Goodman Theatre, Chicago, Ill., opened in 1925. After the
Cleveland Play House this is the oldest regional theatre in the United States, donated to the Art Institute of Chicago by the parents of the playwright Kenneth Sawyer Goodman in memory of their son. Seating 683, it was intended to combine a school of acting with a resident professional acting company; but the Depression forced the company to close, though the school continued to flourish. In the 1950s a subscription series of plays was introduced during which professional guest artists performed with students. In the 1960s it once again housed a fully professional company, the student productions being moved to the adjacent Goodman Theatre Studio, seating 135, until in 1977 the theatre was incorporated as the Chicago Theatre Group Inc. and the school ceased to be connected with it. The Mainstage theatre now offers six productions a year, classic revivals and works by new authors, while the studio theatre houses smaller productions. David
Mamet was for a time playwright in residence.
