Our Mission
Chicago is smart. Chicago figured out how to make the first nuclear chain reaction. We figured out how to build the first skyscraper. We figured out how to get dead people to vote. Chicago is also funny. We created improv theater. We created a national phenomenon with very large, well dressed plastic cows. We created a law that makes it illegal to eat in a restaurant that is on fire.
Humor and Intelligence. It's this Chicago tradition that has produced Cubs fans, two Mayor Daleys, and that big silver space-ship thing on Soldier Field.
Theater Wit dedicates itself to producing plays that are both funny and smart. With groundbreaking new plays and classic works, we seek to engage our audience with wit and wisdom.
