**changed, charged, and empowered.**
**Who We Are**
Founded in 1988 by graduates of Northwestern University, Lookingglass Theatre Company is a nationwide leader in the creation and presentation of new, cutting-edge theatrical works and in sharing its ensemble-based theatrical techniques with Chicago-area students and teachers through Education and Community Programs. Guided by an artistic vision centered on the core values of collaboration, transformation, and invention, Lookingglass seeks to capture audiences’ imaginations leaving them changed, charged, and empowered.
Recipient of the 2011 Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre, Lookingglass has built a national reputation for artistic excellence and ensemble-based theatrical innovation. Notable world premieres include Mary Zimmerman’s Tony Award-winning Metamorphoses, The Arabian Nights, and The Odyssey, David Schwimmer’s adaptation of Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle and Studs Terkel’s Race: How Blacks and Whites Think and Feel about the American Obsession, and David Catlin’s circus tribute to Lewis Carroll, Lookingglass Alice. Lookingglass’ work has been produced in more than a dozen US cities.
Lookingglass consists of a 33 member artistic ensemble, currently led by Artistic Director Kasey Foster. The ensemble partners in a distinctive collaborative leadership model with a 27 member Board of Directors, to be led beginning on September 1 by Board Chair Richard Chapman. Together an anticipated staff of 17 and a variety of contracted artists, technicians, and educators, the ‘three legs of the Lookingglass stool’ connect together to center a unique style of artistic work that flourishes through the appreciation and humility of each individual and each part of the company appreciating the others. Currently, the staff is co-led by General Manager Sarah Burnham, Director of Development Aurélia Fisher Cohen, and People and Culture Director Jazmin Jones-Oliver. In the period prior to the election of Kasey Foster, Lookingglass was led artistically by an artistic team that included Kasey, Kareem Bandealy, J. Nicole Brooks, and Phil Smith.
Lookingglass’ distinctive by-laws that illuminate the relationship between the Ensemble and the Board are available here. Next season’s anticipated operating budget is 4.36 million dollars.
**Our Core Values**
**Collaboration**
From the seminal, self-produced collegiate production of Alice in Wonderland, Lookingglass has always believed that the power of the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Lookingglass sees immense value in group history and experience, a collective vision, the dynamics of teamwork and the importance of leadership within that collaborative construct. Each performance is a collaboration between artists, story, and audience. Collaboration informs every aspect of how we produce theatre.
**Transformation**
Transformation is certainly at the core of all theatre and particularly vital to Lookingglass. Lookingglass uses visual metaphor, gesture, and daring theatricality to create transcendent staging. Fiction and non-fiction are converted into stage pieces. Actors are often required to play multiple characters outside their traditional range. Even the physical theatre itself reflects the core value of transformation - the infinitely flexible facility changes in configuration to best suit each new production. Transformation is reflected in the Lookingglass Mission Statement to change, charge and empower.
**Invention**
Lookingglass seeks to redefine the limits of theatrical experience. The ensemble uses multi-disciplined arts training and an ambition for innovation to invent new ways to develop and tell stories.
**Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion Commitments**
Lookingglass is committed to a set of Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion guidelines, which have been developed by a task force of representatives from our Board, Associates Board, Staff and Ensemble. These specific commitments and goals are available on our website, and we encourage active discussion of these guidelines with current and future members of the Lookingglass team.
**Our Theater**
Opened in June 2003, Lookingglass Theatre Company is located inside the Water Tower Water Works building on the Magnificent Mile in Chicago. The company shares this facility with the still-functioning water utility, which pumps 250,000 gallons of water to the north side of Chicago every day.
The main stage allows Lookingglass to reconfigure the stage and audience seating as dictated by the needs of each production, allowing for a maximum capacity of 240 persons, 60 of whom may be seated at the bal
