  1. 2011 FALL THEATER GUIDE

    New theaters. Renovated playhouses. Hot dramas. Nervous new artistic directors. Stephen Sondheim and his “Follies.” A celebration of Stephen Schwartz, a dissection of Mark Rothko, and a look at the tragedy that befell the Amish of Pennsylvania. “The Kid Thing” by Chicago Dramatists and About Face. “The Real Thing” in Glencoe. All kinds of things at Theater Wit. With apologies to Oscar Hammerstein II, the fall is busting out all over.

  10. Second Inning: A Pair of Sox in Chicago

    Before I get into today's game notes, I feel compelled to go off script to write about food.&nbsp; Baseball food. Hot dogs in particular. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a hot dog aficionado.&nbsp; I used to own a hot dog company; Far From Fenway Franks.&nbsp; I host hot dog feasts at work twice a year to celebrate the opening day of the season and the opening day of playoffs.&nbsp; I have been to 49 of&nbsp;50 states (I still see no reason to visit Oklahoma) and have enjoyed hot dogs in most of them.&nbsp; I am a bit of a hot dog snob, demanding only the best meats, buns, toppings (yes, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">toppings</span>... The <span style="text-decoration: underline;">toppings</span> go only on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">top</span>, not under the dog), and atmosphere. By the way, real Fenway Franks at Fenway only have the atmosphere.
