Join Our Team

We’re not currently hiring, but we’re always happy to meet people excited to join The Understudy team. Whether you’re a book lover, theatre fanatic, or coffee wiz, we’d love to hear from you.

The Understudy is made up of passionate, curious, and outgoing people who know their way around the Chicago theatre scene. If that sounds like you, we’d love to get to know you.

“Have a belief in yourself that is bigger than anyone’s disbelief.”
