On Thursday, September 26, #GoodmanTheatre hosted our annual Fall Benefit for Education and Engagement, featuring an enlivening conversation between Artistic Director Susan V. Booth and Oscar Emmy and Golden Globe winner Helen Hunt, which raised more than $525,000 for our #Education and #Community Engagement programs. During the event, guests had the pleasure of hearing artists and program participants talk about what sparks their creativity. You can watch this video below.

About us
Goodman Theatre, Chicago’s oldest and largest not-for-profit theater, has won international renown for the quality of productions, the depth and diversity of artistic leadership, and the excellence of its many community and educational programs. Under the guidance of Artistic Director Susan V. Booth and Executive Director Roche Schulfer, the Goodman is committed to producing both classic and contemporary works, giving full voice to a wide range of artists and visions. Central to that mission is the Goodman Artistic Collective, a diverse group of outstanding theater artists whose distinctive visions have given the Goodman an artistic identity of uncommon richness and variety. By dedicating itself to three guiding principles—quality, diversity and community—Goodman Theatre seeks to be the premier cultural organization in Chicago, providing productions and programs that make an essential contribution to the quality of life in our city.
