Some interesting effects, but not worth the ticket price. Sound system was not good.

by BIGRadioheadFan on 10/1/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoWatching Radiolab live was everything you could imagine in your mind and more. Interesting, interactive, and a few surprises. Jad & Robert and their guests were great together. Also, the live band was an added plus.
Rating: 4 out of 5by RWalter on 10/1/12The Chicago Theatre - Chicago I liked seeing Robt. Krullwich and Jad Abumrad in person! They were as engaging and funny in person as on the radio. Pilobus added some visual interest and I enjoyed the music. I wasn't as crazy about the topic! If it were on a podcast I wouldn't have selected it. It was great and fun to see how they managed a visual performance of what is typically an audio broadcast.

by MaryAnn1234 on 10/1/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoBeen a fan of Radiolab for years now, and to see a show live was incredible. It was sensory overload in the most entertaining way possible. I wish I could see a show weekly, but for now I'll just stick to the podcasts. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful show.

Rating: 4 out of 5 Awesome Experience
by elvagabundo on 10/1/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoReally liked the show and if I had to complain about anything it would be that while I really liked how the dance troop was incorporated into the stories, it seemed like during actual dance numbers they were torn between making themselves or the shadows the focus of their routine. They were really great though and this was a pretty minor beef. Overall it was a great time and really interesting to see a show that I often experience through earbuds come to life on the stage
Rating: 5 out of 5 Radiolab Chicago Experience
by kmani on 10/1/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoThe show was entertaining, informative, and inspiring as always, but for the first time, I was able to view it instead of listening online. The dance troup Pilobolous was intriguing, funny, and visually stunning and creative, and Tau Wyn's songs were great, and of course Jad and and Robert were charming as always! One of the best show's I've seen in a long time!

Rating: 3 out of 5 Still a fan, but disappointed
by Punditius on 9/30/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoLet's start with the "comedian" in the bluejacket. He came out & immediate displayed his superficial knowledge about anthropogenic global warming - of course, he doesn't remember the last consensus about "global cooling". But at least that, and the evolution spiel bore some relation to science. Perhaps the penis jokes did, too, but c'mon. I paid my money to see & hear you, not some potty-mouth second rate comic. And the business about putting the eyeballs over your heads is funny at the elementary school level - it was simply stupid. The show itself was uneven. The evolution of the eyeball was okay, and should be a part of any 8th grade science class. It seemed dumbed down. The colloquy with the two blind men was better. I had my son with me and we had an interesting discussion about it on the way home - he pointed out the Matrix angle which I missed. The last segment was great for content. But the lights were a little hokey. BTW the collection boxes were nowhere to be seen coming out of the mezzanine seats The staging was not what I expected. Maybe it's just a matter of money. All in all, nowhere near what I'd hoped for, and not really worth the price of good seats.
