Historical Note
Court Theatre was formed in 1954 with staff and actors drawn mostly from the Hyde Parkcommunity. The theatre began productions in the summer of 1955 with strong ties to theUniversity Theatre and the less traditional student-run “Tonight at 8:30” series.
University Theatre director Marvin Phillips played a pioneering role in the early years of Court.After completing a year of classical and avant-garde productions at the University Theatre,Phillips, according to a student helper, one day was standing at a window on the second floor of
4
Mandel Hall, overlooking the courtyard when he exclaimed, “We’ve got to have a theatre outthere! Right in the middle, we can build a stage on the fountain and use all the walkways, theroofs, and the buildings and windows—we can use this whole, airy courtyard. We can seat themon the grass, right in the middle of the triangle that’s made by the walks."
Phillips quickly assembled a financial prospectus and won approval to use the courtyard usedto present outdoor theatre. In the summer of 1955, Court performed its first production,Moliere’s The Doctor in Spite of Himself. Though audience and critical feedback was positive,the artistic team was soon to learn an enduring lesson of performing theatre outdoors. Its secondplay, Moliere’s The Forced Marriage, opened to four consecutive nights of rain, forcing theproduction indoors. When the rain passed the productions returned to the court. Havingthe chance to compare the indoor and outdoor productions, Phillips and the members of theburgeoning Court community realized that outdoor staging of Marriage caused many of the linesto lose their subtlety, and that the best performances of the play were those done indoors..
In subsequent seasons, Court gained increasing attention among the Hyde Park community withits unwavering dedication to performances of the classics. Some of the earliest productions wereThe Trojan Women, Salome, The Alchemist, Dr. Faustus, and The Imaginary Invalid. In the1960s, the Court began to reach out to a larger metropolitan audience. Advertisements for thesummer season, as well as for the newly-added modern jazz series (which included luminariessuch as Duke Ellington) were placed in city newspapers. Increased advertising and publicityaided in attracting the attention of Chicago newspaper critics. In time Court would become thelargest performing arts organization on the South Side of Chicago.
In 1962, Robert Benedetti became artistic director. Benedetti was interested in pursuing thesort of controversial theatre which had drawn attention the previous year, when a production ofUlysses in Night Town prompted a campaign within the University to withdraw the play on thegrounds that “Court Theatre shows should be something parents can bring their kids to." The1962 season was artistically adventurous, with performances of The Knight of the Burning Pestleand The Dybbuk. The experimental plays brought little financial support and harsh reviews. Thefinal production of the season, an acclaimed performance of Pantagleize, fared better, pleasingboth audiences and critics.
In 1963, Court changed course with a season entirely devoted to productions of classic plays,in particular those of Shakespeare. This season turned out to be the most successful, criticallyand financially, thus far. In addition to the thematic choice to return to classic plays, the spikein attendance at Court was partly helped by local changes in the Chicago area. Between 1962and 1963 Chicago’s three daily newspapers added substantial theatre supplements to their pages,supplying Court with free publicity and new patrons. The last production of 1963, King Lear,captured national critical acclaim more so than any previous Court production. Attendancerecords were broken, and the play was broadcast on the CBS Repertory Theatre.
The 1964 season also marked the last summer that Court was under the overall direction ofBenedetti, who resigned his position to join Second City. He was succeeded as artistic directorby James O’Reilly, under whom the theatre continued its presentation of classic plays with afew more recent titles, such as Dylan Thomas’s Under Milk Wood and Arthur Miller’s The
5
Crucible, and began a series of winter productions. One of the most accomplished Courtproductions of this period was Richard III, in 1969, where O’Reilly directed his successor,Nicholas Rudall, in the lead role.
Rudall became artistic director in 1971. Under his direction, Court became a University-basedrepertory theatre, and in 1975 an Actors’ Equity theatre. The move cemented Court’s reputationboth within Chicago and nationally. In 1981, Court built a new home, the intimate, 251-seat Abelson Auditorium, and in 1983 the theatre incorporated as independent non-profitorganization.
