SUMMARY:It Came From Outer Space
DESCRIPTION:A new musical comedy adapted from the ‘50s cult classic sci-fi film from Universal Pictures! Amateur astronomer John Putnam encounters an alien spaceship in the desert and becomes the laughingstock of his small town—until the extraterrestrial visitors make their presence known and he must convince the gathering mob that they have come in peace. A clever musical score and creative physical humor puts a new spin on Ray Bradbury’s flying saucer tale\, examining society’s fear of outsiders as it simultaneously embraces the wonder of what lies just beyond the stars. Commissioned and developed by Chicago Shakespeare with Creative Producer Rick Boynton\, the production reignites an artistic partnership with creators Joe Kinosian and Kellen Blair\, following the triumph of their Jeff Award-winning musical\, Murder for Two\, which went on to an acclaimed New York run. \nBook online with promo code “ACCESS” or call 312.595.5600 during regular Box Office hours (Tuesday–Sunday\, noon to 5:00 p.m.). Be sure to mention “Access Shakespeare” tickets so that we may provide the best seats and service. For additional assistance\, our Customer Service Portal is also available anytime day or night. \nhttps://www.chicagoshakes.com/plays_and_events/space

SUMMARY:Where We Belong
DESCRIPTION:Goodman Theatre Presents the Woolly Mammoth Production of Where We Belong\nIn Association with the Folger Shakespeare Library \nAn indigenous theatre-maker journeys across geographic borders\, personal history\, and cultural legacies; in search of a place to belong. \nIn 2015\, Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet travels to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare. Madeline finds a country that refuses to acknowledge its ongoing role in colonialism\, just as the Brexit vote threatens to further disengage the UK from the wider world. In this intimate and exhilarating solo piece\, Madeline echoes a journey to England braved by Native ancestors in the 1700s following treatise betrayals – and forces us to consider what it means to belong in an increasingly globalized world. \nContent Transparency: This production contains flashing lights\, depictions of racism\, and discussions of borders\, war\, loss of language\, residential schools\, colonial theft of human remains and repatriation. \nhttps://www.goodmantheatre.org/Belong
