CHICAGO – Society, or at least certain elements of society, are always looking for scapegoats to hide the sins of themselves and authority. In the so-called “great America” of the 1950s, the scapegoat target was comic books … specifically through a sociological study called “The Seduction of the Innocent.” City Lit Theater Company, in part two of a trilogy on comic culture by Mark Pracht, presents “The Innocence of Seduction … now through October 8th, 2023.

After answering one letter dated back to 1957, she inspires its author (Vanessa Redgrave) to travel to Italy in search of her long-lost love. This sets off a chain of events that will bring a love into both their lives unlike anything they ever imagined.

If you had a second chance to find true love, what would you do
I would have given her a 2nd chance!
If you had a second chance to find true love, what would you do
Nothing I have it!
Um haven't even had a first chance!
Haven’t found it yet…
2nd chance?
I wouldn’t blow my first chance- and I’m still waiting for that first chance to happen!
What I would do.
I would weigh all the pros and cons and make a decision accordingly.
Be nicer
Be nicer
Letters to Juliet
I am more open to things outside my perception as great things come packaged in multiple ways.
2nd Chance
NOTHING!!!! I’D DO THE SAME THING OVER AGAIN…….
I’d have worried a little
I’d have worried a little bit less about the future and focused more on living in the moment.
I wouldn’t hesitate in
I wouldn’t hesitate in saying what I wanted to say but didn’t!
