On select Sunday afternoons, an upstairs room at Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro in North Center is magically transformed into The Jekot Theater, a beautiful 46-seat theater so intimate and personal that shows feel like private performances.
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.
Arrive early for a pre-show meal from the bistro's acclaimed menu, accompanied by a live Irish music session, or make an evening of it with post-show drinks and conversation.
