This milestone year—which will culminate with the inaugural production at our new theatre in Uptown—brings three urgent stories to the stage, each confronting the political and personal stakes of our time. From a world premiere by a Chicago “triple-threat” playwright, to a biting satire of fractured community, to a fresh take on a searing classic, TimeLine’s 29th season is about meeting the moment head-on—and meeting you in our new artistic home.

We’re thrilled to share that TimeLine’s capital campaign has raised nearly $40 million and our general contractor, Bulley & Andrews, has begun construction of our future new home at 5035 N. Broadway, near the corner of Broadway and Argyle, in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood! TimeLine anticipates opening our new building in early 2026.

Explore the program that brings TimeLine’s mission to Chicago Public Schools, working with students on creative exercises related to historically inspired stories on TimeLine’s stage and elsewhere in literature.
