I loved this place because they need some engineering work done, and Im glad to be working. The theater is not yet open for live performances.

Great theatre, has a smaller one too for some good variety of shows.

Theater experience is great. But currently the front of theater has become a homeless shelter. Never sit on the outdoor window sils. Its a sleeping and storage area for the homeless.

Great venue for the performing arts. We were there for the performance of the Christmas Story, a perennial favorite. Great experience.A year later, we were back for the 40th annual run of the Christmas Story. As before, a great performance and a great experience. The place was decorated for the holidays and ready to lend holiday spirit for any to enjoy. Great staff, wonderful amenities at this not for profit facility. Enjoyable.

The two performances I saw here - Rent and A Christmas Carol - were so good. Very clean and vibrant environment.

Wonderful theater with very modern architecture. The main theater is gorgeous and super comfortable. Great sight lines, and wonderful Productions.

Timely subject matter, well written scripts by Americas top writers.Top notch acting from seasoned veterans and new comers alike. No bad seats in the house. Convenient loop/theater district location.

The Goodman always impresses us and we have been lucky to go a few times in the past few months. What wonderful shows theyve had with spectacular talent that draws out all sorts of emotions. Cannot recommend enough.

Excellant venue. Easy in and easy out. Very clean and well maintained.

The set was excellent, acting was very good. It isnt easy to find a fresh take on a story that has been done SO MUCH but the Goodman did it! Im sure I will be back next year again!

Saw a production of Roe tonight, and it was spectacular storytelling, and executed by a very talented cast and crew. The stage scene was impressive too!! Everyone in the country should see this play at least once.

I have been to the Goodman many times before, but this time I got to experience more of what Goodman has to offer play lovers. I saw How to Catch Creation. A beautfully written & wonderfully acted new play that was thankfully in the main theatre. I have season tickets which are very affordable but they are set for Sunday evenings. Calling member services and getting my tickets exchanged for an earlier time the same day was seamless. I wanted to witness the play but also talk with others and the production team afterwards. The experience of staying afterwards, sharing feelings, thoughts and impressions totally enriched my experience as well as talking with one of the Producers that answered questions and spoke on the dynamics of presenting a new play. I was enthralled and my enthusiasm to see the rest of the season with the talks was fueled. Beautiful space, friendly & accommodating staff, brilliant productions, actors and set designs. Just a lovely and wonderful experience! Support Goodman! :)

A great theater to watch Broadway and off Broadway productions.

Smaller than I thought but love the walnut finishes and seats were comfortable enough. We saw Music Man and it was a great show. Would return to the Goodman for future productions.

Goodman Theatre, Chicago’s oldest and largest not-for-profit theater, has won international renown for the quality of productions, the depth and diversity of artistic leadership, and the excellence of its many community and educational programs. Under the guidance of Artistic Director Robert Falls and Executive Director Roche Schulfer, the Goodman is committed to producing both classic and contemporary works, giving full voice to a wide range of artists and visions. Central to that mission is the Goodman Artistic Collective, a diverse group of outstanding theater artists whose distinctive visions have given the Goodman an artistic identity of uncommon richness and variety

Saw The Music Man and it was excellent. Its a very nice theatre. Its not too big, and everyone has a great view of the stage. The orchestra was also excellent, covering some very difficult pieces with absolute perfection. Great musical! Great theatre!

EXCELLENT, I loved this version. Have been seeing A Christmas Carol more than 10 years. They make small changes yearly and this year was wonderful. A must as part of the holiday season

I had a great time with my family at the Goodman Theatre. The actors performed in front of children and adults with autism. I was impressed by their ability to entertain everyone in the crowd and I will definitely come back again.

Very nice theatre. Although i feel like the people on the top floor (mezzanine) wont be able to see or hear much. (The photo is that of the stage floor, closest one can get)

A wonderful theater. They have some of the best and most professional performances in the city. Theyre always offering discounts making it affordable for anyone to come witness the greatness they display. The only drawback is that the side balcony seating doesnt offer the best views it could.

Went to see The Music Man for my Birthday. Great seating.

Great theatre. Clean, will lit, organize and right in the heart of downtown Chicago. Lots of parking across the street with easy access to the theatre.

We saw Graveyard Shift and Roe. Both wonderful plays. The Goodman is very good modern theater.

Great time here. Went to see A Christmas Carol. Very impressed with the performance. Theatre overall was in pretty good condition. Clean restrooms and very courteous staff ready to assist and point you in the right direction. Also great experience for older kids (Age 7 and up). Parking not too expensive as long as you pre-purchase it in advance. Look up your show on the Goodman theater website and get the parking in line with the timing of your show. Highly recommend.

Offers best and most consistent stage craft in Chicago Land/Loop area. Been a subscription holder for forty plus years. Loop parking is a challenge, but contact ticket Office for recommendation.

This is only the second time for me at Goodman. The first was a terrible experience. This time was far more worthwhile! Everyone was nice and accomodating. Hopefully the attitude will continue.

