More glowing reviews for Ghostlight Ensemble’s production of Alabama Story by Kenneth Jones. New City Stage and Third Coast Review both recommend the production saying “The play is smoothly directed by Robison, who uses the bookstore event space smartly to change scenes and move characters in and out” (Third Coast) and “The cast delivers brilliant performances all around.” (New City)

Alabama Story runs two more weekends, Oct 11-13 & Oct 18-20, at Haymarket House, 800 W Buena Ave, Chicago .

Rave reviews from audience members and critics alike are piling up for Ghostlight Ensemble's production of Oscar Wilde's An Ideal Husband, which has sold out every production (including previews) so far.

Splash Magazine says "it is a delightful show and highly recommended." While the Chicago Reader also recommends this "savvy" production calling it,  "remarkable: a compelling examination of acute moral dilemmas faced by recognizable people with rich inner lives." And Chicago On Stage says of the cast, "the acting is uniformly excellent" and adding this "a first-rate production."

Meanwhile audience members have said, "Perfectly staged in the Berger Park Cultural Center mansion, elegantly costumed, and finely acted, this is a show to see."

It definitely IS a show to see. But you'll need to get your tickets in advance for An Ideal Husband, which runs through April 28, because we've been turning people away at the door. Tickets are available now through Brown Paper Tickets.
