The History of the Chicago Theatre
There are few marquees that are as famous as the Chicago Theatre on State Street, bringing the finest entertainment to the city of Chicago since 1921. The majestic staircases, elegant lobbies, and art deco stylings of the auditorium combine with that once-revolutionary, now-classic marquee for a theater unlike any other – just like when it founded. The Chicago Theatre kicked off the string of lavish movie palaces of the 1920s and 30s, seating up to 3,600 and rising up to seven stories high.
In the first 40 years, the Chicago Theatre brought the finest live entertainment to the city, including Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, and Jack Benny. Business fell as the demand for live entertainment waned, leading to the closure of the venue in 1985. In 1986, however, the theatre was restored through a joint effort by the Chicago Theatre Restoration Associates and the city, reopening with a performance by none other than Frank Sinatra. And it’s gone on to host musicians ranging from Arcade Fire to Alicia Keys to Dolly Parton as well as comedians and entertainers like Robin Williams and Ellen DeGeneres.
It’s an incredible venue, and you can trust Signature Transportation to take you to your show in style.
