I had the pleasure of seeing Sideshow Theatre Company’s production of Heddatron while in Chicago over spring break and was overjoyed to see such a bizarrely hilarious play at the Steppenwolf’s Garage Theatre. Imagine a depressed, pregnant Michigan housewife who gets kidnapped by robots, taken to a forest, and forced to recite Hedda Gabbler with said robots playing the various parts. Supremely entertaining. Check out the review and photos from the show here: http://chicagotheaterblog.com/2011/03/03/heddatron-chicago-review-sideshow-theatre/
