Located at 203 North Genesee Street in Waukegan, Illinois, the Genesee Theatre opened in 1927 as a grand movie palace and has since been restored as a versatile performing arts venue. With nearly 2,400 seats, it combines historic elegance—ornate plasterwork, crystal chandeliers, and sweeping balconies—with modern staging and sound systems. The Genesee hosts Broadway tours, concerts, comedy, and family programming, serving as a cultural anchor for Chicago’s North Shore. Its downtown location places it near restaurants, shops, and Lake Michigan’s scenic waterfront.
