2. In Person – During our June production of Don Juan in Chicago (June 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28) you may purchase tickets in the lobby before each performance. Cash or check only.

Season tickets guarantee you the same seat, which you pick when you buy the tickets, for one performance of each of the 4 plays for the season. Buying season tickets also allows you to avoid waiting in line to buy tickets on show night, but rather walk right in and look around the lobby or get comfortable in your seat.

We will update the season page with audition dates as they are announced.

Without further ado, here is season 67:
