Ninja Sex Party changed my life. Not sure if the theater lacked AC, or if NSP just gets me hot.

Wonderful location in Downtown Chicago. You are truly in the center of Millennium Park. You are within walking distance of The Bean as well as other wonderful spots for tourists.

The box office is on the Randolph Street level of the theater. You will see it straight ahead of you, if you use the main entrance.

Does anyone now what is the usual temperature inside the theater? Is it usually cold or does it feel like a sauna?

It really depends on where you sit. The lower floors tend to be cooler than the balconies, which can become quite warm as the evening progresses. Also, I've noticed that the temperature warms up and then cools diwn as the air handlers cycle on and off. Usually I sit on the orchestra level and feel fine in a long sleeved flannel dress with either a turtleneck of t-shirt weight, or just a long-sleeved t-shirt under it. Up in the balconies I never wear more than 1 layer, but keep a lightweight scarf over my shoulders until the heat from the audience members takes its inevitable effect.

Harris Theatre shares backstage space with Pritzker Pavilion; both were built in 2006. Harris was designed by the architecture firm of Hammond, Beeby, Rupert & Ainge, which is now known as HBRA. Pritzker Pavilion was designed by Frank Gehry. The lights in Harris were designed by the prize-winning artist Dan Flavin.

When bringing children, what age do you have to pay for a ticket? I plan on bringing a 3 year old but she will sit on my lap for a show. Do I still have to purchase a ticket for her?

The show i attended, children under the age of 4 not allowed. If children allowed, all must have a ticket!! Here is their FAQ. CAN I BRING MY CHILDREN? Children eight years old and over are welcome at most performances. There are a number of family programs throughout the season which may be appropriate for younger children. You may inquire with the box office about age appropriateness for particular programs. Please note that all attendees, regardless of age, must have a ticket. Any individual disrupting the performance in any way will be asked to leave the theater.

Can you purchase tickets at the box office on the same day as performance?

There is a parking lot connected to the building. I don't know the fees. But you can walk right into the Harris from that garage.

M-F, noon to 6pm

public transportation from northbrook ill on Sunday

Using Google's public transit option is the best because you'll need to use some combination of Metra and CTA bus and walking, to and from Harris. You can set Google for arrival times (like arrive at Harris 15 minutes before the show). Just note that on Sundays the last train usually leaves the Loop around midnight. Make sure you don't get stranded!
