"Making the Beast with Two Backs"

There is still time to see the Chicago Shakespeare Theater (CST) on Navy Pier's presentation of Othello, which ends on April 6th. It is not as easy as it looks to adapt Shakespeare to a modern audience, but having seen the CST in action during their production of Troilus and Cressida in 2006, I can tell you that this Chicago troupe makes it happen in a big way.

They deliver engaging and exciting performances that captivate their audiences and keep them coming back for more. If you haven't seen a Shakespearean play performed live, this would be a great introduction. If you're a Shakespeare veteran, the CST will provide a great "shot in the arm."

If you want to see great acting, great costumes and a wonderful production, go check them out!

When: Saturdays : 8pm
Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays : 7:30pm (ends April 6)

Where: Chicago Shakespeare Theater on Navy Pier: 800 E. Grand Ave.