The people at the Goodman theater were very friendly and helpful. Courteous to those who are visually impaired and very informative!! I would recommend and this theater and Ill definitely return!!

Marvelous viewing, good seats. Saw a Christmas Carol. Best show ever

Its a smaller venue so that you get a good seat no matter where you are in the theater. I saw The Music Man and it was excellent. The stage was plenty big enough for a large-scale musical. Ive seen several things at the Goodman and its one of my favorite theaters.

This theater is very nice and it has an Restaurant connected to it. So you can eat and if you have left overs they will hold it for you for after the show.

Wonderful performance venue! Great space, comfortable seats, many bar options, and I love the store in the lobby. I was traveling from out of town and came to see “The Music Man” (I love Mary Zimmerman!) and as always she does not disappoint.I could imagine having a wedding or an event in the space as well, which is always good for a nonprofit theater space.

Amazing performance of Pulitzer winning play Sweat

Wonderful staff. Intimate theater with great feel for the actors and the stage. Your up close and personal, flush with a marvelous view of the stage no matter where you sit.

We saw Graveyard Shift, a great artistic fictional depiction of the Sandra Bland story. Just the thought of the story itself made me cry but the play was fun and sad at the same time. Id recommend this play to all.

Fun and intimate experience. Budget friendly.

Great theater amazing people and love the way its set up!

My girlfriend and I saw a Christmas Carol with her family. The experience was made wonderful and spectacular, because Mary in the ticket office moved us to the balcony because my girlfriends Mom broke her kneecap a week prior. Long live Tiny Tim. & Mary!

Always great theatre, fantastic sight lines, loved Were only for short moment of time

What an adorable little theatre with an outstanding cast in A Christmas Story. The play was very professional, funny and touching on all levels.

Great space, very nice staff. We really enjoyed sensory friendly Christmas Carol, and happy to learn there are so many accommodations they can make at any show.

The Owen theater with the Goodwin is a fantastic venue. I dont think any seat is more than 50 feet from the stage with the front be basically at the stage. The main floor seats are not permanent chairs; just stackable chairs that are placed in position. They dont recline but they are comfortable enough for a couple hours. Overall the theatre and lobby was very clean. It is a delightfully well maintained theatre. You will be pleased.

It is a very nice place to see a play. Note:they do not have an expresso bar here so coffee up before you arrive

The theater is cozy and doesnt seem to have a bad seat in the house. The acoustics were wonderful.

Great theatre, no seats looked to be bad seats. They had good selections for drinks and snacks too. Plenty of leg room for me even though Im pretty tall.

A lovely modern theatre with a good seat layout. I was at the back of the mezzanine and still had a fantastic unobstructed view. And unlike most theatres in the UK, there is a sensible number of cubicles in the ladies restrooms! Would have no problems como NG back here to see another play.

Only through Act I and in love with The Goodman!

Consistently expertly acted plays with amazing costumes and set design always superb performances.

The seating was very nice and the play I went to see was amazing. Must go for a fun night out.

Visited the Owen Theatre for Santa Land Diaries. Friendly staff. Intimate. Not a bad seat in the house!

Long ago I had season tickets at the Goodman. I loved those plays. I saw James Earl Jones and other great actors. Saw great plays.I moved away. I recently returned to the Goodman finally. It is nice, staff is very friendly.Not sure Id buy season tickets again ... The play was good, etc .... Id go again to the Goodman, but not with the same enthusiasm. Sigh.

May first time at this theatre, I loved it. Its a smaller theatre, very intimate. Saw Scooge, great!

Beautiful theatre, amazing shows, staff is so delightful and helpful! I just love going to any shows here!!!

Ushers are helpful

Great services ,and Great seating ! Location right across the street from parking! Plenty Restaurant in close to the Theater !

Fabulous place for live entertainment. We really enjoyed A Christmas Carol

Great plays. The staging is always first rate

We highly recommend getting involved in the ushering. You have to show up about 1 hour and 15 mins early, but after you do the scanning/handing out programs you get to sit in empty seats and watch the show for free! We have never been disappointed by the quality of the shows, each is thought provoking and moving in its own way.

Awesome theatre. Saw A Christmas Carol and that was great!

Great performance. Good views from every seat. Also liked the recycled programs.

Saw a great show here! The lobby can definitely get a little cramped though.

Amazing show. Fantastic staff. Prices for the gift shop and refreshments was fairly priced as well.

FANTASTIC! Am so glad I was able to experience this on my quick trip to Chicago in December. Lil gem of a theater!

