The Chicago Theater
Do you have an hour to kill today? Then, you should take a tour of the Chicago Theater. According to the website, “The tour encompasses historical and architectural highlights of the building, including the grand lobby areas, majestic auditorium and backstage space (when possible).”
At first, that sounds a little bit on the dull side, until you check out photos of the building…
Wow. You have to admit that is pretty amazing.
Tour Schedule
April 1 - September 30: Weekly tours take place every Tuesday and Thursday at 12pm
October 1 - March 31: Weekly tours take place every Tuesday at 12pm
Cost: $5 per person - which includes a souvenir VIP badge.
There are also sometimes special Saturday tours that include possible demonstrations on the Wurlitzer organ.
Does that make me a nerd, if that sounds REALLY REALLY cool to me?
