Chicago Theatre

The Chicago Theatre, apart from its use as a venue for artistic performances, is a thing apart from most of the city buildings. Its logo and canopy became true Chicago icons long ago, although they are not part of the original building. It is surprising to know that the current marquee isn't authentic either because it was completely renovated a couple of years ago yet it kept its famous appearance. The historic marquee was donated to the Smithsonian Institute... The building is very ornate, with some parts in Renaissance and Second Empire style. I can not say much about the inside, but the outside doesn't catch your eye.

A theatre tour worth the experience.

It's a landmark in Chicago, in particular the "Chicago" signage on the outside that tourists love to take photos off. It's probably the one sign that is synonymous to Chicago for me and the one that was always on my bucketlist for the Windy City. If you can, take in a show at the theater, if not be sure to take the tour to get a sneak peek into how grand this historical landmark really is. Day or night, the "Chicago" sign is the perfect photo opp, so make sure and take both!

Fun and fun
