The Auditorium Theatre at Chicago will host the play, shows scheduled between October 16 and 25. You don't want to miss this side-splitting dog-and-human comedy that will soon be gracing venues near you.

“Man's Best Friend”

Sylvia is a tale about a “man's best friend”, a dog. Taking the age-old proverb quite literally, the drama depicts a middle class couple, Kate and Greg, battling the mid-life crisis until they have a new member at home. No not a baby, but an adorable pooch that Greg stumbles upon while he goes for a walk at Central Park. Promptly adopted and named Sylvia, Greg brings the dog home which gradually becomes his confidant. Jealous of the attention her husband bestows upon Sylvia, Kate can't resist but hate the innocent canine to the point where she starts plotting to get rid of her. The light-hearted drama brings the audience to a gripping climax where Grecg finally has to make a choice between the two females in his life.

“Sylvia” Commands the Tonys

One of the most humorous of all shows coming to Broadway this year, “Sylvia” brings the best of a star cast. A troika of Tony Award winners are coming together to perform as the three main characters in the drama. The anthropomorphic Sylvia will be played by Annaleigh Ashford, one of the most entertaining and talented comic actresses in theatre today. Ashford succeeds Sarah Jessica Parker in the coveted role that the latter actress played in 1995. Julie White, “The Little Dog Laughed” actress seems to have a thing for dogs. “Sylvia” would probably become White's second play that has something to do with the faithful animal. White was an active member of the panel that selected the dog at Daryl Roth, which shows her love for them, but ironically plays the detesting Kate on stage. Last but not the least, Tony Award winner Matthew Broderick plays the helpless hubby, Greg.

A Broadway Breakthrough

Entertaining theatergoers for more than a decade, “Sylvia” attains a much-awaited breakthrough with a Broadway appearance. Directed by Daniel Sullivan, A.R. Gurney cleverly brings out the whimsical dynamics of an otherwise lackluster marital relationship. With set designs by David Rockwell, lighting by Japhy Weidman and costumes by none other than Ann Roth, “Sylvia” is ready to wow the audience at New York and Chicago this year. There's no reason to miss this exciting comedy especially when it comes to your city!
