  1. After a rough start, Andrew Lloyd Webber revue shines

    THEATER REVIEW: 'Now and Forever' at the Marriott Theatre ★★★ ... At the start - the rough start - of "Now & Forever," the throbbing electronic tones of "The Phantom of the Opera" fill the theater as colored lights flash repetitively on a chandelier sitting on the stage.

  4. 2011 Holiday Guide

    Like the creeping tinsel at the mall, holiday shows in Chicago seem to start earlier each year. This season, it was “White Christmas” at the Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire even before the trick-or-treaters had ventured forth from their stoops. But bear in mind that theaters know how much Chicago audiences love their seasonal entertainments. If, like me, you're an urban romantic in love with the classic downtown experience, this is the golden time of the year, full of family members enjoying the arts together and cramming in a live show between busy days and nights of shopping, eating and merrymaking.

  8. Theater Chicagoan of the Year is JESSIE MUELLER: A glass slipper, a crystalline voice

    It has been several years since an actor was our Chicagoan of the year in theater — and even longer since the honor went to someone just 28 years old. But then Jessie Mueller is not an ordinary performer. Nor has she just lived through a typical year.

  9. A very full load of nominees for this year's Equity Jeff Awards

    Apparently confronted by a plethora of riches in the past season of Chicago theater, the Joseph Jefferson Awards Committee offered up not the traditional four or five nominees one finds at the Tony Awards, for instance, but a bevy of nominees for its annual awards. In the case of best Equity production in Chicago last year, the committee came up a whopping 18 nominees, divided between "large" and "midsized" companies. And that doesn't even include the musicals.
