MARGARET CHO: CHOLIGARCHY
Jan 23, 2026
A pioneer amongst women in comedy, Margaret doesn’t take anything for granted as she continues to tackle difficult subjects with sensitivity and her razor sharp insight with her takes on addiction, abuse, activism and Asianness. It's all about the politics of disgust and what is disgusting about politics. Margaret has received many rave reviews for her live shows with the Chicago Tribune saying “Be it on-screen (“30 Rock,” “Drop Dead Diva”) or on stage, Margaret Cho has been one of the most exciting, unpredictable stand-up comics working for some time, and that hasn’t changed. If anything, the Asian-American female comedian’s voice has become more valuable than ever, given today’s social climate, and Cho’s material remains just as compelling, thanks in part to—and sometimes in spite of—her unapologetic delivery.”

Rameau—ever the dramatist—draws back the curtain on the theatrical imagination of the French Baroque, where mythology and human complexity intertwine.

RICHARD GOODE PLAYS MOZART
Dec 14, 2025
An evening of musical dialogue unfolds as pianist Richard Goode partners with LACO’s Director of Chamber Music Margaret Batjer. Schumann, writing during one of his fragile yet fervent creative periods, pours a restless inner dialogue into his First Violin Sonata. Mozart’s Piano Quartet in E-flat major is deceptively light; beneath its polished exterior lies a young composer subtly introducing risk into a genre not yet ready for it. Finally, Beethoven’s septet, beloved almost to the point of cliché, feels like a manifesto for community—music that celebrates the ensemble as a metaphor for how individual voices might coexist, challenge, and complete one another.
