		<description><![CDATA[When Timothy Douglas resigned midway through his first season as Remy Bumppo Theatre&#8217;s artistic director, Nick Sandys stepped up to fill the role. Sandys had already been an Artistic Associate, helping to chose the seasons, running extra programming and essentially working as a literary manager, so the transition made sense. &#8220;I have a working relationship [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ostensibly about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the dynamic members of New York-based Universes (writers and performers of “Ameriville”) quickly take this high-powered percussion- and vocals-driven show down a twisting American path that leads out of New Orleans and into rapid-fire discussions of topics ranging from homelessness to healthcare to illegal immigrants. By the time [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[George Bernard Shaw&#8217;s 1912 adaptation of one of Aesop&#8217;s fables was a bit of a dramatic firebrand when it first premiered, attacking religious and political hypocrisy and calling instead for earnestness and honesty. Nonetheless, the story of Christians being sent to the slaughter in ancient Rome was so wildly misunderstood that the writer felt it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Anchored by the well-honed comedic timing of Diva LaVida as Mari, a tough mariachi seeking revenge for the killing of his “womans” by local gangster Mierda, the cast of this provocative parody of Robert Rodriguez’s cult favorite &#8220;El Mariachi” (later remade into the more popular “Desperado” starring Antonio Banderas) works hard to sell the [...]]]></description>

She&#8217;s just barely survived a horrible injury while [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Signal Ensemble might be the 1968 New York Jets of Chicago theater: scrappy, undermanned and under-resourced, but quarterbacked by a leader with a knack for championship-level razzle dazzle. I&#8217;d write something like that, but Ronan Marra, Signal&#8217;s co-artistic director and the playwright of &#8220;Motion&#8221; is a Cleveland native and a Browns fan, so he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Jeffrey Skilling (Bret Tuomi) comes to Enron with new ideas: mark-to-market accounting, electricity trading. The company makes fistfuls of cash and causes fatal, rolling blackouts in California. But it’s not just Skilling’s ideas that are scandalous; it’s that everyone (Enron lawyers and accountants, the financial industry) lets him get away with it. I was [...]]]></description>

He&#8217;s been an NFL fan since he was a kid. He knows the ins and outs, not just of the game, but the behind-the-scenes, the draft, the politics—you name it. &#8220;For the last [...]]]></description>

But despite all [...]]]></description>
