DEAR FRIENDS,

This year marks the twentieth anniversary of our move to Navy Pier. During our inaugural season in what is now our artistic home, we presented seven productions across our two theaters. We have since grown exponentially, adding The Yard at Chicago Shakespeare, building a nationally recognized education program, curating a vibrant WorldStage Series, launching new plays and musicals, and expanding our annual schedule to feature as many as twenty productions. Highlighting our commitment to new work, new voices, and artists who redesign traditional storytelling paradigms is SIX, an electrifying new pop musical by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss. Our newest venue, The Yard at Chicago Shakespeare, is the perfect home for this genre-defying work, directed by Moss and Jamie Armitage. What began as a small project for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe between writers and friends Marlow and Moss while in their final year at Cambridge has since taken the West End by storm, garnering five Olivier Award nominations. Through powerhouse pop, SIX gives voice to six often overlooked by L . FRANK BAUM with music and lyrics by queens—the wives of King Henry VIII. Aragon, Boleyn, Seymour, Cleves, Howard, HAROLD ARLEN and E.Y. HARBURG and Parr unite to reclaim their places in history through an exuberant celebration adapted by JOHN KANE of female empowerment. directed by BRIAN HILL choreographed by KENNY INGRAM While SIX plays in The Yard, Shakespeare’s timeless 400-year-old masterpiece Hamlet, staged by Artistic Director Barbara Gaines, plays in the Courtyard Theater.

The work is enjoyed by 225,000 audience members annually, with one in four under the age of eighteen. Chicago Shakespeare is the city’s leading presenter of international work, and in touring its own productions across five continents has garnered multiple accolades, including the prestigious Award.
