Originally built in 1921, the historic Chicago Theatre was completely restored and redeveloped.  The theater and the adjacent historic Page Brothers Building were integrated into one complex, while preserving the existing exterior facade in order to maintain historic landmark status. Final upgraded theater includes the following:

  • 3,600-seat auditorium
  • Box office lobby
  • Reception suite
  • Concessions and 7,000 SF of retail and merchandising space
  • Administrative offices
  • Rehearsal hall
  • Dressing rooms
  • New MEP systems throughout

The project was completed on a tight 10-month schedule, in time for a pre-booked grand opening show with Frank Sinatra.
