What a great production of a play that mixes history and entertainment in a seamless blend. Well acted, well written and completely entertaining. Go see it.
Excellent production: From the acting, directing, staging, set design...and most importantly, the subject matter... Do not miss OSLO!
Exceptional performances! Comfortable and intimate venue. Highly recommend both the play, the Timeline company of actors and the theatre.
timeline always does an excellent job with thought-provoking material.
I was interested in seeing Oslo given all of its award-buzz. I went in cautiously optimistic to see a play about the Palestine-Israel conflict within the narrative framework of the Oslo Accords. I was disappointed to see a story through the lens of white-saviors that reliably treads the wrongheaded ideas of PEP (progressive except on Palestine) liberals who pat themselves on the back for being “balanced”: equating the rocks of Palestinians with the military grade weapons of the Israelis, painting the occupied and oppressed Palestinians as terrorists, and glossing over much of the factual history and documented aggressions and treaty violations of Israel. Good acting, some punchy dialogue, and occasional humorous moments fail to make up for the warped foundation that misrepresents the true beginning and dynamics of the conflict.
Excellent script, superb acting. Loved every minute.
The play was beautifully portrayed with balance and insight. It was at once profound, fun, informative and insightful
It explained the back story of an historical event in an awesome way
Fascinating story! Acting was surpurb! Totally enjoyed it!
Oslo surpassed my expectations by a long shot. The cast was engaging and the storyline inspiring. I highly recommend it !
Great ensemble of actors for this show. So nice to see Broadway in Chicago showcasing Chicago talent. About time!
This play was so well done. The acting was superb, the story and what happened in Oslo is historical. The events were portrayed in a riveting and entertaining way. I’m not sure we’ll ever see peace between Palestinians and Israelis in my lifetime but I left there with hope because of what they accomplished in such a short time. I hope because of what was accomplished in Oslo.
Wonderful location for the theater with easy discounted parking. The play was amazing, both the story and the actors. Don’t shy away from the theme. It was engrossing and moving. Brought tears to my eyes.
Fascinating story about a promising agreement, argued and debated thoroughly, that could and should have been a roadmap to peace in the Middle East. Shortest three hours ever. Fabulous casting. Well written. See it
This is an excellent history lesson of many of the events that lead up to the Oslo Accords. Acting is fantastic and extremely creative use of video to project various scenes. Well worth the money. Glad we had the opportunity to see this fantastic play
Oslo is about the secret meetings held by Israel and the PLO that lead up to the signing of a peace accord between the two entities. These meetings were not sanctioned by either entity but they produced a peace treaty that put aside some of the disagreements that kept them fighting for so many years. It is historically accurate but still entertaining.
