The oversized contribution Chicago has made and continues to make to the American entertainment landscape comes in no small part from its vibrant and varied theater scene. With well over 200 theaters, from small stages featuring intimate fare to larger houses sending major productions to Broadway and beyond, it’s difficult to find any American film or television series that doesn’t have roots that trace back to Windy City stages.
Chicago has the distinction of receiving the most Regional Tony Awards of any city, for major theaters including Steppenwolf, the Goodman, Victory Gardens, Chicago Shakespeare and Lookingglass.Second City But Chicago isn’t simply a training ground or a springboard to the coasts, nor is it just about actors and writers. There’s an entire ecosystem of professionals living and working in all sides of film, television and theatrical production.
Jobst points to Chicago Made, an Illinois workforce development program where hands-on training both provides career development while helping productions, as well as the Illinois Tax Incentive, which she says provides a professional stability, allowing workers to feel confident in pursuing and maintaining a sustainable career in Illinois in the entertainment industry.
