chicago people seeking entertainment

Mar 21, 2007 11:00

This year I made the decision that I want to read and write more, and at least once a month, I need to go do something cool in the big city. Like go to a museum, a concert, or a play, because why live in Chicago if I'm not going to take advantage of it?

Last Saturday, I went (with tzikeh et al.) to see Thom Pain (based on nothing), put on by Theater Wit. The play was written by Will Eno, and it earned him a Pulitzer nomination. The New York Times called the play "Samuel Beckett for the Jon Stewart generation." It's seventy minutes of awesome, and if you have a free night and $25, I encourage everyone to go see it. Hell, I'm tempted to go see it again.

It plays Thursdays through Sundays, and it's only running until April 15. You can buy tickets at Theater Wit!
