    C2E2 -- the annual, gargantuan Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo at McCormick Place -- opened Friday, and as usual for the first day of a major comic book convention, things started slow, geeks were still arriving, B-list celebrities just settling in, Green Lanterns getting off work.

  2. Sleight of hand in a wood-paneled room is quality entertainment of the old school

    THEATER REVIEW: "The Magic Parlour" by House Theatre at the Palmer House Hilton ★★★ ... In decades past, the hotels of downtown Chicago were full of after-hours entertainment. There were glamorous cabarets, variety acts and intimate soirees on offer.

  3. Caribbean odyssey a harrowing and humorous tale

    THEATER REVIEW: 'Jamaica, Farewell' at Chopin Theatre ★★★ ... "Jamaica, Farewell," which has arrived here from Los Angeles, is a different kind of international show, but one just as potent and revealing of global forces as a window into some distant land.
    "Jamaica, Farewell" a show title with a judiciously placed comma but very little in the way of a set or other trappings, is one woman's first-person story of her determination to leave the Caribbean island of her birth and find her way to a new life in...

  4. Chicago volunteer organizations spread literacy

    More than five years ago, in a colorful classroom at Michael Faraday Elementary School in a harsh area on Chicago's West Side, three women and their three dogs were helping a group of second--graders learn to read. They were volunteers for an organization called Sit Stay Read! which for a decade has been bringing the joys of reading to little kids, using dogs as a tool.

  5. Interview: RZA head over heels for directing

    Any rapper can star in a movie, but starring, directing, co-writing and co-scoring a studio film? Even for a man who calls directors Quentin Tarantino and Eli Roth friends, that&rsquo;s almost unheard of within the hip-hop world. And yet, it&rsquo;s no surprise <span class=&quot;bold" style="text-align: justify; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">RZA</span> (real name: Robert Fitzgerald Diggs) would want to test that mostly uncharted territory.

  6. Your tables are ready

    If we knew exactly what made restaurants successful, then there would be no unsuccessful ones. But the business is unpredictable and customers fickle; some mediocre concepts seemingly last forever, while genuinely worthy enterprises wither on the vine.

  7. Must menu choices be so difficult?

    A year or so ago, not long before chef Ryan McCaskey opened Acadia in the South Loop, he began thinking about what his soon-to-be restaurant might serve at brunch. A lifelong Deadhead, he was traveling around the country, following what remains of the Grateful Dead, eating far more breakfasts and brunches than he typically does as a workaday Chicago chef: &quot;I guess I had never thought much about how regional breakfast can be &mdash; how in the South, you'll find lots of sweets, biscuits in the morning, then in San Francisco, things get ultra-handmade and inventive, lots of pastries. I ate this blueberry muffin that probably weighed like 2 pounds."

  9. Yuri Lane needs to get beyond the noisy fame

    THEATER REVIEW: &quot;MeTube" at Collaboraction Theatre &#9733;&#9733; ... Popularity is a weird thing in the arts. After Yuri Lane, the Chicago-based performance artist and self-styled "human beatbox," placed video clips of his work on YouTube, he quickly scored, he tells us, almost 9 million views.

    Cupcakes are cool. But doughnuts are hot. A handful of new and relatively new shops are producing the kind of high-quality, limited-quantity, chef-driven doughnuts that truly can be called artisanal products. Much as cupcake specialists revolutionized...

  11. Two stars for both CiNe and A Toda Madre

    There is no shortage of decent Mexican restaurants in the western suburbs, but far too many of them play down to their audiences, falling back on the standard Mexican and even Tex-Mex dishes that everybody prepares.

  12. Q&A: Kate Hudson, Riz Ahmed of 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist'

    In the political drama &quot;The Reluctant Fundamentalist," Changez (Riz Ahmed) transitions from a financial hotshot in 2001 New York to a man suspected of being a terrorist in 2011 Lahore, Pakistan. Kate Hudson plays Erica, an artist who offers Changez a (romantic) respite from an America that continually closes in around him.
