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 />

M. Hill Hammock<br />

Chair, Board of Directors<br />

“the depth of artistic talent is<br />

simply remarkable. i am eager to<br />

be a part of emerging plans at<br />

chicago shakespeare.”


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 />

opportunities for our community members to delve<br />

Audiences can obtain insight into the plays they see on<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.
