All's well that ends well!

"And so most joyfully we take our leave."

After nine wonderful years of putting Shakespeare into the hands and hearts of Chicagoland teenagers, the time has come for CYS to take a final curtain call.

And although we are sad to announce that Chicago Youth Shakespeare will be closing its doors later this season, we are also gearing up to celebrate, (yes, 
celebrate) our amazing community and all that we’ve accomplished together!
Join us on Wednesday, December 28th at the Epiphany Center for the Arts for one last Shakespeare performance, and one unforgettable celebration of the CYS Community!
