Suggestions for Theater near Lakeview, Chicago

Cindy H. • March 19, 2012Buy your tickets same day of the show at HotTix. They're half off! Also, you can bring your drinks/food into the theater.

C R. • December 28, 2015Intimate live theater in the "sophisticated" Southport Corridor. Saw the Christmas Schooner and would recommend to anyone looking for a holiday classic. No concessions but lots of options close by.

✞CONSTANTINE ✞ • March 27, 2014The video was clear and stutter free. I hear they have a 4k or ultra-HD setup. Audio, contrary to gripes I've read in a few other reviews, seemed perfectly fine really... I love this place...

Alysha B. • April 25, 2014Beautiful space. Unique and versatile, a definite asset to the theatre community. I look forward to seeing more shows there.

David E. • January 9, 2015They do have a few snacks, and you can take drinks into the theater. Street parking zone ends at 10 p.m. too.

David W. • November 3, 2019Great theater in Lakeview. Unique vibe.

Nikki C. • October 28, 2012For splat, get a table in the middle. Blood everywhere on stage . Highly recommend this theatre! Going back again ASAP. Make sure to also grab a board game of the shelf for fun .

Nigel R. • February 3, 2023Theatre Thursday. "Boulevard of Bold Dreams". Oscars time of year. @TimeLineTheatre

Joanna F. • April 11, 2014Great little comedy theater with a nice bar in front.

SPIN • July 19, 2011Pete Wentz calls this his favorite movie theater because it's quirky and different with a little bit of a history. Bank robber John Dillinger was killed here by the FBI in 1934.

Jennifer S. • March 21, 2012Such a great little improv comedy hole. Best part? It's BYOB!

Lisa S. • October 17, 2015Well organized comfortable theater!

Leslie I. • April 19, 2013Saw the Burlesque Show...very good. Small theater. Nice to help out the performng arts.

Redeye Chicago • August 3, 2014There may be no prouder accomplishment for a Chicago band than headlining at this legendary theater, which has hosted countless famous acts in its 30-plus-year history.

Dana J. • December 15, 2014I've been to some amazing concerts here. It's nice that there's a ton of seating on the balcony, though it means the fairly small floor can be horribly over-packed. Practically next to the L.

Alan G. • December 1, 2013Silent version of Christmas Carol was really good. Very unique treatment of classic story.

Kayce A. • October 23, 2011Fun, cheap AND byob?! Sweet!

Social N. • August 2, 2013Great selection of drinks--sodas, beers, coffee--that you can take in to the theater. Nice intimate space to see plays. Chairs are very squeaky, though.

Cristian L. • December 16, 2016It's a beautiful theater. Park in the Millenium Park Garage for a convenient underground entrance (and to avoid the cold in the winter!)

Shannon J. • November 15, 2021They do smaller plays in this theater.

Robert A. • October 6, 2015They do amazing children's interactive theater, my kids love it every time.
