Lucid Theater has a history of lauded productions in Chicago since 2017, including: Leda, Lean Scenes, Charlie Johnson Reads All of Proust, and Metadata. We also have a podcast and YouTube channel. Originally called Continuous Dream, we were inspired to adopt the new identity of Lucid Theater, with the idea that a play is a lucid dream. Continuous Dream remains the name of our podcast, while our stage production wing is now Lucid Theater.
In the meantime, check out our podcast here on Spotify, with further info about the podcast on its own website here. Feel free to reach out to us at continuousdreamtheatre@gmail.com. Thank you for your support.
