OUR 2025-26 SEASON

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.
