In Chicago’s Edgewater neighborhood a new theater group is presenting Shakespeare’s classic Romeo and Juliet in an unconventional venue: a pub. Specifically the free performances are happening on the large patio of Moody’s Pub at 5910 N Broadway. Director Ned Baker and Rabid Bat Theatricals have six performances left in the run: August 14, 19, 20, 21, 26 and 27.
