We’re looking for teens seeking a creative outlet this summer to join the 2025 TimeLine South Ensemble! Learn skills in acting, writing, movement, and design from professional Chicago theatre artists and create a world premiere production. This 6-week program, which takes place on the South Side of Chicago, June 30 – August 9, is free to join AND pays ensemble members a $600 stipend. No prior experience in theatre necessary!

We’re thrilled to share that TimeLine’s capital campaign has raised nearly $40 million and our general contractor, Bulley & Andrews, has begun construction of our future new home at 5035 N. Broadway, near the corner of Broadway and Argyle, in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood! TimeLine anticipates opening our new building in early 2026.

Explore the program that brings TimeLine’s mission to Chicago Public Schools, working with students on creative exercises related to historically inspired stories on TimeLine’s stage and elsewhere in literature.
