Mitchell Kobelinski Theater

We have the sole surviving venue with atmospheric-styling of all Chicago theaters, designed by architect Mason Rapp of the prestigious firm of Rapp & Rapp. Built in the 1930’s, it has a unique vintage ambiance missing in most Chicago theaters. It is accented by classic red theater seats and a breathtaking blue ceiling which resembles a star-filled sky. Yes, the stars in the ceiling are lit for performance – a crowd pleaser!

Originally a cinema house, much has been achieved to both modernize, but preserve, this jewel of Chicago theaters. The Copernicus Center has become a popular concert venue on the Northwest side of Chicago with bookings every week. Click here to learn more about our historic main theater.

Theater rental clients benefit from event listing on our busy Website, Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks. Our professionally managed ticketing provides producers/promoters with a large affiliate network …. resulting in higher ticket sales.

Live concerts and performances will benefit from a large “thrust” stage and two dressing rooms on either side of the stage. In addition to great visibility from all seats, large screens on both sides of the stage are a crowd pleaser. Amenities required by large shows are easily available.
