February comp tickets to Saint Joan by ShawChicago Theater

Posted on January 21, 2014 by The Goddess

Saint Joan is Shaw at his finest, a masterfully original telling of the Joan of Arc story that mixes comedy and history with the legendary playwright’s uniquely pointed commentary on religion, society and politics. Considered by many to be Shaw’s greatest play, Saint Joan played a major role in the playwright’s 1925 Nobel Prize win. In this concert reading from ShawChicago Theater Company, we meet the Joan of Arc that Shaw believed in: not a saint, witch or madwoman, but a simple farm girl who becomes the catalyst for a united France. Propelled by saintly voices only she can hear, she leads the French forces to defeat the invading English army, only to be accused of heresy and witchcraft in the aftermath of victory.

It wasn’t until 2002 that the movie classic made its way to the stage, under the helm of renowned composer Marvin Hamlisch (A Chorus Line, The Goodbye Girl), composer Craig Carnelia (Working, Imaginary Friends) and playwright John Guare (The House of Blue Leaves, Six Degrees of Separation). Ruthless gossip columnist J.J. Hunsecker can make or break anyone he wants — and everyone from chorus girls to Congressmen live in fear of his poison pen. Until now, his beloved half-sister was the only person immune from his vicious methods. But now that she has plans for a life and love of her own, Hunsaker turns his destructive powers on her.

discount tickets to Drury Lane’s Young Frankenstein

Posted on January 15, 2014 by The Goddess

Get tickets up to half off to Drury Lane’s production of Young Frankenstein. It’s alive! Mel Brooks reunited with the creative team behind The Producers for this comedic re-imagining of the Frankenstein story that became a Broadway hit. The musical follows young Dr. Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronkensteen”) as he tries to complete his grandfather’s work and bring a corpse to life. He is aided by the hunchbacked, bulging-eyed Igor, his beautiful lab assistant, Inga, and the frightfully eccentric housekeeper, Frau Blucher. Featuring a live orchestra, an energetic cast and hilarious, catchy tunes like “Transylvania Mania,” “He Vas My Boyfriend” and “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” Drury Lane Theatre’s production ofYoung Frankenstein is scientifically proven to be a horrifically good time.

btw: It was not a Broadway hit; I feel Mel Brooks owes me some serious cash back.

Get comp tickets to preview performance of Ain’t Misbehavin’ (one date is already sold out). Let Porchlight Music Theatre’s Ain’t Misbehavin’ transport you back in time to the golden age of jazz, when hot spots like the Cotton Club played host to the music of 1930s Harlem, and where swing music, jazz and stride piano infused the entire country with renewed energy. This Tony Award-winning show is a song-filled celebration of the timeless music of Thomas “Fats” Waller, who penned more than 400 songs during his career — many of which have entered the classic repertoire of jazz standards still popular today. An energetic ensemble of talented performers will bring down the house with a musical parade of Fats Waller’s most popular hits — rowdy, raunchy, humorous songs that encapsulate the moods of an era and reflect Waller’s view of life as a journey meant for pleasure and play.
