I think you've convinced me and I live near by. Thanks.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I was a little apprehensive about how my partner would react to this production. He was not a fan of Stoppard's Arcadia, which we saw at the Goodman decades ago -- he liked the turtle but nothing else. Thankfully, he laughed as much as I did yesterday.

I had never seen a production by the Saint Sebastian Players group until yesterday (although they have been an active non-equity theatre for 40 years). They treated my partner and me as if we were royalty. We had a nice chat with some of them afterward. They are a very friendly ensemble.

The Real Inspector Hound reminded me a little of Noises Off, another farce which can be difficult to pull off. Windy City Playhouse did a hilarious production of it just a few years ago in 2018.

I've never seen Saint Sebastian Players. I look forward to it.

As for Windy City Playhouse, I am looking forward to Sons of Hollywood. I loved their immersive production of Boys in the Band. The last show I saw before the pandemic shut down.

Windy City Playhouse is one of our favorite theaters. We've seen several of their shows, most recently The Boys in the Band. We met Danield Kyri, the respected Goodman and Steppenwolf actor (he plays Darren Ritter on Chicago Fire) at one of their productions.

Sons of Hollywood looks really good. We will probably see it some time in February.

The performance standard of the Saint Sebastian Players was on the same level as that of Windy City Playhouse. In fact, we saw an hysterically funny production of Noises Off at their theater in 2018.