We were in box seats on the third floor on the east side of the theater so whole play took place in a bar scene the bar scene was on the east side of the theater we could not see the bar from where we were sitting only when the actors ran out into the middle of the floor could we see them the hearing was excellent but could not see the play those are the worst seats in the world if the main action is going to take part on the east side of the theater you cannot see that from the box seats on the third floor so I think the play was probably very very good because Ive had other friends that Ive seen it and really enjoyed it I didnt enjoy it because of the seats that we win when we complained about it we were given a chance to move to any seats that were available but if anybody came in and said those were their sheets we had to move and of course we didnt want to do that and it was three of us so this was not a good experience this particular time but I have been there countless of times countless of plays and I have never never had an experience like this so I will tell anybody thats thinking about going please go to any of the play that I had to Goodman Theater if you get the box seats you must inquire about how the stage is being set up so you will be able to see well thats about it enjoy yourself

Have been here once at Christmas Carol. Enjoyed the show and the place

Wonderfully done performance and theater is awesome. Not a bad seat in the house.

First time experience, it was a great atmosphere and nice theater. Cant wait to see more here.

Very nice place. Run by donations only. A real jewel.

Intimate good performances. ROE amazing

We saw The Music Man, a show Ive seen approximately one million times. But they made it fresh and exciting. Gorgeous sets, top notch cast. I would love to go back.

Roe, was very well done. Enjoyed the show; a lot to think about.

Wonderful, old theater! Beautifully maintained and wonderful cast!! Special effects were terrific!!

Love the Goodman. Have seen quite a few shows here and its always an excellent experience!

Great sight lines with comfortable seats and wide aisles to stretch your legs. Very nice venue to catch a show. Parking available directly across the street.

Long-standing theater company existinging for many years. this is the first time I was in its new downtown location. I used to see movie theater is nice, has good seating lines. It has a tradition of producing very high quality place

Sophisticated downtown venue with top regional theater credentials. Always delivers well conceived productions but often lags behind leading edge of American stage.

A lovely cozy theater.

Love this theatre!! Theres not a bad seat in the house

My husband and I saw The Music Man. The performers did an excellent job. My husband and I love live theatre and we are very fortunate that Chicago has so much to offer in the live theatre. Thank you Goodman. Brake a leg.

Beautiful theater. 76 Trombonrs played the big parade.

Amazing and but it was very crowded at the concession stand other wise it was great and played by professionals

Excellent venue. Great shows all year round.

Santaland Diaries was great! Went last minute and got 2 second row seats for $67 total.

Affordable subscription packages for both Owen and Albert theaters. Convenient ticket exchange policy. Diverse offerings from drama to musicals. Showcase new playwrights and host educational member events. Significant outreach to local schools. Central downtown location with easy access to restaurants, shops, public transportation and parking facilities. Information desk, coat check, snack bar and gift shop. Greeter at door. Frequent online offers for discounts on select performances.

Very nice. Seats are not too uncomfortable and good views throughout. New location is nice and modern and has an elevator.

This is an excellent venue for performances. I look forward to returning.

I saw A Winters Tale last night and the performance was great. The casting was brilliant,set design a nice mix of simplistic and fantastical. I just wish there was a little more arm room in the seats.

The Goodman theater is a wonderful venue. The play I saw last night. Black Lives. Black Words was one of the best Ive ever seen. Kudos to the cast and Goodman for hosting this history making event.

Saw Music Man and it was very good. Theres parking closeby. Remember to get parking slip validated for discount on parking. Theater is smaller but acoustics are good.

Great theatre! Ive seen several plays there and most recently saw #AhWilderness

I have seen many amazing performances here. One of my favorite theatres in the City of Chicago (and there are LOTS of theaters in Chicago). Wonderful front of house staff...a beautiful yet modern space.

My son sees the Christmas Carol here every year for the special needs performance. All of the staff and actors are amazing.

The space continues to be timeless. The seating is well-organized, and provides an excellent experience. The service is professional and experienced.

A Christmas Carol entertains again...great cast.

I was there for a social event so, I didnt attend a play. But, the have a nice bar and friendly staff and its a good space.

Love this place! We have been members for 25 years. The quality is AWESOME!

I went here before as a fieldtrip in 5th grade in 2015 or 2016, I saw the christmas carol theater and I loved it so much, I want to come hear again this winter for 2019, It will be impossible but maybe one day I will go here again! Im already in high school by the way, good old memories.

Lovely, cozy theater! I watched the Christmas Carol here with my family this winter and found the small theater cozy and intimate. I sat to the right of the stage. When buying tickets, I recommend either a couple rows back or even balcony since it’s so small, those are the most “bang for your buck” seats without compromising view. Also, beware of sitting in front row since smog/smoke machines are used that trickle into the first couple rows.

We saw The Christmas Carol and it was fantastic! Highly recommend seeing this.

Recently visited here to see A Christmas Carol with my school. The show was absolutely wonderful, and everyone there had a great time. Although, I wouldnt call it a musical, it was a magical experience with some spooks thrown in! Everyone was warm and friendly, and didnt mind helping out. Would recommend the show, and the theatre! (Although the theatre itself was kind of small, the stage was HUGE)

It takes back in time with the story of Christmas spirit to change the human heart.
