Suffering through Albee

Suffering? Well, Albee! Despite the fact that my body seems on the verge of succumbing to The Crud™ (some wicked combination of SARS and a head cold, it seems) that's felled several of my students and what seems like half my office, I've decided to extend this weekend's trip to Chicago by a day and catch the press preview of Edward Albee's The Goat, or Who is Sylvia? at The Goodman Theatre on Monday night. Aside from the fact it's a remarkable work and that I'm curious to see what Robert Falls and his cast do with it, it'll also be good field research for my next few weeks at work.

And speaking of shows at my place, you've only a week or so left to see our production of Mary Zimmerman's Metamorphoses. I'm biased, of course, but it's a beautiful production and with no slight intended, I like our take on the show a good deal more than I did the Broadway production.
