Known as the “Gateway to the World,” Albany Park is the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in Chicago. From iconic theatre companies to museums, restaurants to parades to community gardens, our neighborhood is vibrant, alive, and growing. Families come here to take root alongside people who’ve lived here for generations. The small business is alive and thriving in Albany Park—and we love that. The story of Albany Park is the real story of America today.
Founded in 1997, APTP is one of the treasures of Albany Park. A multi-ethnic, youth theater ensemble, the actors are made up entirely of local high school students. Their critically acclaimed performances have become one of the hottest theater tickets in town. In addition to on-stage work, APTP also provides a tutoring and college access/success program for all ensemble members.
