A young man with a secret. An older woman who will listen. A predatory flock of birds. An upcoming audition for The Wizard of Oz. Welcome to You Will Get Sick, a wildly imaginative new play that traces the touching, hilarious, heartbreaking saga of one man鈥檚 illness and his unlikely caretaker鈥檚 pursuit of her dreams.
Admired as 鈥渓ively, surreal and surprising鈥� by The New York Times, Noah Diaz鈥檚 Chicago debut is equal parts comedy, form-bending experiment and sober meditation on mortality. Renowned ensemble member Amy Morton (a Tony nominee for August: Osage County and Edward Albee鈥檚 Who鈥檚 Afraid of Virginia Woolf?) returns to the Steppenwolf stage for the first time in over a decade, making this season finale a must-see experience!
