A Regional Tony Award recipient, Chicago Shakespeare Theater produces a bold and innovative year-round season—plays, musicals, world premieres, family productions, and theatrical presentations from around the globe—alongside education programming for students, teachers, and lifelong learners, and engagement with communities across the city.
Founded in 1986, the Theater has evolved to present as many as 20 productions and 650 performances annually and has been honored with numerous awards. Chicago Shakespeare is the city’s leading presenter of international work and has toured its productions to five continents.
