SUMMARY:Ed Helms on SNAFU at the Chicago Temple
DESCRIPTION:Actor\, comedian\, writer\, and producer Ed Helms is perhaps best known for his roles as Andy Bernard on The Office and Stu Price in The Hangover film trilogy. His newest project is the book SNAFU\, based on his hit podcast\, which brings you an absurdly entertaining look at history’s greatest screwups. Spanning from the 1950’s to the 2000’s\, Ed Helms steps in as unofficial history teacher with a loving tribute to humanity’s finest faceplants\, diving into each decade’s craziest SNAFUs. From planting nukes on the moon to training felines as CIA spies to weaponizing the weather\, Helms joins us to unpack the incredibly ironic decision-making and hilariously terrifying aftermath of America’s biggest mishaps. They’re the kind of stories that not only entertain but offer fresh insights that just might prevent history from repeating itself again and again. \nAccessibility: open captions\, assistive listening devices \nhttps://www.chicagohumanities.org/events/attend/ed-helms/

SUMMARY:Art/Access Lab: Incongruent Access at Experimental Station
DESCRIPTION:Join HCL\, UDF\, and Bri Beck for a facilitated community conversation surrounding the nuanced challenges of cross disability access in personal\, professional\, and communal spaces. \nAs disabled people\, we often navigate the complexities of self-disclosure\, accessibility\, and supporting one another—especially when our access needs conflict. How do we balance personal well-being with community care? How can we acknowledge and navigate these tensions while fostering inclusivity? \nFacilitated by Bri Beck\, a licensed clinical professional counselor\, this workshop invites participants into a thoughtful discussion on the realities of conflicting access needs. Together\, we will explore expectations\, boundaries\, and the emotional complexities that arise when our needs don’t align. Through guided conversations and small-group discussions\, we’ll reflect on real-life scenarios\, share strategies\, and consider how to create more inclusive spaces without sacrificing individual support. \nAll are welcome to join this important dialogue on the nuances of accessibility\, interdependence\, and the challenges of building truly inclusive communities. \nACCESSIBILITY: ASL Interpreted\, Open Captions\, Sensory Friendly\, Wheelchair Accessible \nhttps://highconceptlabs.org/events/art-access-lab-may-2025

SUMMARY:The Purposeful Warrior: A Conversation with Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson
DESCRIPTION:As Michigan’s Secretary of State and chief election official\, Secretary Jocelyn Benson has overseen several of the highest turnout\, most secure elections in the state’s history. But her life changed in December 2020 when armed protesters descended onto her doorstep\, threatening her family. Her only crime: certifying a fair and accurate Presidential election in which the protesters’ preferred candidate — Donald Trump — did not win. Benson stood her ground\, spoke out louder\, and helped expose and defeat a coordinated national effort to overturn the 2020 election. Join us as Benson challenges us all to think about what we are willing to be warriors for in our own lives\, and shows us how to turn fear and frustration into a fight for our own purpose\, vision\, and future.

SUMMARY:The Antiquities – ASL Performance at Goodman Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A “brilliantly imagined drama” (Wall Street Journal) for anyone whose computer has asked them to prove that they’re a human. Which is to say\, everyone. \nAt the Museum of Late Human Antiquities\, the curators are fiercely committed to bringing a lost civilization to life again: What were humans really like? What did they wear\, what did they eat\, how did they die out? By casting us into the far future\, Jordan Harrison’s “compelling” and “beautifully drawn” (New York Times) new play gives us an uncanny view of the present moment\, as we straddle the analog world that was and the post-human world to come. \nA Co-Production with Playwrights Horizons and Vineyard Theatre \nAccessibility: ASL \nhttps://www.goodmantheatre.org/show/the-antiquities/

SUMMARY:A Tale of Two Cities at Theater Wit
DESCRIPTION:A Tale of Two Cities\nBy Charles Dickens\nAdapted by Brendan Pelsue\nDirected by Mikael Burke \nIt’s still the best of times and the worst of times. In a society where the gap between the rich and poor widens\, and the cries for revolution grow louder\, one can relate. This bold reimagining of Charles Dickens’s classic tale of revolution shows us that while a story may be 165 years old\, some things never change. Or\, can they? \nOpen-Captioned Public Performance:\nSunday\, May 25th at 3 pm \nhttps://www.theaterwit.org/tickets/productions/530/performances
