More support for the local arts!…read more For some odd reason, I thought Links Hall was closer to The Vic. Boy, was I way off. Does that matter?!? Not an itsy-bitsy bit! This studio is on the second floor of a narrow building, a few steps off of Clark, on Sheffield. If you sneeze, you can miss the joint. Does that matter?!? Heck, no! We ended up seeing a local dancer and her friend. Are they choreographers? No. Are they talented? Yes. Are there some parts of the show that can use improvement? Yes. Was the music great? Yes. Was I entertained? Yes. Would I support another "arts" performance here? Yes. What a great place to see events that may not have the opportunity to make it to a main stage, but still possess a lot of talent!

Cute, small venue. I saw a friend's dance performance here…read more Although this was my first time to Link's Hall, I would imagine it's hub for small dance performances. I would also imagine, that due to the size, it's more for local performances than larger scale ones. There's not much in the realm of food/beverage, though there was a water cooler (THAT WAS EMPTY BY THE TIME I GOT TO IT, BOO) to cool you off. Only downside of Link's Hall is that it gets WARM up in there. Pretty much the entire audience had taken off all the clothes they could by the time the performance was over.

They are horrible. You can give them all the information in the world and they will wait to show up…read moreand then say they can't help you. They make promises that aren't kept and are just terrible. I don't recommend them at all. Imagine booking a company and then they leave you without any movers after showing up late.

During the winter and spring of 2012-2013, I took Professor Nana Shineflug's Qi Gong class at…read moreHamlin Park and it was excellent. Nana has a long history as a dancer and has studied Qi Gong in China. This is an exercise class that re-aligns and re-trains your body mechanics. The class improved my posture. Also, the movements and exercises strengthened my pelvic floor, which, as a mom, is an ongoing issue for me. She and the senior students are welcoming and encouraging. Sign up is through the Chicago Park District website or at the park.

This place is absolutely awesome! We bought out the theater for an evening, and invited our…read moreclients to enjoy their show. Shelby was the organizer, and we just trusted her to make it a great night. She blew us away. They took care of our every need, and put on a show that left our clients happier than we could have imagined. Thank you Bughouse! We will be back for more in 2023!!!

Nice theater, small and well managed. Went to watch young Frankenstein with our 15 year old which…read morewas a mistake. The musical should be 18-+ because of some content.

You most definitely need to visit the apothecary bar, where the drinks are on parallel with the decor . It's a unique theater, quaint and intimate, where you decide to play the audience. .

I saw their production of Angels in America part one tonight and it was amazing! I can't wait to…read morecome back for part two! Amazing actors. Beautiful theatre! Intimate space and every seat is a good one. Very well organized. Plenty of bathrooms and they were very clean. Fun variety of concessions with sodas, sparking waters, chips, candy bars, fruit snacks and more. The lobby has cool comfy furniture too. The decor is really nice. Really great atmosphere and friendly staff.

A whole other class of so-called storefront theatre in Chicago, your immersion into the world of…read morethe play starts as soon as you enter the lobby, which is subtly (or sometimes overtly) themed to suit the show (70s chairs and glass ash trays for Network; candles, lanterns, and the creeping wilds for Macbeth). Going a step further, these two shows have also featured pre-show segments, ie actors and action happening onstage before the show starts, while the audience settles in, drawing you even more into the world to be created. I've seen moving, surprising, and incredibly engaging performances, and recommend you test the waters yourself. They typically have previews and industry night discounts if you're on a budget. Metered parking on the street outside, but free parking along many side streets. Plenty of local establishments as well for a meal before/after your show (some drinks/snacks are available in the theatre as well). It's Intimate, it's Invigorating, it's Invictus. nb, for actors: they do offer classes as well, often focusing on the playwrights their season will feature.

This venue has some really strong positives - like free parking, historic importance and really…read moreunique productions. It's also in disrepair and the overall experience becomes quite affected by it. I've been twice - to watch Dante and Flamenco. Their ticketing system is quite lax and we found people sitting in rows/seats they didn't bug, creating chaos. We settled for a new option close by because people claiming our ticketed seats didn't want to relocate. The sound system was generally fine but there are some logistical challenges they faced for the flamenco performance.
