Our city is alive with joyous<br />
celebrations, acts of courage and<br />
redemption, intrigue and betrayal, and<br />
always, always love.<br />
A place <strong>Shakespeare</strong> could call home.<br />
Four hundred years ago, <strong>Shakespeare</strong><br />
wrote plays filled with the same joy,<br />
courage and love.<br />
Today, <strong>Shakespeare</strong> lives in <strong>Chicago</strong>.<br />
Only the players have changed.

For more than twenty years,<br />
<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> has<br />
created unforgettable productions<br />
of his timeless works – scorching with<br />
honesty, bursting with humor, pulsing<br />
with humanity – that speak to audiences<br />
in a way they have never heard<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong> before.<br />
Kings whisper to school teachers.<br />
Beggars hold court with politicians.<br />
Soldiers inspire grandmothers.<br />
Lovers confide in bankers.<br />
And it’s that moment.<br />
That intimate moment.<br />
When the actors overstep the<br />
stage and speak right into the<br />
hearts of the audience.<br />
That’s when <strong>Shakespeare</strong><br />
comes alive in <strong>Chicago</strong>.

For more<br />
A <strong>Shakespeare</strong> moment is a rich one, and<br />
creates an appetite for bold, compelling<br />
theater experiences. The kind of theater that<br />
demands the most from its actors. And keeps<br />
audiences coming back.<br />
<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> has<br />
emerged as an important performing arts<br />
center, providing audiences with classic<br />
and innovative theater.<br />
Living up to the legacy of its name.<br />
Audiences embrace international<br />
productions from our World’s Stage Series.<br />
Families celebrate their first theater<br />
experience through CST Family Series.<br />
More than 50,000 high school students<br />
and teachers annually discover the<br />
power of our playwright through Team<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong>. While loyal patrons continue<br />
to cheer our newly commissioned works<br />
by the gifted artists of our time – just like<br />
Globe audiences centuries before.<br />
Look what <strong>Shakespeare</strong> started.

By coupling the talents of our producing team with<br />
an international roster of distinguished actors, CST<br />
aims to give theatergoers the means to explore the<br />
dramatic works of William <strong>Shakespeare</strong> and other<br />
classics, while providing important counterpoint<br />
through newly commissioned plays and the presentation<br />
of acclaimed guest artists.<br />
Two very different, complementary performance<br />
spaces in our theater on Navy Pier provide a perfect<br />
home for artists and audiences alike. The thrust stage<br />
of the 500-seat Jentes Family Auditorium (inspired by<br />
the Royal <strong>Shakespeare</strong> Company’s Swan Theatre) necessitates<br />
an intimate, immediate relationship between<br />
the actors and their audience, who sit around three<br />
sides of the stage. By contrast, The Carl and Marilynn<br />
Thoma <strong>Theater</strong>, a 200-seat black box, offers practically<br />
limitless versatility to suit the creative choices of an<br />
artistic team.<br />
Through a 50-week season encompassing more than<br />
600 performances, CST leads the community as the<br />
largest employer of <strong>Chicago</strong> actors. CST attracts<br />
225,000 audience members annually, including 20,500<br />
subscribers and nearly 50,000 students and teachers.<br />

Dear FrIeND<br />
As the <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> Chair, I have spent a great<br />
deal of time attending exploratory meetings with the <strong>Theater</strong>’s<br />
artistic directorate and staff leaders. You quickly learn to admire the<br />
complex orchestration of parts – some predictable, many not – in<br />
running such a demanding operation. The depth of artistic talent is<br />
simply remarkable, as the costs for sustaining and expanding operations<br />
are significant.<br />
This year’s report provides a perspective on the breadth of CST’s<br />
efforts – with productions for <strong>Shakespeare</strong> lovers, arts enthusiasts,<br />
students and families, as well as intensive training for actors, classroom<br />
teachers and aspiring arts managers.<br />
There can be no doubt whatsoever that CST has made an enormous<br />
contribution to our city.<br />
Last season alone, CST offered 634 performances; reached 46,708<br />
students and teachers; engaged 20,500 subscribers; hosted guest<br />
artists from Russia, South Africa and Italy; and sent our first production<br />
to the Royal <strong>Shakespeare</strong> Company. Yes, CST is a complex<br />
organization. Hard working. Awe inspiring.<br />
I’m energized by the leadership vision and will encourage emerging<br />
plans for the next chapter in the life of <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong>.<br />
We will make “no small plans.”<br />
Many of you have given generously to CST. Thank you for your<br />
support. And to you who have not joined us at a performance<br />
recently, I encourage you to visit and see just how magical <strong>Chicago</strong><br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s brand of theater can be.<br />

