The Lieutenant's Dream: An Immersive Theatre School Experience
written & directed by Dean Corrin, Lauren N. Fields, & Janie Killips

Kenneth Sawyer Goodman – playwright, businessman, and Naval Lieutenant – didn't live to see his vision of a uniquely Chicago theatre conservatory come to pass. Finally realized at the Art Institute of Chicago and now a part of DePaul University, The Theatre School celebrates its Centennial by inviting audiences to share the experiences of students over the last hundred years living his dream while discovering their own. The Theatre School partners with Birch House Immersive to create a journey through our building that honors that past and looks to the future.​
