Great venue for a play. Clyde's very good play

We thoroughly enjoyed the performance of “Clyde’s” on Sun, Sept 18. The play is funny, thought provoking, and timely. So very happy to have had the opportunity to see it performed at the Goodman Theater.

Great atmosphere. Cozy theater and accommodations for Handicap. Love the Goodman

We've enjoyed a number of productions at Goodman. Each one has been inspiring and memorable! The Albert Theater, which seats about 850, is a more traditional theater style in terms of staging, curtains, and seating. Great acoustics, even in the balcony. We especially LOVED the "Brigadoon" production we saw several years ago. The Owen Theater, which seats about 350, is a more contemporary and flexible venue. Intimate space with a close-up feel to the performance. Open seating in stiff chairs. Good acoustics on all sides. We especially LOVED the performances of "The Magic Play" and "The King of the Yees." We have driven in from the suburbs every time because we had an elderly person in our group. Found parking easily just around the corner in parking garage. When it's just the two of us, we will make the pleasant 25-minute walk from the Metra Station. We look forward to returning to both venues soon!

Was goodman theatre ever part of metropolitan art museum ?

Monte Brown | Sep 20, 2020
Goodman Theatre | Sep 20, 2020

The guides are correct! At one time the Goodman Theatre was housed within the Art Institute of Chicago. We moved to our location on Dearborn and Randolph in 2001. The space we formerly occupied at the Art Institute is now where the Modern Wing is located. In fact there is a plaque marking center stage of the old space in the Modern Wing.
