Dream Theater Company History Founded in the spring of 1998 by four Americans studying at the Moscow Art Theatre. Encouraged by their teachers to bring the Russian acting techniques they had learned to the United States, the four founders set out to develop a psychological theatre that would reach its audience members in a new way, eliminating the barriers between patron and player. Using the universal experience of dreams as a model, Artistic Director and founder Jeremy Menekseoglu (along with a small company of actors) set out to create a style of theatre that was as vivid and vital as a surreal dream. Now a permanent fixture in the Chicago Theatre Community, Dream Theatre Company has been recognized as an innovator of new theatrical work. Their Pilsen store-front theatre has become an epicenter of bold stagings of all original plays. Dream Theatre Company was chosen as Best Off-Loop Theatre Company in 2010 by the Chicago Reader. Dream Theatre Company is a member of The League of Chicago Theaters.
