The Little Pulse Provision: Supporting the Heartbeat of the Parent-Artist
At Pulse Theatre Chicago, we believe that the "Lifeline" of our company is the humanity of our artists. We know that being a creator doesn't stop when you become a parent, and we refuse to let childcare barriers stand in the way of visceral, award-winning storytelling.
The Little Pulse Provision is our commitment to the sustainability of the parent-artist. Whether it’s an emergency shift in your schedule or a lack of childcare, Pulse is here to ensure your "littlest pulses" are supported so you can stay in the flow. We offer:
In-Room Accommodations: A welcoming environment for children when life happens.
The Wrangler Program: With 48 hours' notice, Pulse can facilitate a dedicated child-sitter/wrangler for your rehearsal.
Emergency Safety Net: A 2-hour "call-ahead" window for childcare emergencies to help our Stage Management team pivot and support you.
We are more than a theatre; we are a family. By protecting the parent-artist, we protect the future of the American Stage.
