$12 suggested admission, seniors and students $7, kids under 12 free. Tuesdays free for Illinois residentsExpect to experience the edgy in the black-box theater at the MCA. The steeply pitched seating area offers good sight lines from every seat in the house, but the sound is a little dry and doesn’t arrive with much force. It has only 300 seats, so finding one of your own can be a little tough, since the MCA tends to book artists with a fair amount of cachet.
