The Greenhouse Theater Center is seeking applicants for its new Resident Theater Company Program that is set to launch in 2017.

The newly created initiative aims to foster the growth of itinerant Chicago theatre companies by providing affordable performance spaces and resources to expand audiences.

The Resident Theater Company Program features a weekly rental rate of $1,500, in contrast to the Greenhouse’s standard rental fees that are $3,000-$4,000/week.

Companies interested in applying for the Resident Theater Company Program should contact General Manager Maia Reed at gm@greenhousetheater.org or 773-404-7336.
