The Chicago press has been incredibly complimentary, calling us "provocative", "relevant" and "exciting." But it was the enthusiastic support of people like YOU that made this first season possible. And for that, we are truly grateful.
In this economy, with so many theater companies in Chicago, you may wonder why we do this. We believe that theatre has the power to inspire, enlighten, and alter the collective consciousness. This belief drives us to create theatre that teaches, reaches the under-served, and elicits action toward global harmony, stewardship and unity. Every person and community has a story to tell. It is Bailiwick Chicago’s privilege to tell it.
You may not be aware that ticket sales for our productions only cover about 40% of the costs needed to tell these extraordinary stories. Our 2011 season, shaping up to be just as phenomenal as our first, will not happen without your generous support to help us reach our fundraising goals.
