The lobby floor and staircases are still Italian marble, and the interior still has most of the original ornate wall sculptures.

Today the Vic Theatre is located mid-Chicago in the Central Lake View area, an eclectic neighborhood which is home to great restaurants, theater, and shopping. The subject property contains 14,098 square feet of building area situated on a parcel of land containing 12,340 square feet. The Vic can easily accomodate 1400 people with seating for 1000. We also have in-house lighting, sound, complete crew capabilities, easy load-in, and we are a Ticketmaster outlet. The theatre is easily accessible by public transportation.
