What to expect
Planning a visit to Studebaker Theater at the Fine Arts Building
Choose the Studebaker for a staged or chamber-scale production in the Fine Arts Building rather than a large opera house. Confirm the presenter, production, seating or admission format, run time, accessibility arrangements, and ticket terms on the event page, then review the building's current Michigan Avenue entrance, transit, parking, elevator, and event instructions before arrival.
