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.
Our Next Production
Nick Narcisi was an actor before the pandemic. Now he works at a cancer research laboratory. (He is as surprised with that career pivot as you are.) He was really good at telling other people's stories, but only recently started telling his own. Some of his favorite credits include: Romeo in Romeo and Juliet (Arkansas Shakespeare Theater), Stanley in A Streetcar Named Desire (Tennessee Williams Festival of St. Louis), Ethan in Sex with Strangers (Renaissance Theaterworks), A. of Syracuse in Comedy of Errors (Montana Shakespeare in the Parks), and Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice (Macklanburg Playhouse). He has also worked with the Milwaukee Rep, the Great River Shakespeare Festival, Third Avenue Playworks, and the Children's Theater of Madison. Nick is a Moth StorySlam winner and has worked with a variety of other storytelling shows in Chicago and Milwaukee.
