Summary
A review of the new Goodman Theatre musical "Iceboy!," a wacky comedy featuring Nick Offerman as a witty, booze-soaked Eugene O'Neill narrator, Megan Mullally as a Broadway diva, and Sarah Stiles as her scene-stealing maid. The production prioritizes laughs above all else, with the creative team behind "Urinetown" delivering a zany, joke-packed show that blends historical figures with absurdist humor.
