		<description><![CDATA[While anyone involved with theater is familiar with the concept of a stage whisper, what director David Fehr needs to introduce into Ka-Tet Theatre’s new show—the uneven and vaguely metaphorical &#8220;Sun, Stand Thou Still&#8221;—is the stage yell. Maybe it’s the tight quarters at Stage Left Theatre or the often sudden outbursts of the actors, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED New company Ruckus covers both the Jim McGreevey and Mark Foley sex scandals, which forced both men out of the closet into the glaring moral spotlight. It’s a clever if a bit overgrown look at life on the political downlow. Writer Kristian O’Hare’s narrative is cluttered and tonally confusing; the humor is by turn [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Following the twisted antics of anti-hero Mr. Suit as he traverses the halls of a hospital/asylum for damaged women, Brikenbrak Theatre Project’s production of The Samaritan Syndrome presents a dark examination of the human psyche—intrinsically asking us how often we hurt others (intentionally or unintentionally) while seeking to save ourselves. While the pain inflicted in [...]]]></description>

These physical signs of a show still in developmental stages are clearly reflected [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I enter my sixth year of Chicago stage criticism, I find it harder to distinguish raw talent when it’s marred by bad material. Because no matter how much passion and commitment is pumped into a mediocre play, the evening usually becomes a case of watching performers working tirelessly, but to tiresome effect.  The hard [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An uneven but charming series of one-acts about the South Asian diaspora that deftly overcomes stereotypes of victimization and the American dream but gets undermined by increased sanctimoniousness throughout the night. The plays’ ordering is astute, moving thematically from immigration to working to the fallout of expatriation for later generations. The first, “Instant Recall,” is [...]]]></description>

The chaos it creates is the closest we can come to something [...]]]></description>

John Logan&#8217;s script delves into minds of two murderers dedicated to committing the perfect crime. Leopold (Ron Popp) and Loeb (Matt Hays) murder a local boy and shortly confess; their trial then becomes a [...]]]></description>
