From Steppenwolf to Second City: Why The Windy City Is The Perfect Launchpad for Creatives

Paul Plunkett The oversized contribution Chicago has made and continues to make to the American entertainment landscape comes in no small part from its vibrant and varied theater scene. With well over 200 theaters, from small stages featuring intimate fare to larger houses sending major productions to Broadway and beyond, it’s difficult to find any American film or television series that doesn’t have roots that trace back to Windy City stages. The Steppenwolf Theater Company is one where heavy-hitters John Malkovich, Laurie Metcalf and Gary Sinise forged their craft early in their storied careers. Playwright and actor Tracy Letts premiered his Pulitzer Prize-winning “August: Osage County” at Steppenwolf in 2007.

‘The Conners’ ignites abortion debate after pregnancy announcement

The ABC comedy sitcom “The Conners” has never strayed away from taboo topics, and this time, the newly-announced pregnancy of one of its characters ignited a debate over abortion. Actress Emma Kenney, who plays “Harris” in the show, announced her pregnancy during Wednesday night’s episode, and her family, who has generations of young parents, had mixed reactions to the news. Harris’s grandfather, Dan, played by John Goodman, urged her to “seriously consider having this baby” after she broke the news. “Look, I know this is a shock, and you’re probably feeling there is no way I am ready to have this baby, but we’ve all felt like that,” he said. “There is never enough time, there is never enough money or enough anything you just make it happen, and somehow it all works out.”But Laurie Metcalf, who plays “Jackie” in the series, insinuated Harris should reconsider proceeding with the pregnancy. “Harris, my opinion is that you need to go with your gut on this and I think that I know what your decision is going to be,” Jackie told her. “How do you know?” Dan quickly shot back. “Because if Harris wasn’t pregnant, there is no way she would be thinking about having a kid,” Jackie said.

But as the blizzard outside rages on and one night turns into several, the couple becomes less and less sure of what’s true—about their hosts, themselves, and why that sound in the walls keeps getting louder.

‘Somewhere in Queens’ Review: What’s Not to Love About Ray Romano’s Directorial Debut?

Michael Nordine authorIt may come as a surprise to anyone who only knows him from the sitcom that made him a household name, but Ray Romano can really act. This first became apparent to many via his performance in “Parenthood,” Jason Katims’ small-screen adaptation of the Ron Howard movie that surpassed its source material in every way, and was further solidified when he held his own against Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in “The Irishman.” As it turns out, Romano can also direct.
