A live gameshow, Don't Spit the Water, at the Playground Theater sees unwitting audience members plucked from the safety of their seats and thrown into a comedic melee. Each contestant fills their mouth with water and must avoid laughing and spitting it out while the rotating comedians try everything in their power to make them do just that.

The Field Museum's new exhibit takes visitors on a four-billion year tour through the history of life on Earth. Much more than simply a dinosaur exhibition, Evolving Planet contains unique fossils, animated videos, hands-on interactive displays and recreations of sea and landscapes that both educate and entertain.

Shear Madness has played for more than 10,000 performances in Boston, making it a record-breaking comedy. Now the show returns to Chicago to play at the 250-seat Chicago Theatre.

At Mirai you can dine on sushi washed down with cocktails and a wide selection of sake, followed by a trip to the futuristically-fashioned upstairs lounge, where you can nod your head to an eclectic mix of sounds provided by a selection of DJs.
