And a new musical-comedy from Chicago Shakespeare based on a cult classic sci-fi movie.
Of course, they are best known for staging the works of William Shakespeare. But Chicago Shakespeare Theater has been developing new shows for years. The recent Broadway smash “Six” is perhaps its most notable success. Now they are bringing aliens to center stage with a musical-comedy adaptation of the 1950s sci-fi film “It Came From Outer Space.”
