SUMMARY:SMILEY
DESCRIPTION:Open Space Arts is proud to present SMILEY by Guillem Clua\, a sharp\, funny\, and deeply relatable queer romantic comedy that has captivated audiences around the world. \nOriginally premiering in Barcelona\, SMILEYquickly became a breakout success in Spain\, enjoying extended runs in Barcelona and Madrid and earning widespread acclaim. Since its debut\, the play has been produced internationally across Europe and Latin America\, with productions in Germany\, Italy\, Greece\, Cyprus\, Chile\, Puerto Rico\, Peru\, and beyond. \nWhile SMILEY has become a global audience favorite\, it has had only limited exposure in the United States\, with select Spanish-language productions in New York and Miami. Open Space Arts’ production introduces this internationally celebrated work to Chicago audiences\, offering a fresh opportunity to experience one of the most engaging contemporary queer love stories to emerge from the European stage. \nWhen ÁLEX leaves a voicemail for his ex\, it lands in the inbox of BRUNO—a stranger. What begins as a wrong message turns into an unexpected connection between two very different men. As texts turn into calls\, and calls into something more\, they navigate attraction\, vulnerability\, and the complicated reality of modern love. \nFunny\, fast\, and disarmingly honest\, SMILEYexplores the thrill and risk of connection in a world shaped by screens\, expectations\, and the fear of being truly seen. \nGuillem Clua is one of Spain’s most widely produced contemporary playwrights\, whose work has been staged internationally and translated into multiple languages. His plays\, including SMILEY and THE SWALLOW\, are known for their emotional intelligence\, wit\, and insight into the complexities of human connection. \nOpen Space Arts continues its commitment to bold\, intimate storytelling that centers queer lives and voices with SMILEY\, a play that reflects the company’s ongoing exploration of connection\, identity\, and the evolving nature of love.

SUMMARY:THE SWALLOW
DESCRIPTION:Open Space Arts presents THE SWALLOW\, an intimate and deeply moving two-character drama by internationally produced Catalan playwright Guillem Clua\, author of SMILEY\, which Open Space Arts presented in a successful extended run in June and July 2026. \nFeaturing Michelle McKenzie-Voigt and Jim Nally\, THE SWALLOW is set during a private singing lesson between a choral director and a new student. As they work together on a song\, what initially seems like a simple musical exchange becomes something more personal\, more complicated\, and more revealing. \nWith humor\, tension\, and emotional precision\, the play explores grief\, memory\, family\, faith\, identity\, and the stories people tell in order to survive. Music becomes both a refuge and a doorway\, allowing two strangers to move toward truths that have been difficult to face. \nTHE SWALLOW is a powerful theatrical encounter about loss\, compassion\, and the possibility of connection when people are willing to listen. \nPerformance Schedule \nTHE SWALLOW runs September 11–27\, 2026\, with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 PM and Sundays at 3:00 PM. \nA possible extension would run October 2–18\, 2026\, with the same performance schedule: Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 PM and Sundays at 3:00 PM.

SUMMARY:The Capulets
DESCRIPTION:Following its gripping world premiere in 2025\, Chicago Repertory Ballet proudly brings back The Capulets for a limited return engagement this November.\nConceived and choreographed by Wade Schaaf\, this cinematic\, full-length ballet shifts the spotlight from the star-crossed lovers to the heart of the Capulet household itself—where hidden passions\, betrayals\, and fractures simmer just beneath the surface of Verona’s most powerful family. \nSet to an evocative original score by Matty Mattsson and brought to life through immersive projection design by SPAN Design\, the production centers on Lady Capulet — trapped between duty and desire — as her secret relationship with Tybalt threatens to unravel everything her family has built. Against a backdrop of violence\, ambition\, and mounting tension\, The Capulets delivers an emotionally charged experience unlike any traditional telling of the classic tragedy. \nLocation: The Ruth Page Center for the Arts \nThursday\, Nov 5 – 7:30 PM\nFriday\, Nov 6 – 7:30 PM\nSaturday\, Nov 7 – 7:30 PM\nSunday\, Nov 8 – 2:00 PM\nRuntime: ~75 min including a 20-minute intermission \nTickets: $40 – $75\nTickets available on our website WWW.CRBDANCE.COM \nFor wheelchair accessible seating or group ticket sale questions please email: tickets@chicagorepertoryballet.com

