The Music Box Theatre is the premiere venue in Chicago for independent, foreign, documentary, and classic films.

3733 N Southport Ave, Chicago, IL 60613, USA

Music Box Theatre

A truly magical place, our original auditorium was built in 1929, designed to have the atmosphere and look of an outdoor Mediterranean theater, with twinkling stars and clouds overhead, and sandy stucco walls. The Music Box wasn’t a movie palace with thousands of seats, but a smaller, more modest neighborhood theater, just big enough to feel grand, but small enough to feel like home. One thing that makes it special today is that the auditorium remains intact, and was never chopped up into smaller theaters (a common fate for similar venues).

Theatre 1

2022_MBT_MainAuditorium-Curtain_144dpi.jpg

Our garden behind the Music Box Lounge seats up to 40 comfortably and we have public screenings all summer long! So grab a cocktail and head out back for movies under the stars on our 4k laser projector. And just like Dracula, we refuse to press play until after sundown because otherwise no one will have any fun.

Whether you want to grab a drink, discuss a film, or play a board game, our cozy lounge has been providing the perfect spot for cinephiles to meet up before or after a movie since 2015. We have a full menu of beer, wine, and a rotating cast of movie-themed cocktails. Enjoy drinks inside while watching VHS tapes from our extensive collection, or take them outside to our dog friendly garden or patio. No ticket? No problem! The Music Box Lounge is open to everyone, whether you’re seeing a movie or not (although we highly recommend it)!

This 100 seat auditorium was built into a storefront adjacent to the original theatre in 1991, and transformed in 2013 into a comfortable 70-seat screening room with a new sound system, digital cinema projector, and new seats. Theatre 2 is a wonderful place to catch films that may not be able to fill a 700-seat room, but deserve our attention nonetheless. Smaller screening rooms are traditionally places where directors go to watch dailies (unedited footage from a day’s shooting), or critics see films for the first time. Our screening room is dark, cozy, has great acoustics, and little to distract, so you can focus on what’s important, the movie!
