2025-2026 Season

< Press Room

Thank you for your interest in Goodman Theatre!

Cheers to 100 years! Walter Artistic Director Susan V. Booth and Executive Director John Collins announce an epic line-up of world-class talent for The Goodman’s upcoming Centennial 2025/2026 Season. Stage and screen stars, internationally acclaimed musical artists and Chicago favorites join for a celebratory season that at once honors the past and sets a bold stage for The Goodman’s second century. Eleven productions—six world premieres (including two musicals) and one revival, a major new downtown cultural attraction and three annual productions—plus a year-long citywide event and a festival of new plays—are set for the 100^th year of Chicago’s largest not-for-profit resident theater, beginning in September 2025 and continuing through August 2026.
