Redtwist is one of Chicago’s beloved storefront theaters, with over two decades of quality production in Edgewater. Every season, we strive to create searing hot dramas that build empathy, dissect cruelty, and reveal broader truths about our humanity. We add a little red twist to every production by exploring the violence inherent in our humanity and confronting our audiences with the contradictions of our modern world. Since 2002 we have been creating quality entertainment in our intimate black box theatre in the Bryn Mawr Historic District. In 2024, we renovated our venue to turn it into a premiere space for neighborhood gatherings and collective storytelling with a focus on reviving the Bryn Mawr Historic district.
