CHICAGO – There is no better time to take in a stage play that is based in U.S. history, depicting the battle between fact and religion. The old theater chestnut – first mounted in 1955 – is “Inherit the Wind,” now at the Goodman Theatre, completing it’s short run through October 20th. For tickets and more information, click INHERIT.
Stand-up comedy: Margaret Cho
Stand-up comic Margaret Cho returns to the Chicago Theatre to laugh patrons out of their seats one more time. She’ll assuredly revisit the themes that make her hilarity famous including ridiculing her mom, gay rights and strong political and cultural commentary.
Cho regularly reminds her audiences that she’s not fluent in Korean by mocking the accent of native-born speakers. She performs with comedian Liam Sullivan (who currently stars in the VH1 series “I Hate My 30s”).
