I had never been to this theater before but I would be anxious to see another show here! The venue is easy to get to and easy to park. This is a beautiful venue that could have a variety of cool things going on.
I loved the set up of the stage - great job crew! The actors were amazing! I had never heard of this show until I heard the rumblings of how good it was. Well, it was better than that! The show was brought to life with fantastic performances from the musicians and actors. Great job by all. The cast of Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 have intense talent and I appreciate the job you did during this production!

Lovely venue. Very modern and recently renovated. Kind staff at the box office. Great programming, I went to a panel in conjunction with the production Dhaba on Devon!

We went here to watch the play, Dhaba on Devon Avenue. Lovely theater with a very interesting stage set up which is very cosy giving the audience a feeling I felt was literally like "being a fly on the wall". Plenty of parking nearby especially on the weekends including that at the Metra station.

Excellent place to watch a play. We were in the small theater. Where everything was up close and personal. The play "Every Brilliant Thing" was very moving and gave me something to think about. Jessie Fisher's performance was spot on. It's so worth getting tickets for this thought-provoking performance.

Just saw the current production, Rachmanioff and the Tsar; it’s a thoughtful, rich & captivating show with two outstanding leads. Special mention to the creator Hershey Felder, who filled the room with his energy and passionate performance. Highly recommended.

Writer's Theater is a must-see destination. The Studio Gang designed building is incredibly impressive and beautiful. It was a cold day, but the exterior grounds look like an inviting place to stroll before your show.
I saw the Manual Cinema's production of A Christmas Carol. A MUST SEE!!! The show was incredible. The season programming looks interesting and I plan to look into tickets for future productions.

All the glass and high ceilings make the space outside the theater feel very light and airy. Easily accessible restrooms. Relatively intimate space in the theater.
