LOOPTOPIA-
Your Looptopia guide
An hour-by-hour plan
April 25, 2008
We know, we know ... Looptopia's back May 2. So plan ahead, with our help.
Last year you were cold, you couldn't get in for any of the events and when you headed for the Chicago Cultural Center at midnight, it was shut down. We were there. We feel your pain. When "Opera Idol" is at capacity a half-hour before the event starts, there's some weirdness going on. "We didn't know how many people were going to show up [last year]," says Ty Tabing, of the Chicago Loop Alliance, the party planners for this bash. "Awareness built in this kind of crescendo." This year's theme, to us, is more: security to keep things cool, toilets to keep alleyways dry, events after midnight to prevent a single place being mobbed. And wristbands. If you're planning to attend an event after midnight, you will need to get a wristband from one of the Looptopia information booths. The objective is to prevent the clubs emptying out and the Loop filling up. Tabing says the goal this year is to be more about arts and culture. But what you're thinking is "Hey, I just want to get in somewhere." Gotcha. Here's our hour-by-hour list of what you should do, with our top pick and an alternative (when possible), in case the main event is mobbed.
pHamily the Musical!, 8-8:30 p.m., Chicago Cultural Center, 78 E. Washington St. A fully improvised musical about family dynamics—or the lack thereof. An adaptation of the pH Productions show performed late-night Fridays at Stage Left Theatre in Lakeview. And best of all, a chance to put the messy train wreck of your own life on stage in the form of an audience suggestion.
