Chicago Shakespeare This Summer

 

Chicago Shakespeare Theater features two shows this summer that are perfect for your entire ARTSiE family!

Courdory introduces young audiences to the wonder of live theater, and the power of imagination. The beloved bear’s button has gone missing, and he can’t go home with kindhearted Lisa without it. Audiences will follow Corduory’s rollicking and delightfully destructive journey through the department store as he searches high and low—up escalators, and to the top of a teetering store display. This is a perfect, family-friendly outing for you and your children this summer. To find out more or to purchase tickets, click here.

As the Hobbits celebrate Bilbo Baggins’ eleventy-first birthday in the Shire, he gifts his nephew Frodo his most precious belonging—a gold ring. This fateful moment launches Frodo on a legendary and perilous quest across Middle-earth to the darkest realms of Mordor, to vanquish evil with his loyal Fellowship. This theatrical event celebrates the magical world of Middle-earth, making for an unforgettable experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike. The musical is suitable for all ages but will most be enjoyed by ages 8+. To find out more information or to purchase tickets, click here.
