About the Show

WBEZ proudly presents Mortified Live: Love Hurts – Valentine’s Day Edition. Join us for a night of humorous storytelling from everyday people in Chicago. We’ve all experienced some embarrassment in our lifetime. Come out and commiserate over some cold beverages at the historic Athenaeum Center.

This February, we’ll celebrate the pinnacle of humiliating holidays, Valentine’s Day. Witness “personal redemption through public humiliation” in a refreshing show that finds people reading aloud their most embarrassing, pathetic, and private teenage diary entries, poems, love letters, lyrics, and locker notes in front of total strangers. A show that’s equal parts comedic, cathartic and voyeuristic, Mortified is the largest and longest running project of its kind, featuring a cast of Chicago’s bravest souls and the Mortified Band performing some of your favorite guilty pleasures! Share the shame!

Dante 360

Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost.” 

And so we all begin—in darkness.

Join Dante on his most famous journey through the depths of hell, levels upon levels of purgatory, finally discovering the light and glory of paradise. You will find terror in the wild beasts he meets along the way; and only moments later great hope at the strong woman, Beatrice, who leads him always upwards.

This contemporary staged performances of one of the most epic stories of the western world is an immersive, multi-dimensional production that leads you into Dantes universe. Returning to the stage for the 4th year, this year’s production.

Its heaven. It’s hell. But above all, it’s worth the trip.
