The Empire Brings Sexy Back: A Star Wars Burlesque Bucktown | Through September 13 Lightsabers, wookies, and that scoundrel Boba Fett get a titillating treatment at Gorilla Tango Theatre’s burlesque take on The Empire Strikes Back. Sci-fi sexiness is par for the course for the ladies of the Gorilla Tango Burlesque, whose repertoire includes shows based on Star Trek, Super Mario Bros., and The Walking Dead. (1919 N.

Matthew Hoffman debuts Go For It, an enormous wooden installation piece replicating that message in perfect cursive, at Pullman’s Market Hall in partnership with neighborhood organizations Mosnart and the Historic Pullman Foundation. (11159 S. Champlain Ave.; free) Arcade Fire Near West Side | Tuesday, August 26, and Wednesday, August 27 Grammy-winning Canadian indie-rock heroes the Arcade Fire continue their summer tour of the States, bringing their maximalist pop ambitions to the United Center for a two-night stand.
