I have been a long time fan of porch light. They were really outgrowing their prior space and wow the Ruth Page is such a great improvement. It is a rather wide space but it is theirs and I have seen two shows so far and they have top notch designers. The cast is made up of season pros to just out of college. What a great place to see Chicagos best musical theatre talent. They have valet and restaurants close by.

Watched Sunset Boulevard here with the family and had a very enjoyable experience. Cozier than the Goodman, with comparable production quality. It mightve been our choice of play but definitely attracted an older crowd

It was a awesome show. Duke ellington sophisticated Ladies. It show be on Broadway.

Saw Sunset Boulevard here. I kept wondering why the stage was angled making it impossible to see the show even though we were seated in the 2nd row, left side. The show was great however!!!

Saw the musical Sunset Boulevard tonight with a friend. The production was first rate. Was very impressed by the principals Hollis Resnick and Billy Rude but the whole ensemble were very good.The theater itself was comfortable, sightlines clear.Im looking forward to the next production

Sophisticated Ladies was a great musical. The singing, dancing and acting were wonderful.

Came for Higher Ground show and it was truly amazing. All the performances were beautiful. Seating was opening seating and I thought it was great and I was able to see everything.

Loved watching Burning Bluebeard!!! One of my favorite plays. So beautiful! So emotional!

We enjoyed a very entertaining production of A Chorus Line. Well staged with a decent cast. This intimate theater is enjoyable but could use a slightly better sound system. Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable evening.

Loved it!! But maybe sit more in the back, we were second row and I felt the actors were in my lap.

The atmosphere was awesome & the actual play was very very good ...

We saw the most amazing production of A Chorus Line at Porchlight! They have a great reputation for consistently recreating American musicals for Chicago! Well done Porchlight!

Comfortable seating. Sunset Blvd with Hollis Resnick was enjoyable.

Our group enjoyed a Porchlight Music Theatre musical at the Ruth Page art center. The showing of Merrily We Roll Along was well done. The multimedia set provided a means to explain this complex musical. The venue is small and intimate. It will take climbing stairs to enter the theater. The seats are fold up style found at older movie theaters. The seats in our row were loose and rocked when others moved. In general, this is a great company in a smaller theater setting.

A small theater with about 10 rows of seat in the main section. Great for a up close experience. I recently saw a musical there. It is so much better than being in a large theater. You see better and catch more details.

You will have an excellent time here. Despite its small to mid size, they go all out on the stage. Its a complete, concert hall size stage, with an excellent production crew, and the seating is intimate as you can be. They could have opted for a smaller stage and more seats to sell, but they went the other way around, with limited seating but a grandiose, high quality experience. Excellent.

Great venue for musical theater. Mid sized but cosy. Inexpensive parking on the opposite side of the block. I Highly recommend you give this place a look.

Wonderful show benefiting great programs! A great little theater!

I had a great evening of theater here. The show was world class and I enjoyed my experience all around.The theater itself is easy to find on Dearborn street in Chicagos Gold Coast. Its well marked. I took the El, so I dont know what the parking situation is, but I do know that there are parking lots up the street. The lobby is bright and the staff is friendly. Youll need to go upstairs or downstairs from the lobby for the restroom facilities though.

First time Ive been here. Came to see Merrily We Roll Along. Super friendly staff. We sat in the handicapped spot. It doesnt look like theres a bad seat in the house. The staff was all friendly and helpful. The cast was excellent. Definitely worth a visit.

First time there and saw a great production of gypsy. For a small stage they did a great job of making it come to life for the production. Id encourage people to give it a try!

Great Theater Great Seating and AMAZING Performances

I saw sunset boulevard, the production was amazing.

Very nice small theater with nice staff

This is a nice and cute theatre! We went to see Billy Elliott and sat in the balcony stage left. The seats were so comfy and spacious! I might go to more plays here just because it wasnt cramped. Its a smaller venue so any seat in the house is a good one. There is a bar on balcony that may get in the way of your view occasionally so seats on the main floor might be nicer.

I love this small theater. There is not a bad seat in the house.

Amazing! Best staging of Gypsy Ive ever seen. E. Faye Butler was made for this role - what a talent! Dont miss it!

Very good musiccal

Very good production. Enjoyed Chorus Line tremendously

Great little theatre!

We had a great time... we enjoyed the play!!!

Intimate venue and a great production of A Chorus Line!

As the song goes, I had A real good time. Saw Gypsy. Thought it was FANTASTIC

Excellent performance of Gypsy both singing and acoustically. Rose is phenomenal

Just witnessed the Outstanding Production of MEMPHIS. If you havent been to the Porchlight Theater check out there schedule for upcoming Hits. Memphis is running until June 17th...Trust me...You Wont Regret It...

Great musical performances. Great staff for customer service.

E. Faye Butler as Mama Rose Hovic was OUTSTANDING.

Small theater, nice neighborhood...Good times...

A nice venue for affordable performances.

I enjoyed the play! The theatre needs some work it was 90 degrees outside and 85 inside. Just before intermission someone had a fall and we were asked to stay seated so we had no opportunity to cool off in the lobby arwa, but the staff was pleasant and apologetic. I would most diffinelty return!.

Saw Memphis on 5/12 and it was absolutely incredible!!! One of the best live performances that Ive seen in years!

Very nice atmosphere for a play. Good sound and nice pleasant employees!!!

The performance was great, the theatre is old with no central air but still had much character!

I love this place, great customer service and awesome viewing wherever you sit.

Gypsy was outstanding. I highly recommend it.

We thought Memphis was one of the best musical we have seen.

Great production!!

Ya gotta see Sunset Boulevard!

Awesome theatrical plays. Check them out. Lets Play Brenda & Rick.

Memphis the play musical was FABALOUS BLACK CAST rocks

Great musicals

Me and my aunt laura is going to see Memphis the musical at the excited about seeing Memphis

Quaint theater ... I enjoyed a beautiful performance of the Scottsboro Boys directed by Samuel Roberson, Jr., and what a performance it was: bold and honest.

Some great Chicago theatre, but the venue is not meant for what they do and thier presence in the Page is damaging to the dance community who relies on the space to flourish and grow.

Top notch professional theater, always!

All star company! Great shows!

Loved Chorus Line

Amazing actors. Great show!!!
