The Playground Theater

The Playground's affiliated actors work on a 100-percent volunteer basis to perform and operate the theater. Home House and Incubator teams, as well as, guest ensembles from across Chicago and around the world, the theater also offers children's programs, fundraising benefit shows, improv master classes and customized comedy shows for corporations and other groups.

The Playground Theater, founded in 1997, remains the only continuously operating non-profit theater in Chicago dedicated to an art form invented in Chicago - Modern Theatrical Improvisation.
