Each monthly event provides audiences with a world premiere production and an inside look at the creative process behind new works, including exclusive access to artists.

Theatre is essential to the life of a great city and to its citizens. The League of Chicago Theatres is an alliance of theatres, which leverages its collective strength to support, promote and advocate for Chicago's theatre industry.
