COVID changes a lot, but CCT makes sure our kids can still enjoy a hybrid live theatre experience. Not crazy about being outside in this parking lot venue, but loved the option of being warm in the car.But the unavoidable aside, the sets, music, costumes, puppets and audience participation for Bea-Trix and Treats were creative, beautiful and memorable. Biggest endorsement of all: our 2- and 4-year olds were mesmerized for all 70 minutes of the show.

Amazing theater!! I teach Pre-K and have come here with my students twice now both times have been incredible! Its a small theater so the anxiety of taking a field trip with the little ones is significantly lessened! The show itself is beautiful and well told it keeps the childrens attention. My students LOVED coming here and we will be definitely coming back!

The Children were so happy to come and enjoyed every minute of the show.

It was our first time to the Chicago childrens theater and we saw The Very Hungry Caterpillar and it was magical!! It was beautifully done with puppets and was not too loud, though my nearly 4 year old wore headphones and still enjoyed it. The theater is small and does not overwhelm. We received 3 shows as a gift and I cant wait for the next two.

Thoughtful and charming productions which encourage interaction and imagination. A wonderful introduction to the magic of theatre.

Enjoyed the very hungry caterpillar show today! Very entertaining for the little ones and nice size theater so everyone has great seats.Nice before and after kids activities too.

Weve visited The CCT when it was further north in the city and enjoyed each and every single play that weve seen. Weve also experienced their BOING Fest and enjoyed seeing our children engage their creative sides in a way that we arent able to always do in our home. Mostly because of the clean up!I highly suggest taking your family to see one of their productions as they take great care in them. You wont regret it.

My active 2-year-old grandson was thoroughly entertained by the Very Hungry Caterpillar show as well as the activities provided in the lobby. This was our first visit to Chicago Childrens Theatre, and it wont be the last!

Great play Frederick - our kids (2&4) enjoyed it, we adults loved it too! (We read the book before the show many times (my kids love it!) and I was very surprised how nicely the play was made!! Actors did a great job too. Overall - great experience! Thank you!

Loved the interactive play and how the children were able to participate.

These guys have a gift with children. What they are creating is awesome. Take your kids to see a play.

The staff was amazing, very accommodating and the play, The Watsons Go to Birmingham was amazing!

Great place at a fair price, plenty of parking. Helen our host was GREAT!!!

Great place for young little ones to experience a theater.

We had so much fun at the Beatrix Potter show. Actors were engaging and clearly enjoyed working with the kids as they artfully used music and puppets to tell the stories. Cant wait to return.

Innovative childrens Theatre. Some of the best.

Great for kids of all ages! My kids love theatre camps here! Even my 11-year old committed soccer player has a blast!

Great for children birthday parties! Real nice people

Really nice space that is extremely well designed for kids. They put on high quality productions featuring some of the best talent in the city. Would highly recommend for anyone interested in exposing their children to art at a young age.

My sons class had a field trip to see The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The kids loved the show and the staff was great

Amazing experience!

The show was greatly performed and very educational

Nice, very tight seating and seats are in uncomfortable but nice shows kind of like pre school seats

The show was very good and the actors was really into the play.

Ive been three times, twice for performances and once for a family festival and I found it to be wonderful in all situations all three times that I visited. Free parking. Friendly staff. Excellent shows!

Great play and people. Good place to take your kids.

I highly recommend seeing this play!!

We saw A Year with Frog and Toad this weekend and it was fantastic. My 3 year old daughter, my parents, and I all thoroughly enjoyed it. The story and music were terrific and the actors were incredibly talented.

I have loved every performance we have seen here. This place gets kids. But nothing is dumbed down. Adults enjoy the shows as much as the kids.

Great, age-appropriate experience both in terms of content and duration. Also, really convenient if you get their early enough to get free parking in the lot next to the theatre.

Great for children birthday parties! Real nice people

A darling place for the family, very well done productions for children!

This place looks phenomenal. The Chicago guts of the location is immeasurable. Love it!

Love, love, love this place! Great time had by all!

High quality, professional productions even though the venue is small.

Great place to take little kids. Came with my daughters school to see the play Frederick

An Epic tale of scale is an epic fail.Poor props, lack of plot, lack of vision. I hope no little child who went will think this is theater.I brought my 8 year old to this experience. You go through a series of spaces in smaller groups looking for a thing. We started by walking into a shop full of curious objects with another group. The shop keeper said his lines, to the first group, they were whisked away and... he started his lines from the top to us! As if we were not standing there just now! We were then taken through series of spaces representing the body. The props were best suited for about 3-4 year olds. Think two foot zit climbing wall (not sure why it was inside the stomach) and an intestin bopping table. The elevator was fun though. They made no effort to better conceal the spaces. You are walking through hallway with offices around and you are going to a set of stairs with props sitting around. Looked more like our school after a project was being taken apart. We then went into a room where the previous group was finishing working on three stations with some projects. As we got started on the stations, someone came in and invited us into the next space. I questioned the invitation because we were not finished yet and I was told we could stay behind but it would be a loooong wait. So we went on to watch the other group feed some messages they made to some creature in space. We just stood there watching them and listening to some youtube jokes. So 4 year old props, 8 year old content, 11 year old jokes.At the end, I have no idea what the connection was between the shop, body systems and space. I dont know if we found the thing and what the thing was.

A great place to take the kids for field tripThe atmosphere was awesome

We enjoyed the play; the actors interaction with the kids was awesome!!!

The Station has theater, dance, music, and other classes for kids, as well as summer camps and performances for the whole family.
