Chester Theatre Company announces two unique travel experiences for theatre lovers: The 2016 Theatre Tour to Chicago,October 18-23, 2016, and the 2017 Theatre Tour to London, March 11-19.

Producing Artistic Director Daniel Elihu Kramer leads the tours. "Years of experience have helped us find the optimum balance between structured and free time," he said. "We see amazing plays, but we don't schedule people's every minute. We give them time to explore these exciting cities on their own between productions and lively TalkBacks."

Of the TalkBacks, Kramer added, "Previous tour participants tell us the TalkBacks make the trip truly memorable, helping them gain insight into the craft of theatre and changing their theatre-going experience forever."

Highlights of the Chicago trip include:
• Six days and five nights in Chicago
• Nonstop flight from Western Massachusetts

• Welcome banquet
• Daily full breakfast

The cost for the trip with land and air is $2,800 per person, double occupancy. The land-only cost is $2,400-per person. Sign-ups close the end of August.

• Eight days and seven nights in London
