City Lit Theater, in Edgewater is the seventh, longest-running theater company in Chicago. We were founded in 1979, with $210, and are now into our 45th season. We are about to open our 156th production. City Lit Theater was the first in the nation devoted to stage adaptations of literary material. At City Lit’s launch event, our founders were able to read a congratulatory letter we had received from Tennessee Williams. We have been associated with many great theater folk from Chicago and beyond.
