Solo Sunday is thrilled to present a wide variety of productions and performers, from Chicago and beyond. Every month brings an all-new show. You may take in an acclaimed touring fringe festival show, a stunning musical performance, a riveting account of Chicago history, a hilarious comedic monologue, a heartbreaking family story, and so much more.
On select Sundays, we gather in an upstairs dining room at Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro in North Center for solo performance in a space so intimate and personal that shows feel like private performances.
Arrive early for a pre-show meal from the bistro's acclaimed menu, often accompanied by a live Irish music session, or make an evening of it with post-show drinks and conversation.

Get F*cked
By Suzie Campbell September 22nd @ 6:30 PM Suzie just wanted to get fucked, but having a hysterectomy to treat pre cervical cancer at 35 years old didn't make it easy. This is the story of a single mom’s journey of self exploration after the surgery that changed her body forever, and recounts her quest to have sex before her impending surgery and her subsequent sexual awakening. |
Suzie Campbell is a single mom living in Evanston, IL with her two children. A Loyola University Chicago alum with a degree in Sociology and Women’s Studies, she now works as an Salesforce Manager for a non-profit company. Suzie started telling stories about her life after her hysterectomy at 35 years old and has been seen at storytelling shows such as Story Colliders, Is This A Thing?, Pour One Out, and Filet of Solo. Suzie shares stories that often show that reproductive journeys are not always linear, sexuality is not always straightforward, and that seeking support for mental health treatment - especially in relation to motherhood - isn’t something shameful. She believes if more people talk about these ideas openly, the stigma around them will decrease over time.
