Lincoln Ave. in Chicago\u2019s Lincoln Park neighborhood. Our mission is first and foremost to grow local theatre.<\/p>\n<p>The Greenhouse Theater began its producing life in 2014 with the smash hit\u00a0<em>Churchill<\/em>, after which came 2016\u2019s much-lauded Solo Celebration!, an eight month, 16 event series highlighting the breadth and depth of the solo play form. This year, the Greenhouse announced a full subscription season, with a mix of multi-character and solo plays. With a focus on our community, the Greenhouse has also launched the Trellis Residency Initiative, an initiative designed to cultivate the next generation of Chicago theatre creators.<\/p>\n<p>As a performance venue, our complex offers two newly remodeled 190-seat main stage spaces, two 60-seat studio theaters, two high-capacity lobbies and an in-house rehearsal room. We strive to cultivate a fertile environment for local artists, from individual renters to our bevy of resident companies, and to develop and produce their work. In 2016, the Greenhouse announced a new residency program, which offers a reduced rate to local storefront companies while giving the Greenhouse a stake in the resident\u2019s success. We house Chicago\u2019s only dedicated used theatre bookstore, located on the second floor of our complex.<\/p>\n<p>With new ideas always incubating, the Greenhouse is flourishing.
