MISSION
HISTORY
Bailiwick Repertory produces diverse works, ranging from classics to cutting edge, and demonstrates fiscal responsibility while remaining affordable, accessible, and responsive to our community.
Since its founding in 1982, Bailiwick Repertory has consistently endeavored to achieve the vision of gifted directors in productions that have been as diverse as our audiences. We have also worked hard to remain accessible, affordable, and responsive to our community. With the director as fulcrum of our artistic process, Bailiwick has been recognized with more than 150 Citations, Nominations, and Recommendations from the Jeff Committee for all aspects of production. We have also received more than three-dozen After Dark Awards, several Black Theater Alliance Awards, and the Pride Series has been inducted into the City of Chicago's Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame and been the recipient of the Torch Award from the Human Rights Campaign, the only theatre in the nation to be so honored.