SUMMARY:JERKER
DESCRIPTION:Funny\, sexually explicit\, provocative\, and unexpectedly tender\, Robert Chesley’s JERKER remains one of the most remarkable works to emerge from the AIDS era. First produced in 1986\, the play begins with two men connecting through telephone sex. They have never met. They know very little about each other. Their conversations are anonymous\, imaginative\, playful\, and often outrageously erotic. \nAs they continue calling\, however\, something begins to change. Between the fantasies and sexual games\, the men reveal fragments of their everyday lives\, their insecurities\, their humor\, and their growing affection. Without ever sharing a physical space\, they begin to create something that looks remarkably like a relationship. \nAnd outside those conversations\, the AIDS epidemic is transforming their world. \nChesley\, who died of AIDS-related complications in 1990\, was an outspoken defender of gay sexuality at a moment when fear and shame dominated much of the public conversation about gay men. \nRather than retreat from sexual expression\, he placed it at the very center of his work. He insisted that pleasure\, desire\, laughter\, and intimacy were essential parts of gay life and deserved to be celebrated\, even in the shadow of death. \nThat insistence made JERKER controversial. It also made the play revolutionary. \nBut what may surprise contemporary audiences most isn’t its explicit language or sexual frankness. It is the tenderness of the relationship that gradually emerges. \nBeneath its provocative surface\, JERKER is a profoundly human story about loneliness\, companionship\, vulnerability\, and the courage it takes to love another person. \nRobert Chesley was among the first American playwrights to confront the AIDS crisis directly. His groundbreaking NIGHT SWEAT (1984) was one of the earliest full-length plays about AIDS. Two years later\, JERKER challenged censorship and conventional attitudes toward gay sexuality\, insisting that intimacy\, desire\, and love remain essential even in the face of death. Chesley died of AIDS-related complications in 1990 at age 47. This 40th-anniversary production honors both his artistic legacy and the generation whose lives he documented. \nFor this special 40th-anniversary production\, Open Space Arts brings together Jason Bowen and Joshua Bowen\, who are husbands in real life. Jason’s Chicago theater career includes founding Quest Theatre Ensemble\, and his performance credits include the national tour of Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue. Joshua is an actor\, producer\, and entertainment attorney. \nTheir real-life relationship adds another dimension to Chesley’s exploration of intimacy and connection. And in a theater where just 25 audience members sit only a few feet from the performers\, every laugh\, hesitation\, confession\, and moment of tenderness becomes immediate and personal. \nForty years after its premiere\, JERKER continues to challenge us. But it also offers something wonderfully simple: the chance to witness two people discovering that what began as sex has become love. \nJERKER contains explicit sexual language\, mature themes\, and partial nudity. Recommended for adult audiences.

SUMMARY:Another Medea by Aaron Mark
DESCRIPTION:The scarily charming Marcus Sharp recounts his fixation on Jason\, a wealthy doctor and the Medea myth that consumes them both. As confession gives way to obsession\, ancient mythology threatens to collide with a bloody reality.

I was personally moved beyond words at how vividly the prose was woven into a story… Schooler is such a remarkable presence. He invites you on a journey and you fully follow him down every twist\, turn\, and rabbit hole to the conclusion…” – Plays with Jon and Wendy  \nPreviously produced in 2025 as part of the IndyFringe Festival\, American Lives Theatre is thrilled to bring this haunting one-man-show to Chicago audiences. Directed by Jacob David Lang\, starring Lukas Schooler\, produced by American Lives Theatre. Performing at the Bramble Arts Loft from November 5 – November 15.

SUMMARY:The Factory Theater Presents the World Premiere of “Radical Futures\,” October 9 - November 21
DESCRIPTION:The Factory Theater and Artistic Director Michael Jones are proud to announce the first production of its 32nd season\, the world premiere of B.Z Florida’s Radical Futures\, directed by Kayla Menz\, October 9 – November 21 at The Factory Theater\, 1623 W. Howard St. \nForged in Factory Theater’s workshop\, Radical Futures showcases a genre not often explored on the Factory stage. In a failing dive bar\, two estranged friends try to reconnect over hallucinogenic cocktails that trigger visions of tomorrow. As these sci-fi visions grow wilder and more intense\, one question looms large: Does their friendship have a future? B.Z Florida’s play is a flight of science fiction about the relationships of today and different futures of tomorrow. \nThe performance schedule is Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. Tickets are on sale at TheFactoryTheater.com for $30.

SUMMARY:Constellations
DESCRIPTION:Two same-sex casts will perform CONSTELLATIONS\, by Nick Payne. the play\, which premiered in London in 2012 and was presented on Broadway in 2015\, explores the relationship between a physicist and a beekeeper through a series of fragmented\, nonlinear scenes that reflect the concept of the multiverse—the idea that multiple versions of reality exist simultaneously. It presents different variations of their interactions\, showing how small choices can lead to vastly different outcomes. Some versions of their relationship are filled with love and happiness\, while others are marked by heartbreak and tragedy. \nWhile CONSTELLATIONS was originally written with its characters being a man and a woman\, a London revival in 2021 performed it with a cast of two men\, alternating with three different casts of a man and a woman. For this production\, PrideArts will take this concept a step further\, not only by performing it with a female-female cast as well as with a male-male cast\, but also by having the two casts co-directed by a male-female team of two directors – PrideArts’ Artistic Director Jay Españo and Managing Director Amber Mandley. The two casts will alternate performances per the schedule listed at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/constellations-5
