I've been to countless shows here - I've even filmed a performance here - and I couldn't love this place and it's awesome people more! Check out the online shows they're a part of and their cocktail sales during shutdown - their bartenders are absolute wizards with both boozy and non-boozy cocktails!

Brought the wife for a show and it was phenomenal! Great time with even greater performers! They do shows every Saturday at 7pm and we will for sure be back! If you’re not local, make sure to get there early to find parking. Make sure you bring your vaccination cards. Also bring your own mask for walking around if you don’t want a throw away one from the bar. Great area. I would even suggest pregaming before going but drinks were decently priced.

OMG I cannot recommend this place enough!! It’s such a unique and fun spot for a solo activity, date night, bachelorette parties, or just something unique with friends! They have tons of shows to choose from and you can even take lessons here. I went for a burlesque show and loved it! The performers are extremely talented and funny!

This little historic space formerly named Links Hall is a treasured performance space for contemporary performance art, as well as housing a school for various types of performances. The energy here is virally positive, happy, supportive, funny, and sexy.

Best theater in the world. I've been coming here for shows since 2018, and the acts are of the greatest quality. Grab a friend, pick a show, it'll be a great time no matter what you pick, from comedy to dance and even burlesque. This is my home away from home.

Saw the leg land and loved the show because of the intimacy of the space and the closeness of the action. The skits were clever, funny and original. So not the predictable, everyday boring reruns. The crowd was all into it also so the energy was amazing: there a small bar in the back for refreshments. hope to see more shows like this at the theatre. Only negative was it was a bit hard to find and and not that accessible . Otherwise, great show and great theatre

Wow, what a beautiful space! This space is so cool and cozy, not to mention the talent behind running this Theater! I rented the space for a private recording. The staff were artists themselves, so they were able to give great direction on how to use the space, not to mention the amazing fully stocked dressing room and professional gear for the recording! Can't wait to go to a show here!

Went here tonight for the first time, Peak-easy was a great show! We've been to burlesque type shows before and this blew them all out of the water. As a beginner in pole, I highly respect the pole work I witnessed. All staff were great and we'll be back for more shows!

A great venue to see a variety of shows! Take a look at their website for upcoming shows! PeekEasy never disappoints if you are looking to see some Chicago Burlesque/Drag. Cocktails and Mocktails along with beers and WhiteClaws available at their bar! BRING YOUR TIPPING $$$$

WOW what a gem of a theater! The productions here are always so well produced- the vibe is like a charming speakeasy- and the bar has a wonderful selection and the cocktails are always on point! . I’m so grateful that they continue to require a proof of vax. It’s the norm in this day and age to simply have it on your phone. I feel safe that I’m in a group of likeminded adults that believe in science! . The first show I went to here I was concerned parking would be a beast but I quickly learned there’s actually pretty easy street parking or grab a cheap spot hero when there is a Cubs game. . I highly recommend this charming theater!

Amazing space to enjoy a show. Definitely support this performer-run space.

Truly horrible performance at this venue on Friday, March 4. The Leg Show was so unprofessionally executed and the writing was dull as dull can be. Really only one genuine laugh, but certain tables were guffawing as though something funny was happening...trust me, there wasn't. Their "props" were literally small cardboard cutouts, which they proudly offered to let you take photos with after the show. One actor literally fell off his pedestal and another somehow managed to drop more batons than he was juggling. One "costume" consisted of dirty, inside-out white tights. I think the tables that were entertained were these actors friends....someone should tell them the awful truth Some small arthouse productions work....this would absolutely does not.

Amazing experience! I have never met a more friendly staff in my life. Came to see my sister-in-laws improv class finale, but was impressed with the entire experience. Such a fun and intimate atmosphere with people who really seem to enjoy being there. Would love to go back soon!

I saw Raks Geek here on 3/11/22. Very nice, intimate venue. Has a bar; prices are reasonable.

Always a great experience at the newport. Intimate seating, good prices on drinks and unique shows.

Very great experience. Anghell is an amazing host and performer. We will return for sure. We also appreciate how serious they are about mask etc in such a small place. We felt very comfortable about attending.

This is my favorite place in the city. Drinks are delicious, shows are always a blast, and the folks who run this theater deserve all the credit. Five is not nearly enough number of stars for the newfound home for this queer heart.
