10 Things to do in Lake View That You Shouldn't Miss

January 28, 2022 Velvet Mowry

The windy city is a cornucopia of modern art, fine dining, cutting edge comedy, and die-hard sports fans. Snap a photo of your reflection in the silver Cloud Gate sculpture at Millennium Park before heading to Grant Park to get hit with the refreshing spray of Buckingham Fountain. There are dozens of museums and theater companies in Chicago, so a cultural experience is never hard to find. You’re sure to laugh your head off at the Second City Theater, the professional launch pad of many famous comedians.

The Mercury Theater

Reviewed By Rolshchikov-Dmitry - Moscow, Russia

I’ve watched Spamalot here, and it was my 1st experience of watching a musical on stage. The artists were excellent - singing, acting - everything beyond expectations. The theater is cozy, which makes you feel among family and friends in the audience; and all the seats, I’m sure, provide great view. You can discover a new work of Monty Python only limited amount of times, and I’m grateful to this venue for having had such an experience on their premises.

I have seen this show multiple times. It is always fun, especially for teens. The show is a combo pep rally, comedy act, drum show and concert. Hard to describe but always a blast. When I have relatives visiting from out of town, this is a sure fire way for them to have a good time.

Reviewed By susanl762 - Huntley, United States

Attending a show at the Music Box Theater is a treat! Starting with the outside marque and old time ticket booth, you are treated to the architecture of another era. We attended the 36th Annual showing of White Christmas and It's A Wonderful Life along with pre-show Sing-a-Longs with the Music Box House organist and "Santa." Be prepared to enjoy the evening with a very enthusiastic audience! Perfect way to embrace the holiday season!
