Chicago’s small, storefront theaters are making a huge impact on the city’s cultural landscape, according to a new survey released by the Chicago-based Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation. The foundation annually awards unrestricted grants to Chicago theater companies with budgets under $1 million.

Forty-one of Chicago’s 250 theaters participated in the survey, whose results revealed that more than 260,000 people attended productions at storefronts last season alone.

The survey noted that 100% of the surveyed companies reported a commitment to inclusiveness, diversity and accessibility “through their mission, selection of productions, community engagement initiatives, educational programs and/or day-to-day operations.”

In addition, more one-third of productions staged by the surveyed theater companies were world premieres.
