    Outstanding performances in intimate space. Helpful box office staff and house manager. Nice selection of snacks and beverages in lobby. Free shuttle to parking lot. Close to CTA Morse Red Line L stop. Plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
  • By Brooke ODonnell
    I've been to 4 shows here (one was even a musical) and they always exceed expectations. The seats are narrow and the theater gets cold, but it's really the best community theater I've seen in a long time.
