Description

From its first modest production on a pub roof in Lincoln Park, the Chicago Shakespeare Theater has blossomed into a prolific and popular theater institution. The $24 million, multi-venue facility on Navy Pier serves as proof that the company is leading the way in the city's cultural renaissance. With its Shakespeare Repertory Company acting troupe, the theater offers a savory schedule of theatrical performances ranging from the traditional classics from the Bard to more recent period productions. The seven-story structure offers a courtyard-style theater, panoramic views of the Chicago skyline.
