Chicago Theatre Week Starts Today WIth Discounts on Chicago Productions

Chicago Theatre Week, an annual celebration of the rich tradition of theatre-going in Chicago during which visitors and residents can access value-priced tickets, takes place February 8-18, 2024. 

The value-priced CTW tickets are $30, $15, or less. Tickets are now on sale at ChicagoTheatreWeek.com.

To date, 62 theatre companies are participating with more than 80 productions and 440 individual performances. More than 12,000 tickets have been sold as of February 7, 2024.

Last year’s Chicago Theatre Week saw record ticket sales with more than 20,000 tickets sold to 78 participating productions for more than 500 performances. The program continues to bring in new audiences to area theatres with approximately 60% of patrons visiting their chosen theatre for the first time. Chicago Theatre Week also raises the visibility of the theater industry, as evidenced by the 473,000 cumulative pageviews on ChicagoTheatreWeek.com from the ticket onsale through the end of Theatre Week.
