SUMMARY:Trouble in Mind at Timeline Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A cutting yet humorous behind-the-curtain drama that examines pervasive racial dynamics within the American theatre and the tolls of superficial representation on stage.\nACCLAIMED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES as “a rich\, unsettling play that lives up to its title [and] lingers in one’s memory long after its conclusion.” \nAt a Broadway theater in New York City in the mid-1950s\, a group of actors has gathered for their first day rehearsing a new play called Chaos in Belleville\, an anti-lynching Southern drama. But as the cast rehearses\, tensions flare between Wiletta\, the Black actress in the starring role\, and her white director about his interpretation of the play. What emerges is an explosive investigation of interracial politics and the need for a cultural shift in theatre and America. \nWritten by Alice Childress—the first Black woman to have a play professionally produced in New York City—Trouble in Mind recently enjoyed an acclaimed Broadway production nominated for four 2022 Tony Awards\, including Best Revival of a Play. The critics raved that this “masterpiece of astonishing power” (New York Magazine) is “the play of the moment” (The New York Times) and “will take your breath away” (Associated Press). \n— \nThis performance of Trouble in Mind. will be audio described\, featuring narration about visual elements of the production around the dialogue. Audio Description can be accessed by patrons via a headset loaned out from the Box Office before the show. \nIf you have any questions or would like to request any specific accommodations\, please contact the Box Office at BoxOffice@TimeLineTheatre.com or (773) 281-8463 extension 6. \nFull price tickets begin at $47 (including fees). To access a $27 ticket\, please use code AUDIO22 at check-out or call the Box Office. \nTrouble in Mind \n \n

SUMMARY:The Factotum - Audio Description & American Sign Language
DESCRIPTION:A new work inspired by Rossini’s The Barber of Seville that has grown into an original piece all its own\, commissioned by Lyric. Updating the action to a Black barbershop on Chicago’s South Side\, the creators have made an irresistibly upbeat work that celebrates the strength of community. The Factotum blends diverse musical styles with boundless imagination to create a soul opera\, moving from gospel and funk to rap\, hip-hop\, classic barbershop quartet\, and R&B. Those styles connect brilliantly with classical singing in a very human comedy that redefines everything that opera can be. \nThis event includes ASL interpretation and audio description. \nhttps://www.lyricopera.org/shows/upcoming/2022-23/the-factotum/ \n

SUMMARY:the ripple\, the wave that carried me home at Goodman Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A family responds to injustice and a daughter reckons with her political inheritance in this new play by “a poet\, a playwright to pay attention to” (Variety). \nJanice’s parents are prominent activists fighting for the integration of public swimming pools in 1960s Kansas. As injustice penetrates the warm bubble of her childhood\, Janice grows apart from her family and starts a new life far away. When she receives a call asking her to speak at a ceremony honoring her father\, she must decide whether she’s ready to reckon with her political inheritance—and a past she has tried to forget. \nA Co-Production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre. \nCaptioning is available. \nhttps://www.goodmantheatre.org/ripple

SUMMARY:Toni Stone at Goodman Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Play ball! The sensational true story of the first woman to play professional baseball knocks it out of the park as a can’t-miss theatrical event. \nToni Stone is an encyclopedia of baseball stats. She’s got a great arm. And she doesn’t understand why she can’t play with the boys. Rejected by the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League because of her race\, Toni sets out to become the first woman to play in baseball’s Negro Leagues. Challenges on and off the field—from hostile crowds to players who slide spikes-first—only steel her resolve to shatter racist and sexist barriers in the sport she’s loved since childhood. An original play inspired by the book Curveball\, The Remarkable Story of Toni Stone by Martha Ackmann\, this New York Times Critic’s Pick will have you cheering along. \nASL interpretation is available. \nhttps://www.goodmantheatre.org/Toni

SUMMARY:Boulevard of Bold Dreams at TimeLine Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Set on the night in 1940 that Hattie McDaniel made history at the Oscars\, a story of dreamers striving to overcome considerable obstacles and fighting for recognition amidst the racism and inequity of Hollywood. \nIT IS FEBRUARY 29\, 1940\, the night of the Academy Awards in Hollywood\, California.
