Theatre in the Loop features listings on CTA kiosks along State Street in the Loop, as well as a robust digital component that allows performing arts lovers to find all they need to know about theatres reopening and the variety shows offered in the 2021-22 season.

Visitors spent about $90 million a year on tickets and admissions to these institutions prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. And the organizations themselves spent about $233 million a year on operations. Theatre in the Loop supports nearly 6,000 full-time-equivalent jobs, and it was one of the industries hit hardest and fastest by the pandemic, with one of the longest recoveries. Chicago Loop Alliance knows that theatre is paramount to a vibrant, thriving Loop, so we created this new initiative to support the industry and provide a resource for performing arts lovers.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cThe theatre industry in Chicago is a vital part of the fabric of our city,\u201d said League of Chicago Theatres Executive Director Deb Clapp. \u201cIt is a thrill to have theatre back\u2014and to experience this great, collective art form in Chicago again. We are so grateful that Chicago Loop Alliance is joining us in uplifting the industry and celebrating the art and artistry of world-renowned companies located in the loop and across Chicagoland.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cThe pandemic proved, among many things, that nothing can replicate the magic of live performance,\u201d said Greg Cameron, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Joffrey Ballet. \u201cIt is a vital part of what it means to be a global citizen, to build community through a shared experience, one that never replicates itself quite the same way again. The Joffrey is so proud to be part of the historic downtown Theatre District of Chicago, and we cannot wait to get back to doing what we love alongside our peers and neighbors.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cThe Gene Siskel Film Center was thrilled to welcome audiences back to experience the power and joy of films on the big screen at the beginning of August,\u201d said Jean de St. Aubin, Executive Director of the Gene Siskel Film Center. \u201cWe missed our loyal fans and have been delighted to see them along with many new patrons in the past few weeks. Movies are a social event meant to be seen and talked about as a community, and we are proud to be the Loop&#8217;s destination for all movie lovers.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p><p>\u201cWe are excited to welcome audiences back to the Loop at our National Historic Landmark this fall,\u201d said Auditorium Theatre CEO Rich Regan. \u201cAs we reopen our doors, we\u2019ll be creating a safe environment where live performance may thrive once again.
