100 YEARS OF THEATRE IN CHICAGO

The Celebration of the Century - a message from the dean

We’ve had an incredible year of centennial celebrations, and the best is still to come! This November, we invite you to return to campus for Homecoming Weekend and our Centennial Gala. From November 12–15, alumni and friends will gather for a weekend filled with reconnection, reflection, and celebration. Highlights include our first-ever immersive production, The Lieutenant’s Dream, special performances, workshops, and community events. The festivities culminate in our Centennial Gala—a night to honor our shared history and look towards the next 100 years of The Theatre School. We can’t wait to welcome you back home this fall!
