SUMMARY:Six Degrees of Separation - Hyde Park Community Players
DESCRIPTION:Six Degrees of Separation – Hyde Park Community Players \nFriday\, November 14\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, November 15\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, November 16\, 2:00 pm\nFriday\, November 21\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, November 22\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, November 23\, 2:00 pm \nUniversity Church\n5655 S. University Ave. \nJoin us for our next mainstage production\, Six Degrees of Separation\, written by John Guare and directed by Dorothy Parsons. Inspired by a true story\, the play follows the trail of a young Black man\, Paul\, who insinuates himself into the lives of a wealthy New York couple\, Ouisa and Flan Kittredge\, claiming he knows their children at college. Captivated by Paul’s intelligence and his fascinating conversation\, the Kittredges invite him to stay overnight. After an incident changes their opinion of him\, Ouisa and Flan piece together the connections that gave Paul access to their lives. Meanwhile\, Paul’s cons unexpectedly lead him into darker territory\, and his lies begin to catch up with him. As the final events of the play unfold\, Ouisa suddenly finds herself caring for Paul\, feeling that he gave them far more than he took and that her once idyllic life was not what it seemed to be. \nThe play explores the existential premise that everyone in the world is connected to everyone else in the world by a chain of no more than six acquaintances\, thus\, “six degrees of separation.” \n\nGet Your Advance Tickets Here!\nJoin us for Six Degrees of Separation\, November 14-16 and 21-23. Advance tickets are $15\, and tickets at the door are $20 general admission\, $18 for students and seniors. All performances are at University Church\, 5655 S. University Ave.\n(Please note: Advance ticket sales close 24 hours before each show. After that point\, tickets are available only at the door and not at the advance ticket price.)

SUMMARY:The Taming of the Shrew
DESCRIPTION:The Taming of the Shrew \nWelcome to a tale of deception\, disguise\, and desire.\n \nThe richest man in town has two daughters and one big problem: he refuses to marry the youngest\, Bianca\, until the eldest\, Katherina\, is married first. Much to her family’s dismay\, Katherina repeatedly – and violently – rejects the men interested in her and her wealth\, and refuses to sacrifice her independence. When a mysterious gentleman enters the mix\, suddenly Kate sees that surrender is no sacrifice. Perhaps there is strength in submission.\n \nArtistic Director of Remy Bumppo Theatre Company Marti Lyons (Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner) turns William Shakespeare’s classic inside out\, with a fresh interpretation focused on feminine desire. This is not your standard Shrew.\n \nPlease Note: This adaptation of The Taming of the Shrew engages with mature themes—including desire\, sexuality\, and power dynamics.\n \nAccessible Performances:\n\n\nASL Interpretation: Saturday\, December 6 at 2:00pm\nTouch Tour: Sunday\, December 7 at 12:30pm\nAudio Description and Open Captioning: Sunday\, December 7 at 2:00pm

SUMMARY:Brentano String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Brentano String Quartet \nPraised for their “luxuriously warm sound” (New York Times) and “wonderful\, selfless music-making” (The Times\, London)\, the Brentano String Quartet has been a leading voice in chamber music since 1992. With a fearless interpretive voice and a flair for smart\, distinctive programming\, the ensemble has collaborated with artists such as Joyce DiDonato\, Mitsuko Uchida\, and Jonathan Biss\, and has commissioned works from Gabriela Lena Frank and Vijay Iyer. Based at the Yale School of Music\, where they serve as Artists-in-Residence\, Brentano continues to shape the future of the string quartet through performance and mentorship. \nTheir UChicago program features Haydn at his most playful\, Bartók at his most bracing\, and Dvořák in full lyric flight. With three decades of insight behind every phrase\, Brentano delivers a tour-de-force evening of string quartet mastery. \nProgram\n\n\nHaydn: Quartet in C Major\, Op. 54\, No. 2\nBartók: Quartet No. 4\, Sz 91\nDvořák: Quartet in G Major\, Op. 106
