412 Auditorium Theatre Tips
I felt a little of the a/c, but I was comfortable.
Parked in Grant Park South
Parked on Wabash for $10.
It felt like air conditioning was on; layer up.
I took the "L"
It was cold in the theatre.
Which was a little expensive.
Be aware that you're not allowed to bring drinks into the auditorium.
We parked across the street at the 'Park 1.' Cost $20
Layer and bring a cardigan. It was a little drafty in the first balcony.
No elevator beware.

The balcony is quite warm, wear layers for entry to take off at your seat.

Being that the gorgeous building is ancient, the stairs and flooring are uneven - beware.
Too Hot to Handel: The Jazz-Gospel Messiah
The Auditorium had the heat on full blast., Over dressing is not recommended.
ALWAYS use Goldstar's recommendations for parking!
