City Lit Theater 1020 W. Bryn Mawr Ave. Chicago, IL. 60660 773.293.3682 Staff: Terry McCabe, Artistic Director- tmccabe@citylit.org Brian Pastor, Managing Director- bpastor@citylit.org Kristine Thatcher, Associate Director Katy Nielsen - Education Director Brandi Kennedy, Intern Winner of over 20 Jeff Awards City Lit was founded in 1979 and incorporated in 1980 by Arnold Aprill, David Dillon, and Lorell Wyatt. At the time it was the only theatre in the nation devoted to stage adaptations of literary material, a form that has since become quite popular. Over 33 seasons, City Lit has explored fiction, non-fiction, poetry, biography, essays, and drama in performance, and presented a wide array of voices, from classic writers such as Henry James, Edith Wharton, Oliver Goldsmith, Mark Twain, Colette, and P. G. Wodehouse to such contemporary writers as Alice Walker, W.P. Kinsella, Lynda Barry, Raymond Carver, Edward Albee and Ruth Prawer Jhabvala. As an Illinois not-for-profit corporation and a 501(c)3 federal tax-exempt organization, it keeps its ticket prices below the actual cost of operation and production, and depends on the support of those who share its belief in the beauty and power of the spoken written word. "City Lit Theater Company is dedicated to the vitality and accessibility of the literary imagination. City Lit will be producing concert readings and full-stage productions of adaptations of literary material, scripted plays by language-oriented playwrights, and original material developed especially for City Lit." --City Lit mission statement, 1980 and today
