About the Harris Theater Millennium Park:
Chicago's Harris Theater, located at the north end of Millennium Park, is often overlooked by visitors heading to other park attractions like The Bean (Cloud Gate), Crown Fountain, and the Pritzker Pavilion -- don't make the same mistake and miss out on this entertainment gem in the heart of the city.
While the Harris doesn't have all the glitz of Chicago's Broadway-style theaters, it does feature a solid calendar of mid-sized non-profit arts and dance groups, as well as music acts often in conjunction with the Old Town School of Folk Music. The Harris also hosts touring orchestras and dance groups as part of its "Harris Theater Presents" series.
