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.

Jude Law, Forest Whitaker Misfire With Awful ‘Repo Men’
Submitted by BrianTT on March 19, 2010 - 3:05pmRating: 1.0/5.0 |
