ROSECOLORED GLASSES
(RCGTHEATER.COM)A community focused production company, new to the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago.
We are a multidimensional organization. Not only do we dress up in costumes and makeup, make pretty music, and recite lines for your enjoyment, but we embody a strong sense of community. We are a pool of knowledge and skill.
We like fluff shows, but we also like to do shows that mean something, that teach, that open minds.
As a community theater, we believe in giving back to the community that supports us. We will be holding acting workshops, children’s theater and fundraising events to benefit local organizations, as well as good old fashioned volunteering in the community.
