The Theatre School buildings are located at 2130 and 2135 North Kenmore Avenue on DePaul’s Lincoln Park Campus. In addition to housing most Theatre School classes, the buildings provide rehearsal rooms, design studios, shop facilities, script library, sound design studio, CAD lab, computer lab, and faculty and staff offices. The buildings are minutes from downtown Chicago by elevated train, bus or car.
 
DePaul‘s historic Merle Reskin Theatre, built in 1910 and formerly called the Blackstone Theatre, was purchased from the Shubert Organization in 1988 and renamed for a major donor in 1992. It provides The Theatre School with a professional-standard, state-of-the-art theatre facility to match the professional standards of the school’s training and productions.
 
The public productions of The Theatre School Showcase and Chicago Play works are fully realized at the Merle Reskin Theatre. Students begin their training as part of the backstage and house crew, allowing them hands-on experience in all components of the theatre profession.

The theatre is also shared with several not-for-profit arts organizations in Chicago and an occasional feature film company, exposing Theatre School students to a broader view of the entertainment industry. The DePaul Merle Reskin Theatre is located in the South Loop in the heart of the city. The Theatre School transports students via bus between the school and the  theatre for performances.
 
For the past several seasons the school has been producing the new director's series and several workshop productions in an 80 seat studio theatre at the Athenaeum Theatre building, one of Chicago’s main off-Loop theatre facilities..
 
The Theatre School is situated in the center of Chicago’s world renowned theatre community. Neighboring theatre and performing arts companies include the Steppenwolf Theatre, Victory Gardens Theater, Royal George Theatre, Apollo Theatre Center, TimeLine Theatre and the Theatre Building.
