Many couples have confronted the same fundamental question of whether or not they really want kids. The answers often involve pondering major life and possible personality changes. One such Q & A session is at the heart of a new play, The Kid Thing, a co-production of Chicago Dramatists and About Face Theatre. But Eight Forty-Eight had other questions too; like – does the play work? Are central characters, Leigh and Darcy, believable? For answesr to those questions and no doubt more, Eight Forty-Eight turned to the Dueling Critics, Jonathan Abarbanel and Kelly Kleiman.
The Kid Thing, runs at Chicago Dramatists through Oct. 16th.
