Four major stars, three plays, one major cover band ... and four iconic venues!  This week on the show, Andrea talks to the stars of "Holiday" at the Goodman Theatre, "Birds of North America" at the Red Orchid Theatre, "Dance of Death" at the Steppenwolf and Arrival from Sweden: the music of ABBA - performing at the Auditorium Theatre. 


First up, Andrea visits with the legendary Jeff Perry, one of the stars of "Dance of Death" at the Steppenwolf Theatre!  Jeff talks about the 50th anniversary of the theatre he co-founded and the camaraderie and deep friendships amongst the ensemble members. Jeff talks about the themes in "Dance of Death", the characters you love (to hate) and why we all can relate to this play!  Runs through 3/22.  Tickets and information:  steppenwolf.org


Next, Andrea visits with John Judd, one of the stars of A Red Orchid Theatre's "Birds of North America."  Andrea talks to John about birding, father/daughter relationships and how we should hold our family and loved ones close, despite our diffences and opinions. Runs through 3/8.  Tickets and information:  aredorchidtheatre.org


Then, it's a Holiday you'll want to attend!  Andrea talks to two of the stars of "Holiday" - Luigi Sottile and Jordan Lage - now playing at the Goodman Theatre through March 1st.  Luigi stars as Johnny Case and Jordan stars as Edward Seton.  Both talk about family dynamics and relationships, as they reinvent this 1930's classic, which begs the question: Do we 'live to work' or 'work to live'?  Runs through March 1st.  Tickets and information: goodmantheatre.org


Finally - ABBA is back!  Rather, their music is back!  "Arrival from Sweden" returns to the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago for one night only as "the only certifed ABBA cover band" bring you timeless classics like "Dancing Queen", "Mamma Mia", "Money, Money, Money" and "The Winner Takes It All"!  Andrea talks to Vicky Zetterberg and Madelene Johansson about this unbelievable show!  February 6th- tickets and information: auditoriumtheatre.org
