With the support of our community, we can continue to make an impact together.

Chicago Children’s Theatre expresses solidarity with everyone fighting injustice in Chicago and across America.
We are deeply grateful for the expressions of love and support we have received as the crisis forced us to cancel theatre education programming and productions.
