REVIEW: "Cardboard Piano" at TimeLine Theatre (2.5 stars) . This play about a young, gay couple is intense it's set at the end of the Second Congo War. But it also needs quieter moments.
With a savvy sense of the moment, TimeLine has a salacious comedy about the blistering 1934 fight for California's governorship between Republican Frank Merriam and author Upton Sinclair.
Aurora s Copley Theatre revives the coming-of-age/coming-out musical "Fun Home." In Chicago, TimeLine Theatre gears up for the upcoming election season with the new screwball comedy "Campaigns Inc." by ensemble member Will Allan.
