Eat at the Mity Nice Grill before the theater . Great food and they have a great special pre-theater
I have likely seen about a half dozen of their shows from 2009-11. And all were amazing. More artistic , touching, and technically impressive than anySteppenwolf or Goodman show I have seen.
Saw the little prince here-- so visceral, whimsical, and imaginative ; very intimate space , not a bad seat in the house
Expect the unexpected. Always cerebral & plenty To interpret afterwards... Good people
Always a good show at the Looingglass. A true theatre experience.
Awesome, creative, interesting productions full of talented people. I love Lookingglass.
Cash bar , so make sure you come prepared!
The Great Fire was truly amazing. Definitely going back to see other shows.
A very unique play. Bring your imagination with you & any seat is a good seat in the house.
Best theatre in town for new works! Inventive, innovative & imaginative
Just saw Mr & Mrs Pennyworth and it was outstanding.
Lookingglass Theatre Company was founded in 1988 by actors that went on to strike it big, including Joey Slotnick.

Very supportive of local, national & international presentations of programs, it is located in a building that has been a theatre & movie house since the early 1900s. - Chicago Cultural Alliance
Great performance of the Lion King. Accousitics are great. We had trouble see through the heads in front of us. The only drawback but it was annoying. Of course I would go again great theatre. - Michael Moors
Beautiful space. Unique and versatile, a definite asset to the theatre community. I look forward to seeing more shows there. - Alysha Balog
I've been going to Water Tower ever since I was young. I'm still mesmerized by the glass elevator. The Foodlife is a food court that accommodates all taste buds. The Water Tower is great fun for all. - Raveese Gladney
