Chicago Shakespeare Theatre is a wonderful theatre! They present Shakespeare productions, well known and not so well known, of high quality! They also bring in visiting theatre companies from throughout the world. They do shortened versions of various plays for students during the school day, so this is a wonderful place for anyone, old and young alike, to get their Shakespeare on! As an actress, I can attest to them having high quality theatre, but I have seen Shakespeare that I've liked better than at CST. Nonetheless, they have wonderful scenery, wonderful actors, and ticket prices that can fit the needs of anyone. A wonderful place to provide the Midwest with a bit of culture! And while you're at it, you can explore Navy Pier.
