Newsboy
'Newsboy' is a new play based on Gary D. Cole's acclaimed memoir of his childhood paper route in 1960s and '70s Chicagoland. The play, told as a nearly-solo show by two actors in turn portraying Gary as a young boy and a teenager, is a coming-of-age tale, tracking his growth from sheltered suburban innocent to keen student of the turbulent world around him - and his place in it. Gary shares stories about some of the biggest moments in Chicago and national history gleaned from the newspaper he reads and delivers each morning, as well as cross-generational friendships formed through his paper route, with realism, freshness, and humor.

Fact: Isaac Newton stuck a needle into his own eye. Seriously, he really did that. Before he became one of the world's greatest intellectuals, Isaac Newton was a young man desperate to be taken seriously. His theories about color and light bring him face-to-face with Robert Hooke, renowned scientist and known dog murderer (seriously). As the two men clash over science and ego, Isaac's pursuit for recognition spirals into an increasingly bizarre battle of wits. Funny, filthy, and deeply strange, ISAAC'S EYE gleefully mixes historical fact with outright fantasy, imagining the obsessions, desires, and ambitions that drove a young Isaac Newton toward greatness - and the sacrifices he (might have) made to get there.
