Goodman Theatre's Women's Board
The Women’s Board was founded in 1978 to expand the community and financial base of the Goodman Theatre.
The current 55 members are among Chicago’s most active and philanthropic women. They share a passion for theater and play an essential role supporting Goodman Theatre productions and education programs. To learn more about Goodman Theatre’s Education and Engagement programs, click here.
