Cut to the Quick:by The Phoenix
Jan 01, 2010
“It's good to know that Chicago's blessed with plucky small-scale theaters like the Side Project that are dedicated to the production of heavy-hitting and ambitious short theater projects such as its current show, Cut to the Quick. It's even better to know that such a theater is so close to our Loyolan home, just two skips and an el jump away in Jarvis Square.”

Op-Ed: The Handshake that Shook Americaby The Phoenix
Jan 01, 2010
“Kennedy and Khrushchev. Nixon and Mao Zedong. Reagan and Gorbachev. And now Barack Obama and Hugo Chavez. David Shuster of MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann last night highlighted the momentous handshakes in history between American Presidents and the leaders of what were at the time enemy nations:
"Are we so damaged from eight years of Bush foreign policy," asked Shuster, "that a handshake could create such an uproar?" It certainly seems so.”

Of Mice and Mackby The Phoenix
Apr 21, 2009
“Ahhh, soak it in. It's the best time of the year.
Sure, the weather isn't quite summeresque. Public Enemies remains months from its theatrical release. And next week's finals and term papers will be more unbearable than that ubiquitous "What can I get for a dollar?" McDonald's commercial.”

Grapes of Rafby The Phoenix
Apr 21, 2009
“Don't be fooled by the competition - the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune have a lot more in common than you might imagine. There's the blatant bankruptcy resemblance, with both newspapers succumbing to the economy and making every young journalist cry themselves to sleep.”

Twelfth Nightby The Phoenix
Apr 21, 2009
“William Shakespeare will turn 445 this week, and as Chicago is celebrating with "Talk Like Shakespeare Day," daring productions of one of the Bard's best comedies can be seen here in the hippest theater city in the country. Shakespeare's Twelfth Night at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre is a decently straightforward production with one major exception: Some members of the audience might want to bring ponchos.”

“Following Shannon Reidy's abrupt resignation from her position as head coach of women's basketball, the team and the program found themselves swept up in the winds of change and uncertainty. On April 6, after nearly a month of wondering, the Ramblers were finally informed of their new coach, Eric Simpson.”
