Theatre and dance have an extraordinary ability to move us, challenge our perspectives, and connect us through our shared humanity. I’m excited to see @columbiachi’s @columbiacollegetheatre bring its 2026–2027 season to life, featuring productions including "Cabaret" and "The Color Purple." I invite our Chicago community, alumni, friends, and supporters to join us in the audience. Come experience the remarkable talent of our students, celebrate their artistry, and support the next generation of creative professionals. The arts thrive when we show up for them. I hope to see you at the theatre! 💙 #chicagotheatre #theatre #dance #collegetheatre
