If you were ever obsessed (mildly or otherwise) with Hedwig and the Angry Inch, you’ll want to check out 33 to Nothing. Playwright Grant Varjas’ music-propelled play includes eight bona fide rock songs, from head-banging ragers to anthemic love ballads. (Everybody gets earplugs along with programs.) The plot follows the fate of a band composed of two lesbians and two gay men. The lesbians are growing up and moving on—ehe gay guys, not so much. Adding to the real feel: Everyone in the cast plays their own instruments, taking their rhythmic cues from the mighty percussion of Jeff Kurysz. Through May 27. A Red Orchid theatre, 1531 N. Wells. $30-$35: ARedOrchidtheatre.org. CES
