The 40th Anniversary Free Season is a HUGE undertaking. Because of this we can not offer any specialized tech/productions schedules, added hours, or accommodate any special production needs. Each show will be provided with a standard technical schedule and provided with one in-house Lighting Designer/Production Stage Manager.
If you want to bring your own project-specific lighting, sound, or technical designer you must obtain permission from Links Hall staff to do so and they must work with is the preset schedule under the supervision of the in-house LD/PSM. Schedule Examples are bellow.

Terms and Conditions:
Though Links Hall has several programs, such as the Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival, that will run in studio B this season Linkage partnerships performances are only available in Studio A.
If you request a specific in-house LD/PSM who you have worked with before Links Hall cannot guarantee that we will book then for your production, but fear, not all our tech staff are excellent human beings and designers.
Links Hall can not rent specialized equipment for your production or provide any equipment not available on site. Please check our inventory for Studio A HERE.
Links Hall cannot provide traveling or housing support for touring artists or support for prop or set sourcing.
Links Hall does not provide any design/production support beyond our in-house LD/PSM during their contracted hours but does handle ticket pre-sales, house management, and provides basic marketing support in the form of press releases and online listings.
