Every year, in the coldest depths of the winter, Chicago Theatre Week gives us a great reason to venture outside. The annual event runs from February 16 to 26, taking over stages throughout the city—from major regional hubs like the Goodman Theatre and Broadway in Chicago to intimate spaces such as Redtwist Theatre and Lifeline Theatre. During Chicago Theatre Week, these companies offer tickets priced at $15 or $30 (or sometimes less!). You can browse a complete list of participating shows online, but we sifted through the lineup and handpicked the ones you should absolutely check out this year. But first, a few basics for the uninitiated.