from the artistic &<br />
eXecutiVe directors<br />
A few weeks before our company announced its move to Navy<br />
Pier, we sat on a park bench overlooking the future site of <strong>Chicago</strong><br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong>. At the time, we were not sure exactly what<br />
lay ahead for the company, but we could see clearly that our work<br />
would need to embrace the vigorous energy of the city and our new<br />
lakefront location. We would need to embody the notion “Everybody’s<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong>,” making ours a home for audiences from all<br />
walks of life and from around the world.<br />
In the pages of this report, we see our vision coming into focus.<br />
The Subscription Series has never been stronger, our producing<br />
knowledge growing each year through ambitious undertakings,<br />
world premieres and collaborations. The World’s Stage Series<br />
astounds us – both the privilege of welcoming such distinguished<br />
artists and the great variety of audiences they attract. Still another<br />
terrific accomplishment looms over the horizon, as our Team<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong> arts-in-education program will soon serve its one<br />
millionth student.<br />
The time has come again for us to push forward. Our broad, accessible<br />
programming and the tremendous support we’ve received<br />
from philanthropic and civic leadership inspires us to take this<br />
company to still a higher level – from a cherished staple of the local<br />
community to an internationally-recognized and iconic American<br />
theater company. This is the goal.<br />
In the coming year we will be announcing bold plans for moving<br />
ahead, for supporting the mandates of our growing programs and<br />
building an incomparable platform for showcasing the very best<br />
theater artists. To remain in top form requires inspired change.<br />
We hope you will take a minute to browse these pages. Look at all<br />
<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> has become. We will ask each of you<br />
to join us in the challenges and rewarding discoveries that lay ahead.<br />

The centerpiece of our performance season at<br />
<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> is the annual Subscription<br />
Series. It is the engine that drives our theater,<br />
with featured selections from <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s canon,<br />
complemented by other dramatic works of both the<br />
past and present that resonate with <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s<br />
timeless insights into the human condition.<br />
We are known at CST for our devotion to preserving<br />
the integrity of <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s language, while at the<br />
same time making the work clear and understandable<br />
to a modern American audience. When we choose<br />
the lineup for a season, we look for plays that run the<br />
gamut of emotion and cover a range of voice, tone<br />
and style.<br />
Our loyal audience base, numbering 20,500 annual<br />
subscribers, comes back to support us year after year,<br />
eager to visit our stages and experience with us the<br />
joys of live performance.

<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong>’s World’s Stage Series<br />
affords local theatergoers prime opportunities to<br />
experience different cultural traditions and must-see<br />
touring shows without ever leaving <strong>Chicago</strong> city limits.<br />
In curating the World’s Stage, CST takes its cue from<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s high mark of quality and from Europe’s<br />
freewheeling touring circuit. We have had occasion to<br />
host many of our globe’s iconic troupes: The Abbey<br />
Theatre from Dublin, <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s Globe Theatre<br />
from London, the Chekhov International Theatre<br />
Festival from Moscow, La Comédie Française from<br />
Paris, The Farber Foundry from South Africa... the list<br />
grows more impressive with each passing year.<br />
Local theater professionals, working on our<br />
city’s stages, benefit tremendously from personal<br />
interactions with their international counterparts,<br />
including rare chances to attend master classes and<br />
forums featuring our esteemed guest artists. We<br />
delight, too, in the honor of presenting our own CST<br />
touring productions before discerning audiences in the<br />
world’s great theater cities, earning praise for <strong>Chicago</strong><br />
and our own wonderful artists.<br />
Ours is a landmark commitment, cementing<br />
a new theater tradition in <strong>Chicago</strong> with a<br />
distinctly international focus.<br />

Through the commissioning of new stagings and the<br />
re-illumination of classical plays, our New Classics<br />
initiative stretches artistic boundaries.<br />
New Classics commissions are concrete additions<br />
to the American theater canon, and always wrought<br />
of the same high standards we bring to our major<br />
<strong>Shakespeare</strong> productions. Our published New Classics<br />
scripts bring a sustained viability to these efforts, and<br />
an open call for producers and artistic directors across<br />
the country to try their hand at these glorious works.<br />
As a living art form, theater by its nature demands that<br />
we approach it not as a collection to be dusted off and<br />
exhibited, but as an ever-growing, ever-evolving opus.<br />
We view New Classics as a means to redouble the range<br />
of opportunities we can present to artists, directors<br />
and designers – pushing artists and audiences into<br />
uncharted territory.

