Music Box Theatre
The Music Box Theatre, one of the best movie theaters in Chicago, is aptly named due to its dainty, jewel-like characteristics. It was built in the neo-Georgian style, which is more akin to a dignified manor or country home than the typical theatrical style of most other Broadway playhouses, and was designed by architect Charles Howard Crane in partnership with E. George Kiehler.
There is no better theater than the Music Box, a two-screen cinema that showcases the newest indie movies and documentaries, for movie buffs who don't care for classic Hollywood blockbusters. Gorgeous, with weekly midnight screenings of cult classics and frequent director Q&As held in the main theater. The popcorn at these concession stands is also butter-topped.
The theater offers a variety of entertainment throughout the year and has 437 seats spread between the main floor and balcony level. The Music Box Theatre provides accommodations for patrons who are blind, deaf, partially sighted, and/or have hearing loss. Every performance at the theater is accompanied by an infrared assistive listening device.
