About Theatre Y
Theater Y presents Jon Fosse's I Am the Wind at its Chicago venue on West Cermak Road. The production features two lifelong friends sailing into open water, with actors suspended on narrow swinging planks. Founded around two decades of theatrical work, Theater Y creates performances that engage with community stories and shared humanity. Its productions include Charges (The Supplicants) by Elfriede Jelinek and Not to Be, a film connected to the company's Inside Ensemble with men serving de-facto life sentences in Illinois. Theater Y also offers private screenings by request and launched a television series on CAN TV about the absence of parole in Illinois. Performances and screenings address companionship, loss, refugees, incarceration, and civic life through theater and film.
