What if democracy isn’t just a system—but a shared movement forward? Beginning Saturday, October 18th and running Saturdays and Sundays through November 9th, 2025, Chicagoans are invited to experience In Good Company, a theatrical walking performance that invites audiences to rediscover civic imagination, neighborliness, and common ground. Through immersive storytelling, live performance, and shared reflection, this one-of-a-kind event transforms city streets into a stage for community. In Good Company is an immersive, site-specific performance that blends theater, dance, music, and public dialogue. It invites audiences to reflect on what it means to be seen, heard, and connected in today’s divided world. When we see the world differently, how do we still move forward together? How do we rehearse and embody solidarity? The walks will each begin at 3PM at Theatre Y (3611 W. Cermak) and travel by foot through the neighborhood, returning to Theatre Y around 6PM for a FREE meal together. This performance and meal is entirely free, however the audience is invited to bring bread and/or fruit to share. Each performance will conclude around 7pm. All performances are FREE to the public thanks to members who donate as little as $5/month ($60/year). We welcome DONATIONS and MEMBERS!
