Evening curtain is at 7:30 PM, Saturday matinees at 1:30 PM, and Sunday matinees at 3:00 PM. The October 11 Sunday matinee is a sign-interpreted and audio-described performance. Tickets are available by calling (216) 241-6000, at [greatlakestheater.org](https://greatlakestheater.org/shows-events/shows/2026-27), or in person at the Playhouse Square Ticket Office.

[The Hanna Theatre’s thrust stage, with seating arranged so no seat is more than 13 rows from the stage, is described by resident company Great Lakes Theater as an intimate, immersive setting that brings audiences close to the action.](https://www.greatlakestheater.org/your-visit) [Liberty University’s Department of Theatre Arts presents *The Winter’s Tale*](https://liberty.edu/arts/theatre-dance/current-season) October 23 through November 1, 2026, at the Tower Theater, located in [Marie Green Hall at 1971 University Blvd, Lynchburg, VA 24515](https://liberty.edu/arts/theatre-dance/tower-theater-directions). The October 25 performance at 3:00 PM is an ASL-interpreted performance.

A 7% Lynchburg City amusement tax and a $2 processing fee per ticket apply. Tickets can be purchased by calling (434) 582-7328. This marks Liberty University’s first production of the play, [directed by Neal Brasher as announced in Liberty News’ July 8, 2026 theatre season announcement.](https://liberty.edu/news/2026/07/08/upcoming-lu-theatre-season-will-showcase-stories-of-redemption-growth-and-joy) ## Patterns And Takeaways Across October 2026, Chicago Shakespeare Theater supplies the longest window, with performances running from mid-October through Halloween and continuing into December. Cleveland’s Great Lakes Theater offers an earlier window that concludes on October 11, while Lynchburg’s Liberty University anchors its run with an ASL-interpreted performance on October 25. The repertory model at Chicago Shakespeare Theater is a key structural distinction. One company of 14 actors performs both *The Winter’s Tale* and *A Midsummer Night’s Dream*, and audiences can see both productions in a single day later in the run on November 21, November 24, December 5, and December 12. Cleveland’s production uses a modern verse translation by director Tracy Young, commissioned by Play On Shakespeare, which creates a different interpretive approach from the standard text. [Liberty University’s official Theatre and Dance ticket page lists 2026-27 academic ticket pricing for adults at $20/$25, before a 7% Lynchburg City amusement tax and a $2 processing fee per ticket.](https://liberty.edu/arts/theatre-dance/tickets) Chicago’s box-office pricing does not appear on the production page. [The King of Tickets, an independent resale marketplace, lists 30 upcoming performances of *The Winter’s Tale*, all at the Courtyard Theater at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre in Chicago, IL, running from October 13 through December 12, 2026, with the lowest all-in get-in price of $93 available for the October 13, 2026 performance.](https://thekingoftickets.com/performer/the-winter-s-tale-tickets) ## Practical Reader Guidance Attendees choosing by location have three distinct U.S. markets. Chicago offers the widest date selection and the longest run, Cleveland focuses on early-October performances that end on October 11, and Lynchburg centers its run around an ASL-interpreted matinee on October 25. Chicago’s Navy Pier campus presents two venue configurations, the intimate Jentes Family Courtyard Theater thrust stage and The Yard, and both appear in the ticketing data for the same dates, so buyers should confirm which space their selected listing uses before purchasing. For Chicago, booking through the direct affiliate links above provides a straightforward path to face-value or box-office-adjacent pricing. The October 18 opening matinee is the official opening performance, and Halloween weekend dates on October 30 and 31 may draw additional demand. For Cleveland, the run ends October 11, so any attendee planning a trip should move quickly. For Lynchburg, the October 25 performance at 3:00 PM is ASL-interpreted, and the Ticket Office at (434) 582-7328 handles purchases directly. ## Frequently Asked Questions **How Many October 2026 Performances Of The Winter’s Tale Does Chicago Shakespeare Theater Have?** Chicago Shakespeare Theater presents *The Winter’s Tale* across multiple dates in October 2026, with tracked dates running from October 15 through October 31.
