American Blues Theater is an Ensemble of inherently collaborative theater artists. We re-envision great American classics and reach out to the Chicago theater community to create new work that reflects our working class roots and celebrates the diverse American character. We dedicate each production to the working people of our region and partner with social service and community organizations.