Our CST Family Series presents a convergence<br />
of abridged <strong>Shakespeare</strong> productions, timeless<br />
fables and fairy tales, interactive music concerts<br />
and musical theater created with families in mind. For<br />
the tens of thousands of families who visit Navy Pier<br />
every year – each in search of an assortment of sights,<br />
sounds and entertainment – <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong><br />
<strong>Theater</strong> can offer a significant experience, introducing<br />
the classics and the performing arts to young people.<br />
Family theater is a shared experience where children<br />
engage actively and viscerally in story-making. When<br />
stories express something meaningful about one’s<br />
emotional landscape or the horizons of a world the<br />
child is coming to know, the experience can be deeply<br />
illuminating and enriching.<br />
One need not wait until adulthood to begin a discovery<br />
of <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s works or other timeless tales. At CST,<br />
we believe the classics exist for the benefit of all, and<br />
as a guide throughout our lives. For parent and for<br />
child, these relationships can take root through our<br />
CST Family Series.

For the past 16 years, our Team <strong>Shakespeare</strong> artsin-education<br />
program has been uniting the skills of<br />
theater artists and teachers to bring <strong>Shakespeare</strong> to<br />
life in the school curriculum.<br />
Two central tenets guide all Team <strong>Shakespeare</strong> act-<br />
ivities: (1) a belief that <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s plays are best<br />
understood as active storytelling on the theater stage;<br />
and (2) that the skills of theater practitioners – voice,<br />
fluency, imagination, intent – link directly to best<br />
practices in literacy. Just as actors do when developing<br />
characters, strong readers break down words, scan for<br />
clues, imagine scenes and formulate opinions.<br />
Our classroom handbooks and free workshops give<br />
educators a battery of engaging classroom study<br />
methods, with emphasis on active wordplay, open<br />
discussion and dramatic reenactment of <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s<br />
texts. To underscore this commitment, more than<br />
100 <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> matinees each<br />
season are reserved exclusively for student audiences,<br />
with deep ticket subsidies to ensure broad access for<br />
all schools.<br />
The study of <strong>Shakespeare</strong>’s plays exists as a “rite of<br />
passage” for American students, an activity through<br />
which it is hoped different generations, countries and<br />
cultures may be bridged. CST views it as a privilege and<br />
a responsibility to support this annual academic pursuit.

<strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Shakespeare</strong> <strong>Theater</strong> seeks to be a learning<br />
institution as well as a performing arts center, with<br />
opportunities for our community members to delve<br />
deep into the nuances of art and the business of theater.<br />
CST operates three education-based programs that<br />
invite our community into a dialogue with us to widen<br />
understanding and build expertise.<br />
Open DOOr at CSt<br />
Audiences can obtain insight into the plays they see on<br />
our stages through pre- and post-performance talks<br />
dealing with the historical context surrounding the<br />
play, and relevant social and political issues. Scholars<br />
from across the country are invited to participate in<br />
these lectures.<br />
CSt ClaSSiCal training prOjeCt<br />
Artistic Director Barbara Gaines founded CST through<br />
a series of First Folio <strong>Shakespeare</strong> Workshops with a<br />
group of young <strong>Chicago</strong> actors. Twenty years later, our<br />
core of actors continues this tradition, spearheading<br />
a regimen of training sessions to help expand the<br />
range of any actor’s repertoire. We look to support a<br />
new generation of classical actors, so that our city will<br />
have a strong pool of thriving talent for years to come.<br />
artS leaDerShip prOgram<br />
CST, in partnership with The <strong>Theater</strong> School at DePaul<br />
University, has developed a two-year Master of Fine<br />
Arts degree program combining full-time employment<br />
at CST with graduate-level coursework. Participants<br />
get the best of two worlds – cutting-edge theoretical<br />
work in the classroom and the opportunity to apply it<br />
through hands-on, real-world training at CST. A fast<br />
track to the highest levels of not-for-profit manage-<br />
ment, the Arts Leadership Program is cultivating a<br />
generation of individuals who, in the years ahead, will<br />
guide the business of art to new heights.
