    Great Performance

    by Palmer Family on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    I wasn't really sure what the musical was all about. However, the singing was outstanding and so were the performances by the actors. It was captivating! I took my mother who was recently widowed. She too enjoyed the show and is still talking about it!

    by DGP on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    Seeing it again after 25 years Ibwas not disappointed. The CIBC did a great job following COVID protocols. We felt safe, and could relax and enjoy the show.

    A pillar obstructed my eyesight from my seat

    by Quina on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    My friends booked the tickets for us but I found there was a pillar in front of my seat, I cannot see all the stage all night. I talked to the officers there but no one could help and told me I should have know when we bought it online. But I am very certain that there was no reminder or instructions on the seat sheet showing that we would be obstructed. The show is nice, but I dont understand why seats like mine are selling and without any reminder

    Theatre is back!

    by Maya on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    My first show since the pandemic and I felt very safe. I really appreciate that vaccination is required for everyone and that we all had to wear masks. It felt strange being in a full theatre but I felt very safe with all the precautions that were in place. Ushers were helpful and lovely. Show was absolutely fantastic. The magic that happens inside a theatre is one that cannot ever be diminished. So happy to be back.

    Incredible.

    by ForgetRegret on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    As good as or better than the original Broadway cast! This was the first musical I ever saw in a theater in NYC, and I'm so thankful I was able to experience the farewell tour.

    Amazing!

    by Felicia on 10/13/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    First time seeing a show since Covid and it was phenomenal! The Covid protocols made me feel safe. I wish the lines were shorter because I wanted to drink during the show but overall everything was wonderful!!

    unpolished

    by slowrunner on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    It was great to be back in a theater seeing a live production with a packed house. But it wasn't appropriate to bill this show as "Broadway in Chicago." Several leading cast members had never had leading parts before this production, and it showed. There were some magical moments for sure, and a couple of the cast members were really strong, but some performances felt really unpolished for a show billed as "Broadway in Chicago."

    Exceptional performance

    by Wms on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    First time seeing Rent. Cast was great. Venue is beautiful. Only challenge was parking structure (be sure to know which structure you pre-pay for). Great overall experience.

    Just a great show by a great cast

    by Rob on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    Total blast to see a show again finally. Such a great great experience. Very grateful to have the attendees screened for vaccination. An ideal option to just require vaccinations and not inaccurate testing results.

    PHENOMENAL

    by Mandy on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    The show is flawless as expected. However it exceeded all expectations between audience reactions and the performances of the cast.

    RENT

    by Soos on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    This was the first time I saw RENT and now that I have, I don’t know why I waited so long. It was fabulous! What a talented and energetic cast. Now I want to see it again!

    Rent, 5th row

    by Dawn on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    We splurged and fifth row seats as part of a anniversary weekend. So glad we did! It was absolutely incredible to see all the actors faces so close to appreciate the nuances of their performances beyond their marvelous singing. I believe the Chicago run has ended but if this comes up in your city - GO!

    Loved it!

    by KJ on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    This is the second time I have seen rent. The 1st time I saw it was in 1998 with the original cast. I loved it then and I loved it this time. This cast had just amazing voices!

    Fantastic Experience

    by Batwomn59 on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    I bought the suite package with our tickets and it was well worth it! The performance was one of the best I’ve seen. The voices were exceptional as was the acting. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Paying twice for parking

    by RD on 10/12/21CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    The show was amazing, but Ticketmaster is a master at ripping you off with their parking offer. I paid in advance for parking, and although the parking garage accepted my QR code upon entry, it still charged me full price fir parking as I was exiting!
