About This Venue
|
One of Chicago's newest commercial venues, the Mercury houses a 328-seat proscenium-style theater (with about 60 in the balcony) that combines contemporary elegance with a classical flavor, including continental seating (no center aisle) and restored seats from a 1930s vaudeville house.
Variety is the goal, with offerings including touring and local theater productions, one-person shows and music and dance showcases. The Mercury is connected to Cullen's Bar & Grill, which boasts a full bar as well as appetizers and dinner menu for dining before or after the show.
