A Chorus Line, through May 3. See Broadway's longest-running American musical now while it's still in town. You won't see a better recreation of Michael Bennett's landmark choreography and staging anytime soon. SCM
Diversey Harbor, Theatre Seven, through May 10. After a successful staging last year, director Brian Golden and his cast revisit Marisa Wegrzyn's moving, funny and wholly compelling tale of four disparate and lonely souls trying to connect over the course of one long, cold night in Chicago. CS
Ghostwritten, Goodman Theatre, through May 3. Naomi Iizuka's new work of magic realism views racial and cultural identity through a fairy tale lens as Rumplestiltskin becomes a Vietnamese female demon. Excellent cast blends comedy and menace. JA
Private Lives, City Lit Theater, through May 3. No one really has to do a thoughtful in-depth production of a Noel Coward play nowadays, but City Lit defies such prejudiced expectations with this smart and funny romantic comedy. MSB
