theaterâs current production of
46 Plays for Americaâs First Ladies is a definite exception â it is even better than its predecessor and companion piece,
44 Plays for 44 Presidents. Written and developed by many of the same artists from Chicagoâs Neo-Futurists (Genevra Gallo-Bayiates, Sharon Greene, Chloe Johnston, Bilal Dardai and Andy Bayiates), this funny, inventive, sometimes poignant, sometimes bizarre, episodic variety show focuses on the women behind the men who have led our country over the past 200-plus years. A virtual performance that was filmed in the Overtureâs Playhouse in front of a socially distanced live audience, the play is available to stream until May 23.

Ask any librarian, and you could get a story about an overdue book. I’m sure they all have their favorites. Playwright
Glen Berger takes this experience to the next level when he imagines a young librarian finding a book in the overnight deposit chute that is 113 years overdue.
The book has enticing notes written in the margins that motivate our heroine to take a journey of self-discovery as she goes around the world defying the bounds of space and time, seeking to collect the fine for this book.
