Dear Anne,
Shattered Globe delves into the dark world of 1930s Hollywood gossip in the Chicago Premiere of noir thriller HYDE IN HOLLYWOOD. In his review of the 1989 off-Broadway premiere, New York Times critic Frank Rich says, "Though his play is bounded by glittering Brown Derby dinners and Grauman's Chinese premieres of The Wizard of Oz and The Women, Mr. Parnell quickly rips through the M-G-M tinsel to dramatize the private cowardice of movie makers all too willing to knuckle under to the reactionary politics of a Louella Parsons or the severe prejudices of scandal-hungry ticket buyers."
Shattered Globe welcomes back ensemble member Steve Key (most recently seen in Execution of Justice at About Face Theatre and Vigils at the Goodman) as title character Julian Hyde in a production you won't want to miss!
