Bring In 'Da Funk
The Q Brothers debut their "ad-rap-tation" of Much Ado About Nothing at Chicago Shakespeare Theater, winner of the 2008 Regional Tony Award.

Review: The Mysteries of Harris Burdick
This disappointing musical adaptation of Chris Van Allsburg's beloved children's book is far too reductive and literal-minded.

Review: Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy
This circus-like entertainment is mostly recommended for young theatergoers or adults who haven't seen this kind of show before.

Talkin' Broadway

Review: The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)
Review: The Count of Monte Cristo, Theatre de la Jeune Lune

Review: Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy
It’s safe to assume that all the people encouraging us to live greener lives really don’t have Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy in mind. The overgrown spectacle now at the Broadway is more characteristic of lackadaisical excess than of active love for one’s fellow man. Or, for that matter, love for anything other than one’s own body. . . .
