Look For ChiIL Mama This Weekend: Hangin' at Hephaestus, Gettin' Wet at Ragin Waves, Rockin' Do Division, & Cheering On The Blackhawks

We're thrilled to announce that the Lookingglass Theatre production of Hephaestus at The Goodman Theatre has been extended till June 20th.   This is one phantasmagorical show you don't want to miss!   We saw it last night and were extremely impressed and blown away, to say the least.   A full review of the show will be up on ChiIL Mama soon.   Catch it while you can.

Saturday  Do-Division Fest runs for the next 2 days.   This is better than the average bear, with music booked by Empty Bottle Presents and Subterranean / House Call Entertainment, a fun kids area, and a 10 block bonanza of booths, food and drink.   Check out their web site for specifics. 

Highlights:   Saturday at 4:00pm on the Damen Stage--our favorite punk rock children's librarian will be rockin' the guitar in her band CoCoComa.   


These guys are really fun!

Then stick around.  At 5:15 Little Miss Anne Band plays the Family Fun Fest Stage.
















Sunday We're heading down to the sunny south...............45 minutes south west of Chicago in Yorkville, that is.   We'll be makin' a splash at Raging Waves, Illinois' largest water park.   

We'll have a full review, chock fulla photos in the next few days.

Finally, The Chicago Blackhawks play their 5th game of the Stanley Cup Finals Sunday night.   We're tied with The Flyers 2-2.  Go Blackhawks!
