Here’s the City’s official advisory in PDF form if you didn’t see it when it was issued on Thursday, November 12.
- Tue-Sat at 8 PM and Sun at 7 PM, through 11/21: Catch the last showings of Theatre in the Dark’s online production of A War of the Worlds. The Reader’s Theater and Dance Editor Kerry Reid called it a “stylish and compelling adaptation.”
- Sat 11/14, 7 PM: Elastic Arts hosts an online version of the house and underground dance music series St(art Up), tonight featuring sets from DJ K.hsia and the DJ duo Jackersize.
- Ongoing through 12/18: Chicago’s Congo Square Theatre presents Hit ‘Em on the Blackside, a digital sketch comedy show directed by company member Anthony Irons. New episodes are uploaded to the theater company’s Instagram and Facebook pages every Friday.
