The House Theatre Welcomes New Company Members

The House Theatre of Chicago is pleased to welcome six new company members, including Debbie Baer, Cliff Chamberlain, Lee Keenan, Chad Kenward, Kat McDonnell, and Joey Steakley. With the addition of these talented individuals, The House now has a total of 34 company members skilled in a variety of technical and artistic disciplines.
 
"We are thrilled to be adding these awesome artists to our family, and cannot thank them enough for the spirit, time and energy they have already invested in The House," says Artistic Director, Nathan Allen. "We are looking forward to growing and working with them on future projects."
 
It is the mission of The House to unite Chicago in the spirit of Community through amazing feats of Storytelling. The pursuit of this mission is what has led The House to break the rules of building a traditional ensemble. Alongside The House's current Company actors and directors are writers, choreographers, production staff, designers, composers and visual artists, all collaborating to create innovative original works.
 
The House Theatre of Chicago was founded in 2001 by a group of friends from around the country with the sole purpose of moving to Chicago and starting a world-class theatrical institution in the tradition of the great Chicago ensembles that had come before. Following a critically acclaimed run of their first show, Death and Harry Houdini, The House burst onto the Chicago scene with the smash hit success of The Terrible Tragedy of Peter Pan, an original adaptation that ran for five months in 2002.
 
The ensuing years brought more than a dozen world premiere productions including Dave DaVinci Saves the Universe, The Great and Terrible Wizard of Oz, Hatfield & McCoy and the genre bending, three year, epic rock musical, The Valentine Trilogy. In early 2007, the critical and popular success of The Sparrow took The House to both the Steppenwolf Merle Reskin Garage Theatre, and the Apollo Theater, and with it a whole new audience.
