What THE PRESS are saying:

"Adventure Stage Chicago bills itself as the premier Chicago theater for audiences ages 8–14, and with each new production, it's not difficult to see why."

"Awe-inspiring theater. Highly recommended."

"Go—let your kid escape the ordinary; let them get transported into a quirky, slightly dangerous and completely magical place, if just for a little while. It's a trip worth taking."

"A perfect afternoon of family entertainment...well worth your time and money."

"A way for kids to learn life’s important lessons, fall in love with theater and have a great time."

"Adventure Stage is the introduction to theater I wish all children could have."

"Thoughtful, imaginative...first rate acting, directing and design...really extraordinary."

What OUR AUDIENCE IS saying:

“I try to see every show ASC does because they are always exceptionally done. ASC is doing something in theatre that I really don’t see anywhere else in Chicago–stories for ages 9 and up that are thoughtful and intelligent with top-notch production values. I wouldn’t want to miss a show and always look forward to the next one.”

"We adults especially appreciated that the performance was entertaining and educational for us as well. We wish you all the success you can handle!!"

“The highest quality children’s theater I’ve ever seen! Fantastic!”

“I love the shows and the experiences I have had here. Thank you.” 

"My kids and I loved it. It was as engaging for me (the dad) as it was for them!"

“The curtain conversation was a very novel way to get the audience involved. Great atmosphere. Very entertaining!”

"Great fun that inspires one to be excited to see the world, have adventures, help others and love!"

“I'm thrilled to have discovered Adventure Stage and I'm looking forward to attending future productions. In fact, that leads me to my one and only criticism--you don't have nearly enough productions on your upcoming calendar!”
