Saw state of the art, more up and coming theatre here. They do a great job of picking new plays that do something different. They are able to pick good quality plays. Inexpensive, and worth all of the money. Good service. Nice, intimate theatre setting.

A gem of a theater, we saw a play called "How to Use a Knife" which had an enthusiastic cast despite its ambiguous theme. The facility itself has 3 main stages; the one I went to was an alley stage with two sections of seating opposite each other and the stage in the middle. Overall a lovely night.

This theater cancelled a paid for event with contracts signed at the last minute for a LGBT town hall with 300 tickets purchased after they found out that the founder who is gay man, his panelist a Gay jewish man & a trans-gender woman wanted to discuss why LGBT's continue to vote Democrat. The the...

Great experience working with them. Theater 3 was a lovely and very flexible venue for our production, and came well equipped. I ve also enjoyed several late night shows there (Afterparty) and had a blast! I do wish they had changing tables for my baby, but other than that the space is great, and th...

BEWARE, guest was less than 15 mins late with a ticket on hold, they refused to allow him to enter theatre #3. Weather conditions were horrible, and traveled 1-1/2 hours; however, I stayed around to take someone home as promised "Virtues of Selflessness!" I DO NOT recommend this place, Double Stan...

These people do not honor their contract. Also they lied and tried to defame Brandon s Straka and his #WalkAway movement. I guess they didn t learn from the jerks who tried the same thing in NYC who are now facing a libel lawsuit after pulling the same thing. You preach tolerance and inclusivity but...

These people are cowards and not worth your time or money after they completely backed out of a contract with the #walkaway town hall event scheduled in July 2019 because of false reports. These guys will never receive any money from me or anyone I tell about this cowardly act.

I love seeing shows at The Wit! The staff at the box office are always friendly and eager to help me, no matter how many questions I have. The theaters themselves are small enough for an intimate show, but large enough for a rousing audience. It's an inexpensive way to get into local Chicago theater...

This establishment are bigots to conservatives. They canceled a lbtg townhall event that was being put on by #walkaway that welcomed anyone who wanted to come. Wit theater canceled their event with 24 hrs or less than that before it took place. This is incredibly unprofessional and bigoted to boo...

Shame on you for the horrific treatment of a solid group of American Citizens who went out if their way, spent a tremendous amount of time and money to be there only to be turned away at the last minute! If you run your organization by not allowing the unpopular opinion to be represented, I'm certai...

Ignore the review stating they weren't let in. Going to theatre is not like going to the movies. If you show up late the theatre has the right deny you entrance.

Theatre wit is a great space. Seen multiple shows here and had a great experience everytime. They put up great shows with great ac...

This facility contains several small theaters with a shared lobby area. Many local theater companies use these spaces, and they work quite well. There is a bar in the lobby area, with a nice selection of wine and cocktails. It's a great cultural resource for the community.

They cancelled a contract with people that they don't agree with politically. Calling us racist and bigots...I'm sick and tired of all of the name calling. It's time for these businesses to stop adding to the divisiveness that is going on in this country. The #Walkaway group is peaceful and inclusi...

I would like to give 0 stars but then I could not comment. Theater Wit cancelled an event they had already signed a contract to provide space for because it was a heavens forbid....conservative group running the event! Cowards and closed minded at best. That's the liberal agenda. Free speech is...

Wish I could give this venue zero star review. They recently descriminated against a group by cancelling the venue at the last minute. Apparently they don't allow people of various skin color, backgrounds, nationality, and sexual orientation if they don't vote Democrat. I hope they are held acco...
