There are multiple reports about the Chicago exhibit on the board. Have you done a search for them? They have been posted recently; I know, as I have been considering going to the upcoming exhibit in Philly and looked for the Chicago reviews here in the past week or so.

If you put "Tut" in the search box, the first post that comes up has several reviews from the Chicago exhibit.

My wife and I have been to the exhibit in Chicago and thoroughly enjoyed it. If you're in to Tut history, you will appreciate the artifacts displayed there. Be sure and rent the earphones with tape recordings for the various exhibits.

Hope you enjoy as well.

As I posted on another Tut thread, I was underwhelmed by the exhibit. Fortunately, I had a free ticket, because I don't think it's worth the $25 admission price. While the accompanying audio was helpful, it also was underwhelming.

There was an interesting article about the exhibit a couple of days ago in the Tribune
