Top 8 Performances in Lake View, Illinois (IL)
The windy city is a cornucopia of modern art, fine dining, cutting edge comedy, and die-hard sports fans. Snap a photo of your reflection in the silver Cloud Gate sculpture at Millennium Park before heading to Grant Park to get hit with the refreshing spray of Buckingham Fountain. There are dozens of museums and theater companies in Chicago, so a cultural experience is never hard to find. You’re sure to laugh your head off at the Second City Theater, the professional launch pad of many famous comedians.

Chicago's most entertaining magic show. Fun, intimate, sometimes outrageous, and always hilarious. Plus BYOB.
Reviewed By Balanger - Chicago, United States
When in you life have you seen live magic less than 5 feet from you? This up close and magical show is both funny, clever and vastly entertaining. Set in a cozy, 24 seat living room styled theater I was delighted by the skill of Aaron (the magician) and surprised by the sheer comedic timing. You cannot go wrong with this intimate entertainment site. There is alot of magic happening in Chicago these days but this is completely different than the other magical shows in the city!

BMG is a unique show, one that everyone should try to experience at least once. Kids 6 or 7 enjoy it, and the 90-year old next to me laughed so hard he was almost crying. The performers convey an impressive span of emotion via movement and eyes -- nothing is verbalized. We've seen BMG three times, but the last time was maybe 15 years ago -- quite a while back. The basics of the show remain the same, but even if all the material isn't completely fresh it's still impressive. The reviews that complain about the show scaling back a bit from the past (a slightly less-impressive finale, a little less action) may technically be correct, but we enjoyed the show as much now as the first time we saw it. Highly recommended.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 206 reviews
Considered one of the hottest tickets in town and an excellent theatre/dinner ticket value, Tony n’ Tina’s Wedding is an all-inclusive night of entertainment presented with the 1980’s throwback feel of the original NYC production. A hilarious, full wedding experience from the I do’s to the buffet to the bouquet toss Tony n’ Tina’s Wedding will not disappoint!
