  4. Absurdity comes out at night in 'Graveyard'

    People do ridiculous things in the middle of the night. Questionable things. Like decide they will shoot the entire season of a Web series — all 14 episodes, with 50 pages of dialogue — before the sun comes up.

  6. The Chicago actor's dilemma: Love Chicago but leave it

    "No actor should be in Chicago 'cause they wanta make money," a character says in "The Last Duck," a new play that includes a brief but pointed look at our Second City complex. "It's more about art," the guy says. "You know, whatever that means. Or you gotta tell yourself that."
