​​The members of Irish Theatre of Chicago are very sorry to have to relay the news that - due to the coronavirus and the consequent closing of the Den Theater until April 12th - our current run of Phillip McMahon's "Pineapple" has been suspended.  
If we are somehow able to resume the production or mount it at a different time or venue, we will be sure to let you know.  We apologize for any inconvenience.
