Season of Concern Chicago understands the difficulties that arise if a theater artist can’t work. That’s why we are proud to offer emergency financial assistance to Chicago theater makers in times of need.
Season of Concern was founded in 1987 to support Chicago theater practitioners afflicted with AIDS and AIDS-related illnesses. Thankfully as the AIDS crisis has become more manageable, we are able to expand our services to meet the day-to-day needs of theater artists who are impacted by any illness, injury or health related circumstance that prevents them from working.
