HBO’s Six Feet Under
redefined dark comedy, and, lucky for us, Chicago has inherited some of the
show’s top-tier talent: First there was writer and Northlight Theatre
collaborator Craig Wright; now we’ve scored the play Intrique With Faye
by
Under writer Kate Robin. In a send-up of reality TV—and those of
us who can’t get enough of it—Intrigue
follows a couple who try to repair their relationship following
a bout of infidelity by videotaping their lives. The show runs through June
1st at the Royal
George Theatre Gallery Space(1641 N. Halsted St.;
312-988-9000). Tickets are $15 to $25.
